- The Top 40 QB Countdown is in full gear as Chris (@CSimmmsQB) reveals QBs 35-31, and Ahmed (@ahmedNBC) asks some of your questions about QBs 40-36. Plus, "What's My Grip?" features a look back at Kurt Warner's unique style. #NBCSports #ChrisSimmsUnbuttoned #NFL
Chapters:
(0:00) Ben Roethlisberger was underrated, even if he didn't know his grip.
(4:30) Behind the Curtain: What changed in this year's Top 40 process?
(7:30) #35 Jameis Winston: "Arguably the best big-play backup QB in the NFL. But there’s a DGAF aspect that you can’t completely trust.”
(16:10) #34 Bryce Young: "Great natural feel for the QB position. But there are too many games where he’s overwhelmed, and that scares me.”
(27:15) #33 Sam Darnold: “He still has starting-caliber traits, especially his quick release. But he’s been in bad situations that expose his mechanical flaws.”
(24:40) #32 Anthony Richardson: “His skillset alone makes defenses change the way they play. Sky’s the limit. But we obviously need to see him play more.”
(44:30) #31 Ryan Tannehill: “He can’t do the above-and-beyond anymore. But if you give him a few pieces, he can still get it done, especially downfield.”
(54:35) “What’s My Grip?”: After failing Monday, can Chris go 5-for-5 today?
(1:01:35) Homies react: Why is Kenny Pickett over Gardner Minshew? And why didn't Aidan O'Connell make the Top 40?

Top 40 QB Countdown: The Young & The Reckless | Chris Simms Unbuttoned (FULL Ep. 617) | NFL on NBC
/ nflonnbc - กีฬา
I loved watching his draft night special and seeing him faded and loving talking about football.
He’s okay but always ends up talking about himself like he was some good player.
As a panthers fan, I feel like we got Al Davis in his later years 2.0 as an owner in David Tepper. He’s running the team into the ground
Might I remind you that you had a bottom 3 offensive line, bottom 3 running back room, and the worst pass catching group (WR's/TE's) last year. Guess what you addressed in the draft?
You also upgraded your head coach from one of the worst hires in NFL history, to one of the best, proven offensive minds (Dave Canales). Some coaches are different by how they articulate. Canales will bring stability.
Eagles fans didn't believe in Hurts after year one. Same thing in Miami and Buffalo. You're in the same boat. At the very least, if he doesn't improve as a player, he will perform significantly better with what's around him.
Personally, I've watched him grow up. He has the mental makeup that can take all the criticism, the processing speed to exploit defenses, and one of the most accurate arms, to all levels of the field.
If Bryce Young was 63 220 he would have been one of the greatest QB prospects in history.
He doesn't play small. At least not often
Be fascinating to see how Richardson develops, or not, this season. Hoping he stays healthy. If he improves fast then he wont be at 32 next year but we still need to see if he can read the game well.
Big Ben & Phillip Rivers were dam near injury proof. They just played in the Brady/ Manning error
Chris Simms makes QB lists the way I used to make mix tapes back in the day.
Kyler Murray runs a 4.44. If he is the fastest guy on the Cardinals team then they have serious problems.
Absolutely fantastic pod and rankings… thank you guys
Why does it say unbuttoned but you have every button done up all the way to the neck
I've always wondered that
Ugh, casuals.
They'll come along@@FightYourCouch
It's called... ironic.
Irony dude. Jeez smh 🤦🏾♂️
38:53 richardson had some highlights despite him missing majority of the season. The rams game he made some plays for sure he just needs to clean up the mechanics
As a Saints and FSU fan Simms is spot on Jameis 😂😂😂😂. Jameis is a character on and off the field
Big Ben with the alleged rapes don't help his reputation
hunterXpatterson on youtube is a samartarian, no dirty laundry, never done anything wrong in his entire life, child of god, what are great man you are. Round of applause 👏 🔥🔥
@nsd_respect are you really implying you can't call out rape if you are not a perfect human being? You realize how insane that is right? lol
yeah, disney/ccp/nfl covered for him...star player
@@thesaintseye8974She lied about it 🤷🏻♂️
@@lordbudlett6520 so did Monica Lewinsky...
