Every QB measured at the combine since 2008.

It should worry any Watson supporter that Yi won't find any successful qb in his mph range. Not even one . Definitely makes me wonder.

Blake Sims-42


Good Lord man, pretty sure I could throw harder than that.

Kirk Cousins 59 mph with ~68% NFL accuracy.

Yea it's not even fair to compare Peterman to him anymore. Cousins is the f**kin man

Connor Cook hit 50....I dont buy that velocity was ever his issue as much as throwing in the same zipcode as his receivers.

Haha yea who knows. Might have to go watch some cook tape again

Moreso giving props to cousins than s**tting on Peterman. Doesn't seem right to throw 6mph less than a guy and be compared to him. I was making that comparison but gotta rethink it.

Would be very curious what Brady's number was. Let's not forget there have been plenty QBs before 2008. I have a feeeling there have been plenty successful guys throwing at that level pre 2008.

The official records only go back to 2008.

I think the comparison is in style of play. The guy who recruited Cousins to Michigan State was one of the first to compare Peterman to him.

Deshaun Watsons coach said passing on him would be like passing on MJ. Coaches and recruiters are gonna talk up their guys always.

I say barely in the 50s. He never had a cannon. But damn he knew where to throw the ball.
