Wasn't talking bout your posts. Was more talking about when Jones' style and his top traits are compared to Brady or anyone really it usually gets trumped. But the other guys can be compared to any of the best scramblers.
Just find it funny is all.

Mac did say pure pocket passer, but Aaron Rodgers, Brett Favre, Steve Young, etc. There's a decent-sized list of 6'2" QBs.

Rogers isn't a pure pocket passing QB. Dude extends plays and plays off structure...all while playing in the same offense that kyle runs

You know what's funny...everyone b***hed about Zach Wilson's size yet he's damn near the same Height/weight as Jones.
Im sure you listen to TDN and know Kyle Crabbs you should listen to his takes on Jones. He doesn't belong in the same class as the 4 other QBs.

Also how many pocket QB's have shredded our D the last few years?
It's always the mobile guys that gives us trouble, the ones with the special arms and legs cause issues as they make you defend every blade of grass.
The bar is to win it all not play to beat our d. Pocket qb's can still get it done. I was just commenting on his lack of physique which can be bulked up ala Tom. Not saying he can make it as a pocket QB or that I want him. I don't.

You said this about Young
"The difference is Steve Young was a top level passer. He was actually great at the whole QBing thing"
And I responded with he had no idea how to throw a football when first at BYU. He wasn't some heady in the pocket QB in college. he was all about play extension and yes has the arm talent to make it work.
His first 4 yrs in the league he has a horrible completion percentage...once he understood the nuances of the WCO he turned into a HOF QB

Yes but our D is up there as standard setting, so it's more for context.
Mac not only can't access the field with his legs, there are areas he can't access with his arm, and we're supposed to pick that over guys that stress the entire field?