Chris, can you ask your colleague Mike Flores, oops I mean Florio, how it feels to be owned by Demeatrice Lamar Jackson?
How bro felt after typing that: 🦸♂️
Is this really about the BAL@SF game this year. Like he got something wron, not his first...not his last. I disagree with him multiple times a week but I listen to him.
Lol Lamar can keep his mouth shut until he makes a superbowl. Wasn't it the 49ers vs Chiefs? Huh
@@FightYourCouch I dont understand the original comment too much but u really want to censor or keep a man from tallking just bc his team didnt win it all. Dont really understand that mindset but I guess people can believe what they want too.
@FightYourCouch The issue had NOTHING to do with the playoffs. Stop deflecting! Facts are facts. Lamar made him look like a clown. And you cosigning makes you look just as foolish. Only 1 team can win the SB. That wasn't the argument.
could never forget that grainy security video of Jameis while in college just walking out of a grocery store with a giant box of frozen crab legs... without paying, of course...
I hope AR can have a great year this year, I mean 7 td’s and one pick in 4 games not bad. Just hope he stays healthy. I hope my colts have a decent year.
I love how the first 3 today are all number one or top 3 picks... the graveyard of busts
I feel like people did recognise how good Tannehill was in that three year stretch with the Titans, I remember thinking he was solidly in that 10-15 range of QBs, maybe bottom of the top 10 at one point
Sam Darnold is going to shock the world this season. Great OC, good O Line, plenty of preseason reps and support from coaches, game plan to suit his style... Vikings can afford to sit JMac most of the season, if not all of it.
Jaemis wasnt 30/30, he was 50/30. He's a solid player.
Rottenburger yeah.. Sure.. What a class act... Reminds me of Watson and Winston .. Not on the field.. But in restrooms, ubers, and with massage therapists.
And what does that have to do with qb play? This show isn't about what they do off the field. It's about what they do on it.
I extremely disagree with the Richardson comments. I watched every single colts game and I can barely remember him making “5 yard off” throws or any “screen play throws into the dirt.” It sounds like these guys didn’t watch the games and are just drinking the koolaid that he was inaccurate.
Agreed. AR was making split cover 2 seam throws most rookies can’t make.
He didn’t watch colts games obviously
He has literally attempted 84 passes in his NFL career - there's just not much to go off of to agree or disagree strongly in either way imo. I will say though it feels a little crazy to put AR behind any of this year's rookies not named Caleb Williams.
Always enjoy Chris Simms and his insights. 😏👍👍
The podcast in general is awesome, but top 40 really gets me hype for football
I think the AR take will not age well this season.
You think AR is better or worse than Simms ranking?
@@carrueba I think AR is going to be a top 15 QB in the league this season.
@@erikelisson2186he probably put him in this tier because he’s young and didn’t have a lot of film
Haven’t made it to list yet but if Daniel jones is any higher then this, the list is null and void
He ranked Daniel Jones at like 11 last year 😂 higher than Dak Prescott 🤦♂️
I can only imagine it’s because he’s still on Mara’s payroll. Go back and listen to what he said in his draft rankings. Everything he said was spot on… now he loves him 🤷🏻♂️
We back
Why so emotional about Ryan Tannehill?
Bryce Young is the Qb you draft when you have McCaffrey not when he’s gone
I normally side with Chris but he’s going to eat his words about AR. Dude will be surgical
58% comp rate. 3 passing tds, 4 injuries.
Colts fans need to pump the breaks.
Okay objectively where would you rank him rn?
It's basically a second rookie season for him. There's not enough tape for opponents to use against him. But it's worrisome that a guy his size keeps getting injured, even though the Colts are clearly trying to build protection around him unlike what they did for Luck.
