The 2017 HS class was absolutely insane for QB’s! The Elite 11 QB competition composed the likes of Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields, Tanner McKee, DTR, Devin Leary, etc… I think Tanner ended up getting like 2nd or 3rd place at the Elite 11.
I've been waiting for this breakdown since mckees first preseason game his accuracy, timing and anticipation is honestly elite for a young 6th round pick QB. With a little bit more of practice and learning I would be fully confident in his ability to come in if hurts ever did get injured because this guy can sling it.
Yes! Wasn’t sure you’d do McKee but knew you’d have fun with his film. Dude was slinging and might’ve played himself into QB2 because his timing throws and spread game might mesh with the new OC.
Sirianni and Brian Johnson have both stated firmly that Mariota is the backup. However, if Mariota needs to come in and performs poorly I think he will have a short leash. He's been pretty dang bad so far in the preseason.
@@ad6499 and think that McKee has looked better with worse players with less reps. If they were both UDFAs only one would have a job next week I think.
@@ryanquinn1257 100%. They are only running with Mariota because he has experience. I'm not questioning that decision either, I dont love the sound of relying on a rookie 6th round pick as your backup. He's looked good but you still can't trust him like that yet. Not saying he wouldn't handle it, but there's no evidence yet. If Mariota is really going to be as bad as he's looked, he will play himself out of the job given the opportunity.
@@ryanquinn1257 i trust mariota being a good quarterback for 8 years over a 6th round rookie right now tanner mckee has looked good these games, and apparently hes looked good all preseason in eagles practices, but mariota was a good quarterback in the nfl last year and tanner mckee wasnt. until marcus mariota shows hes way worse than he was last year or tanner mckee is just so ridiculously good in every opportunity afforded to him i think that you just have to give the career starter the backup job versus a day 3 rookie
Mariota was definitely not good last year. Art (Falcons HC) did his best best to put him in good situations, but MM did a lot to lose games. McKee deserves the QB2 role, but hopefully Sirianni is able to stash him on the PS
I don’t think you broke down McKee’s first preseason game, but his play was better in that than the stats show just like you said for this game. Can’t wait to see what he shows in the last preseason game to cap it off.
Can you make a video about Mariota in preseason so far? I thought he'd be a good backup but so far he has been all over the place with his passes.. McKee might actually have a shot to get the QB2 spot
@@stevebabiak6997 No doubt.. But Mariota's performance is very worrying, specially because he's not lighting it up on practices either.. I'm guessing he'll be the backup just because his mobility would mean the offense wouldn't have to change much if he's out there. Read-options, RPOs, QB runs, etc, would still be on the table with Mariota
McKee was my pick for a late round QB. I had no idea who O'Connell was before we picked him but for 2 guys who are supposedly statues... they sure do look good playing the QB position.
what is keeping him from the #2 is he doesn't go through his progression, every throw is to the hot route and he is stairing down the reveivers. thats fine against backups, but but if the starters are in, thats pick six city
The eagles offense isn't about progressions they put two receivers in a defensive players' area and throw to the guy who isn't covered. What McKee is looking at is the position of the defensive player
Trey lance week 2 highlights vs Denver’s a great game to analyze. Such a clear example of a guy who just needs live reps. Started out slow and finished leading 3 scoring drives
Tanner McKee has been cooking! Great placement on his throws.
McKee, AOC, and DTR have been pretty impressive so far this year. Color me impressed.
Seeing McKee and DTR in the same game was such a treat.

McKee looks comfortable back there where as Mariota doesn't
Thank you for doing Tanner McKee
Been waiting for this to drop
As an Eagles fan-I appreciate you doing this video… an curious about your take on his throwing motion and release… seems unique.
Thanks...McKee has put up some good numbers, but I didn't think anyone would do a review of him.
I have faith in McKee being QB2
Love your stuff man; looking to join the Patreon community soon. Would really appreciate your take on Lance's performance vs Denver.
Been following tanner since he was in high school. Kid is a stud and has a good head on his shoulders
Can you do an analysis on Tyson Bagent?
very nice
McKee been way more impressive than Mariota this entire preseason.
Do Tyson Bagent from the Bears please, kid looks legit
Hey are you doing a breakdown on Daniel jones game
Yes! Wasn’t sure you’d do McKee but knew you’d have fun with his film.

Finally, a video with a RB actually blocking
Let’s Go!!! 🔥🏈🦅
Kids a top notch backup and will start some day

On the last throw, maybe he didn't step into it as much due to the Edge that was about the fall towards his lower half.
This dude has a future.

If the Eagles based it strictly on performance in the preseason games, McKee wins without a doubt. But they are considering other factors too …

@@rodrigoa1990 - he will mostly run because his throwing sucks.

Best QB analysis around. Case closed.
Have we had a preseason where this many young rookie QBs have looked this poised? It’s crazy across the draft board!
🦅
Mariota looks donezo. Let Mckee get 2nd string snaps next week
He should be the backup.
McKee is gonna get starts in the league for someone if he keeps playing like this
Tanner Mckee is the real deal pinpoint accuracy, size, good arm strength. Who cares if he is a rookie Mariota is a vet and he's complete dogcrap
GoBirds 🦅🌹
Please do CJ next 🙏🏽, you absolutely cooked him in his first game, he showed improvement, ofc still rookie mistakes but he’s learning 🔥
Desmond Ridder plz
Saludos
Que pedo
Mark my words....Tanner Mckee Will lead the Eagles to a Super Bowl. He is going to become a legit starter
GO BIRDS!
He better than Marcus to me if hurts isn’t playing this week we need to start him
Jets starting QB in 2025
Just get to Aidan O'Connell. Hands down the best rookie QB going these two games!
I know it's pre-season and all but this kid the other night looked outstanding. Mariota, on the other hand, looked horrible.
what is keeping him from the #2 is he doesn't go through his progression, every throw is to the hot route and he is stairing down the reveivers. thats fine against backups, but but if the starters are in, thats pick six city
The eagles offense isn't about progressions they put two receivers in a defensive players' area and throw to the guy who isn't covered. What McKee is looking at is the position of the defensive player
and no reason to go through more progressions when the guy you are looking at is open!@@subgenso6282

Are you serious trey lance is trash
This is great tanner looks so good out there
