Michael Penix Jr. Isn't Who We Thought He Was - QB Film Breakdown | Chase Daniel Show

You CANT tell me Michael Penix Jr is NOT one of the Top 3 QB’s in this years class if you’ve actually broken down his film & watched him. If you say different, you don’t know ball.
He’s a magician out there. He put on a performance for the ages vs Texas in Sugar Bowl.

Is Penix a Top 3-4 QB for 2024 NFL Draft?

[@user-mj8wz7gb3h]

YES

[@roryolson61]

I remember watching this game against Texas. It was a slugfest and Penix drove his team on the final drive to the score that won! He's going to be wearing Viking Purple!

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

I got him QB3. 2 Blue 🔵 QBs imo Maye and Caleb. 1st Rd QBs I have Penix (Per Medicals) as QB3. Bo Nix as QB 4. I think Denver gets him and he has atleast a Cousins like career. 2nd Rd Grades I have Daniels 5 he's 200lbs playing weight and you gotta build that up over time imo. A lot like Justin Fields just, Not as Good. An Elite Scheming Coach can do anything tho. 🤷🏻🤷🏻 Especially w/great OL. Then JJ McCarthy would be 6th. He's got talent

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

So Maye and Caleb Williams are Blue 🔵 imo.

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

I'm interested, Do you think Penix has to change his arm motion? As you know that will take time. I have him as my QB3. I actually have Bo Nix next and Jayden Daniels and JJ McCarthy with 2nd Rd Grades. McCarthy man 😅... Harbaugh is pimpin that dude. But they both getting paid. His accuracy is bad. He's a winner but, so was Tim Tebow.

[@dukeonwheels]

That Texas playoff game solidified it for me. It’s not often that a college QB wows me, but Penix did it again and again in that game. I immediately thought Falcons gotta get this guy, and praise be to God, they got him.

Neither does Aaron Rodgers. When you can consistently throw dimes, there is no need to go down the middle.

Perhaps he likes throwing deep? Or that was his first read and he took it? Obviously the deep routes get bigger gains. Maybe someone could show the yards per catch?

Facts

[@bookendtackles5315]

Absolute fact 💯. In my opinion this guy will end up being one of the best QB from this draft years to come. Smart, good pre post snap reads, quick release, crazy gifted arm, tight motion, throws with anticipation, good packet awareness and manipulation... He's not a statue and can scramble... Do you really want your QB running 500 yards per year... No, want him to have a throw first mentality which he does.

[@jameshannagan4256]

[@bobumbel]

Penix is the real deal. I get the injury concerns but that was in the past and he has developed his game by getting rid of ball quickly/making quick decisions, pre-snap reads of the coverage, not taking sacks. Many QB's do not show that growth. I love his game and any team that drafts will win the draft

Someone is gonna get a steal with this dude, I'm entranced. He has it. Even though I recognize about the injuries and his age I dont really care at the same time. You know what you're getting with him: a smart, elite passer with a huge arm who doesn't take sacks, can make every throw, and deals with pressure well. With the other guys, especially Maye and McCarthy, there is SO much projection. I'm totally convinced that after Caleb, he will be the second best QB in this draft if he gets his chance.

[@joeynickles7962]

I appreciate the breakdown. One of the things I get annoyed about with some of the Penix detractors in the draft media world is they like to make it seem like serious football people don’t consider Penix a dude and that only casual football fans see a high quality/starting caliber quarterback prospect. It’s a completely false picture they paint but they slough it off as if it’s just common sense. The truth of the matter is that there are plenty of serious football people that like Penix and do believe his game with translate. And now we can add Chase Daniel to that list of serious football people who like Penix, along with guys J.T. O’Sullivan, Chris Simms and former NFL general managers Rick Spielman and Randy Mueller. To the Penix haters, it’s one thing to dislike his game but don’t gaslight people and make it seem like only casuals do like him. Y’all literally spent the last 2 years telling us the guy is a statue and that he can’t move because of the injuries, a claim that Penix PROVED definitively has zero validity whatsoever. I mean the people that watched the tape and came to that conclusion completely and utterly whiffed on that aspect of the evaluation and in fact reality proved to be the precise opposite of what they claimed it was. People who test the way Penix tested are far from immobile. And though he doesn’t move a lot there are plenty of reps from the last 2 years that show the guy is far from the bad athlete he was made out to be in certain quarters.

