How did Jordan Palmer go from Carson’s little brother to go-to NFL draft guru? Turns out, the man with 18 career passes in the NFL had coaching in his blood.

@ryanma5452 4 жыл бұрын

I feel like part of the reason is really good quarterbacks will never be trainers or coaches because they'll feel it's below their status, or they'll have more lucrative brands or routes to go after retirement (like Romo going into TV). For backup QBs, they have the processing and the understanding of a quarterback but they also get years of watching these amazing QBs play and prepare, and that makes them the ideal candidates for coaching or training

@jazzcabbage1776 4 жыл бұрын

@@dave1927p you're 100% correct. The Michael Jordans, the Kobes, and Tim bradys of the world work hard yea, but not like those without the elite talent have to. When you don't have that kind of talent, you have to work extremely hard and in doing that, you get to understand how people work. You get a skill that's beyond the sport and makes you better as a person in general. That's why Kobe , Jordan, and Tom bradys of the world don't make good coaches cuz they didn't have to go through a process of being brought up and then back down repeatedly.