@@GKA11111 probably high 20s
Jake Browning is easily one of the 40 best QBs on earth. Better than 3 or 4 of the people already on this list.
With the receiving core in Cin anyone would look good. but that's what happens when you pick a QB that can't elevate average receivers, you have to load up the offense
Jake Browning and Cooper Rush should be on this list above Kenny Pickett, Sam Darnold, Jamis Winston, and Anthony Richardson, Jarred Stidham. Easily.
I said in the last pod that without seeing Chris's list jacoby brissett is better then atleast 3 qb's 10:42 here's qb 1 even Flacco now I'm taking brissett so 2 already right after him.
Its youtube, why censor it?
Because it is techinically an NBC broadcast. Not youtube only. We get to see it sooner on youtube.It's on Peacock in a day or two.
When you're describing Bryce Young, I think I'm hearing what a young Russell Wilson would have been with a bad team. Russ was lucky to start out with Pete Carroll and a good Seahawks team. Bryce...didn't.
I think the ceiling fit Bryce young is tua. He can’t be better than that and tua is not tiny
How can Richardson be ahead of Bryce Young when Young has played a whole season and Richardson has barely touched the NFL field? Not to mention Young's experience in college was much larger than Richardson's.
Colts fans are gonna be so butt hurt over this ranking. Forget Will Levis, dude was ranked behind Tannehill lmao

I love your list...But you seriously need to slide Aaron Rodgers to "Aging Gunslinger" He is fried!! Lucky to see em as a "Game Manager" at 40!
@@markymark8949 I believe in the rebound!! But you are right... older age and coming off a serious injury.
Cool 👊
Why can’t we get the uncensored audio WITH the video 🤔🧐
right?
Jake Browning should be on this list. He's definitely better than a guy like Kenny Pickett
Chris right out the gate made gave me 3 qb's worse then brissett i guessed with out knowing the list now its probably more like 6 or 7 easy. Didnt know hed give 3 back to back. 🤦🏼🤷🏼♂️🤦🏼
Love the Ben love
35:26 pause 🍑
Oh shit, I just noticed it's a green screen.
The Packers are not the real deal, they're lucky the game against my Niners was in a rainstorm & Purdy couldn't throw the ball good. I'm tired of everyone already anointing Jordan Love the next great Packers QB. Everyone beats the Cowboys in the playoffs. They literally now have a culture of choking in playoff games. Stop it with the Jordan Love love. He needs to prove it in a full season.
Bryce Young shouldn't be on this list and Aiden O'Connell should be, come on dude, you've seen the tapes, you're BSing everyone here
Jake Browning should be before Jamis Winston, Sam Darnold, and those other bums you had from 35-40. HOW DO YOU BKT HAVE BROWNING ON YOUR LIST?! Browning is 4-3 as a starter and had 1937 yards 12 td, 7 ints, 71.4% completion percentage, 60.2 QBR, 98.3 passer rating. In 7 games. Do you honestly and I mean honestly believe that Jamis Winston or Sam Darnold could have done that last year? And Browning is better than Richardson too. Right now I would take Jake Browning over Anthony Richardson.
must say i agree 100%... well-said, ND79!
Chris is not a Colts fan
Simms Ranking is mortally flawed by excluding AOC, aka the Irish Cannon, from the list. Toss this in the trash, Simms. There are NOT 40 better QBs than AOC. Get your head out of your a__.
Aidan O'Connell will prove you wrong, Chris.
"You are wrong" - said in disfigured troll guy voice from 300 movie
we dont think Ben is great bc of the rape stuff
browns fan here
Isn’t Deshaun Watson your QB.
@@TWP13we dont want him, less than 20% of the fan base wants him
@@ouroborosnagyok9306 If he was as good as Ben, Browns fans wouldn't care.
Anthony Richardson at 32 is crazy. He had 7 tds in his first four games. This man is really saying AR is the worst starting QB smh.