[@jameshollister8294]

He had better 40 yard and Vert then Jordan love.love not that mobile but has crazy arm angles..my point if penix can move like love he should be fine...so I gotta watch love tape

[@archsys307]

see the people who see injuries and assume statue, thats an example of a heuristic, now everybody uses heuristics in everything but the accuracy and correlation of your heuristics is what determines how close you get to the truth in a couple decades, maybe even just 10 years, we’ll have AI scouts that far surpass any human in talent evaluation, at that point human talent evaluators will essentially become AI scout assistants and interpret their results, although in 10 years blackbox bots will also be able to interpret and explain their results and “thinking process” in human friendly form

[@IceCubE4425]

I've seen him on Pro-day and watched some film on him and can't shake the feeling that the injury concerns maybe because he hasn't fully grown into his body despite being 23-24. Might be the baby face, but a year of sitting behind a QB like Darnold and developing his body athletically with time and introduced slowly, I think he blooms into a great QB, perfect for the Vikings team sitting at 11th pick.

[@rockymarquiss8327]

Left handed QB creates different challenges. You need a right tackle that can defend the blind side rather than left tackle. The hand off to running back is different. Receivers have to adjust to the spin of the ball as it's rotating opposite of what they're used to up to that moment. It's also a little challenging to coach as most coaches are right handed and reversing everything is challenging... Everything is different when you have a left handed QB... But I think this guy makes it worthwhile

[@anthonytobias5459]

The Vikings have two pro bowl tackles. O’Neil and Darrisaw are great. If he went there he would have an instant impact. But his injuries in past is a concern.

He is a generational talent with a chip on his shoulder and I hope he goes to a franchise that will build a team around that talent.

The knock on Penix is he throws a great deep ball but his intermediate game isnt good. I watched a draft guy yesterday and he said a nfl scout told him this before the michigan game and Michigan took away the deep ball, which he does throw well and he was poor in that game. The nfl game doesnt give you 5 seconds to throw deep balls all the time, you have to hit underneath routes and the intermiate routes because the NFL is 2 or 3 seconds, and it has to be gone......

[@Tom-mu2ts]

He at times can play inconsistent ...he missed some wide open receivers against Michigan, some of them that would have changed momentum during that game. Texas' Murphy and Sweat were in his face the whole game and he releases the ball with pressure in his face....he played perfect against Texas' great defensive line and was incredibly pinpoint accurate. Michigan's defensive pressure was no better than Texas, there were many plays Penix normally makes that he just didn't make against Michigan. When Penix is on, he's the best pocket qb coming out of college and most pro-ready that I've ever seen in a long time.

This is why couch scouts have no idea what they’re talking about. Even the best QBs in the league have missed a receiver every now and then and then.

As a Raider fan, I hope we are able to nab him in the first round. He has great arm talent. The only knock, besides health questions, that I really hear from analyst folks is his short-passing game, citing the National Championship as an example of a defense taking away the deep game, and forcing Penix to play in a more short to intermediate quick rhythm passing game, of which he struggled. But, I'm just a fan I don't know much! Ha!

[@finstor3386]

I dont think you can argue that there is a better thrower around than Penix. In a clean pocket on his spot, I would say hes easily the best player in the draft. He has as good as an arm as anyone except for maybe Mahomes and Allen. It would be nice to see what he could do in the NFL under pressure. Can he stay healthy and can he avoid the rush are the 2 questions I have. Unforunately, we arent going to find out for a while, he should be the starter for a team, but its likely hes on the bench for at least 2yrs and he doesnt need that at all.

[@bobumbel]

@@jnrodriguez11 I was not comparing them as QB's. I was attempting to show Burrow was a #1 pick and had 2 season ending injuries.

[@creditlessons]

@@jnrodriguez11in terms of injury history you nincompoop.

