As NFL coaches and executives touch down in Indianapolis this week for the league’s annual scouting combine, a multitude of quarterback conversations await. And the vast majority of them — for the next week or so — will have little to do with the 2022 draft prospects. As one league executive framed it Monday: “There’s three of the top five, six, seven quarterbacks in the league who are on the minds of a dozen [general managers].” That trio? Aaron Rodgers, whose future with the Green… Source link

If there’s any mutual discontent between the Arizona Cardinals and star quarterback Kyler Murray, the Cardinals are saying otherwise — publicly, at least.

The Arizona Cardinals‘ night was already going really bad, and then it reached ridiculous levels on one of the worst plays you’ll see a quarterback make in the playoffs. The Los Angeles Rams led 14-0 and had the Cardinals backed up, facing a third-and-7. Kyler Murray went back to pass and held the ball an impossibly long time looking for a receiver. Eventually linebacker Troy Reeder got to Murray and started to wrap him up for what would have been a sack and safety. It got worse. Murray… Source link

The men in the trenches who give them the time to set and throw the perfect spiral on the game-winning touchdown deserve a little recognition too, especially around the holidays. Ever since former Miami Dolphins QB Dan Marino famously gifted Isotoner gloves to his teammates in a memorable 1980s commercial, it’s almost become a cliché for the starting QB to at the very minimum give them a gift card to Outback… Source link

NFL coordinator: Fields more ‘pure QB’ than Kyler Murray originally appeared on NBC Sports Bayarea Every year leading up to the NFL draft, analysts make comparisons between college prospects and players currently playing in the NFL. When it comes to Ohio State QB Justin Fields, the dual-threat QB has been compared to Russell Wilson, Dak Prescott, or even a combination of the two.

Josh Allen appeared to have won Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals with one of the NFL’s best throws of the day to take a late Buffalo Bills lead. But Kyler Murray did him one better — much better. With Arizona trailing, 30-26 at the Buffalo 43-yard line with 11 seconds remaining, Murray escaped pressure and heaved a Hail Mary into the end zone down the left sideline. DeAndre Hopkins leapt through a trio of Bills defenders to make the grab and take the lead with 1 second… Source link