He had 3 passing touchdowns and 4 injuries bro... Including a dislocated throwing arm
@@GRYNGE7injury concerns never changes anyone's rankings on guys like Joe Burrow, who sat out most of his rookie year, but Richardson gets treated like he's the NFL's Jonathan Isaac
It was weird to me how they mentioned the Rams game with only referencing his raw completion % but not his explosive play rate. He's the Anti-Game Manager
“Need to see more” doesn’t exist I guess, just give the guy the crown after playing 4 raw games because he’s an athlete
@@narddog2151 his 4 games were better than anything Tannehill has done since 2020
Woa hold on a minute man. You didn’t include Jake Browning I. Your top 40?? You believe that Sam Darnold and Anthony Richardson are better than Jake Brownjng as we sit here right now?? If you believe that Chris you are far more foolish than I thought. Brownjng should have been from 30-32 on your list. Jamie Winston is better than Browning? I think not. The Bengals had a HISTORICALLY hard schedule last year. They had the hardest schedule any team has had since the year 2000. They played 11 playoff teams and 14 teams that finished at .500 or better. Browning went 4-3 last year had 1936 passing yards, 12 tds 7 ints, a 98.3 passer rating and a completion percentage of 71.4, and a QBR of 60.2. It is fucking nuts and ridiculous that you have Jameis Winston, Sam Darnold, and Ryan Tannehill above Browning. Tannehill was aweful last year dude.
again, couldnot agree with you more & yer supported by FACTS... once again well-said ND79!
Please let me know does someone actually like ahmad repeating Novice Film Watcher, sort of like saying Chris Simms NFL analyst.. But seems unnecessary for it to be a repeated phrase
Still in SHOCK over the Bryce Young pick… too small, too slow, too weak, throws from toes, blind to segments of the field, fumbler … bust.
Let’s see how he does…u can tell if your qb is going to be elite with at least 25 starts or 3 seasons max…he’s goin to be just fine
@@evansspeightsdenzelwell we can see how it goes but we know he’s not gonna be an elite QB ever. He doesn’t possess the traits. He’s sooo small. It’s just not gonna happen. And that alone tells you that it was a foolish pick
Worst take ever. Rookie QB who was given the worst supporting cast in football. If you watch him, he makes incredible reads and has accuracy. Its way too early to call him a bust.
@@buddysteele7624 he was selected 1 for a reason…I’m just sayin look at the situation with Jared Goff when he was with the rams…no he may not have the arm talent like Goff but can he have the most intangible thing about the game…win…every thing is different when u win…we’ll see tho 😅
@@buddysteele7624oh look , another TH-cam comment nfl scout who thinks he has any idea what he’s talking about 😂🤡
God Ahmed is the worst. It really sucks that we have to suffer through Ahmed’s incessant unfunny, distracting jokes just to be able to watch and learn from Simms
Long standing Panthers Fan Here.
His Bryce Young take was pure BS. To the point where I lost a ton of respect for Chris Simms because it’s so far from reality. Anyone watching Carolina football last year can tell you Bryce played like his size didn’t matter. His Oline was nearly the worst ranked in the LG, his OC was a first timer who got fired, his HC didn’t know how to call a game and got fired, he is the third most sacked QB since sacks were recorded, he didn’t have a single WR who could separate AND we were the 30th in Run Block Success Rate (per ESPN) so our running game was a non factor. To not mention anything above and say Bryce left “a ton” of plays out there and they had to manage him “so much” is unfiltered BS.
I can only conclude that Chris Simms’ take lacked any semblance of reality is because he put Bryce behind CJ because of his size and got a lot of hell for it and now he’s double downing on his original narrative as an F you. This take was wild distortion of reality. You don’t gotta like Bryce because you fear his size but don’t mislead viewers.
AlexRollinsNFL did a great video on Bryce titled “The Panthers run ONE play on repeat” that is a far more accurate telling of Carolina and Bryce last year than Chris Simms could ever hope for.
Where do personally rank Chase? Somewhere in the middle...18?? Hoping he has time to throw? Diontae is nice target!
Bryce Young is trash 🗑