[@addicusbrown]

He is the modern left handed version of... Dan Fouts! More athletic but van make every throw and works the pocket like a master of his craft

[@genitalhermes1346]

The guy can make any and every throw, in anticipation and rhythm, with fairly good ability to see the field and sense pressure. He does it all. Id take the gamble on his health before id trade up and gamble that another qb can learn to do what he does. Imagine him throwing to JJ, hockensen, and Addison

[@cwhiteco]

I think the Commanders have the most to lose not picking him. The last thing you want at pick two. Is to not necessarily get the second best qb in the draft.

[@Spectral257]

BEST Qb in 2024 draft!

[@thrill2020]

To the Raiders at 13

[@shortestwidereceiver]

I’m big time drinking the koolaid on Penix, that arm talent is just nasty

[@dustinmoseley8863]

This man has to go to the Giants , Daboll has to be drooling over the verical game plus Aaron Wellman who was the Senior Assistant Athletic Director for Football Performance at Indiana while Penix was there and he is now the Giants Executive director of player performance. So they should have first hand knowledge of the injury history

[@dustinmoseley8863]

which that deep ball to Jalin Hyatt could be wonderful

[@afisecurity4040]

now that's intel!

[@eliw6607]

He had an elite Offensive line that played against overmatched opponents.He wont have that in the NFL. We saw what happened against an elite Michigan defense. Just wait til he feels that NFL pressure.

[@greatwhite3676]

Yep. He had been making simple reads with all kinds of time all year until he played against some grown men.

[@Tom-mu2ts]

Texas' Murphy and Sweat were in his face the whole game and they have the best interior line in the country. Pennix still tore them up by releasing the ball quickly with anticipation and touch on his passes. Penix had by far the lowest sack rate in the country...he is a master of the pocket. Pennix was off against Michigan and missed some wide open receivers including one to Odunze who was wide open and would have went for a TD, which would have effected the momentum during that game against Michigan. Also, Pennix hit Odunze on a deep pass as he was hit when the score was 20-13 late in the game but was called back because of a holding penalty. If Pennix played against Michigan liked he did against Texas, that game would have been much closer at the end. Plus Pennix was playing hurt in the second half.

[@RNL-kg1zb]

Plz TT and AP 🙏🏽

[@reddfoxx897]

He is the second best quarterback behind Caleb!!

[@oldpilotnewtricks]

As a Husky fan, I love that he is in the discussion…but having watched every game this year, I thought he was pretty average and even poor when he was pressured and couldn’t sit in the pocket. Yes…he was able to do what was needed to win in the end, but I would be worried about his decision making under pressure.

[@Doors067]

Cant handle pressure at all! Byron murphy right in his face.... the only people talking shit are the ones who only watched the natty

[@burtknighten4438]

ATL should draft him at 8 IF hes still there Obviouslynl would be BPA

[@therealrockguru]

Future Seahawk with Ryan Grubb leading that offense.

[@originalnorseman462]

He is a great pocket passer. I noticed he does not roll out or throw on the run much. I am sure the Vikings will investigate that in the private workout. To me he seems better value at 11 or 23 than trading up for McCarthy. He also seems to play under pressure a lot more than JJ. I think that's huge advantage in the pros overlooked by many evaluators. . On that Climb route the receiver jerked to the left just as Penix looked at him, and it caused him to move off of him.

[@warrenward1843]

Frank Gore enjoyed a 16 year NFL career after suffering 2 ACL tears while in college.

[@jameshannagan4256]

He wasn't a QB who had two shoulder surgeries as well it's a risk with a high pick that's why he probably gets picked between 10-20 in rd1.

[@williamsampson4460]

I have no idea what Penix critics and draft experts are looking at. Penix has the best arm, best accuracy downfield, best pocket awareness, best manipulation of defensive backs downfield, lowest sack rate, and fastest snap to pass time. None of the other QB's are even close to Penix in any of these key areas. In two of his bad games against Arizona State and Michigan the refs allowed defenders to hold and interfere constantly all game long. In the first clip, Penix is the only QB in this draft class who completes the pass and allows the receiver to run after the catch. at 06:36, amazing people say Penix is a statue and can't throw over the middle. Both statements are debunked in the same play. Watch at 08:28, he looks to the left side of the field first so the safety on the right side moves up to cover the underneath route.
