I attended both schools, and support both, so I think I have a fairly unbiased view (between the two I mean). Before the season began, I would have taken Sam in a heartbeat and said he was the better quarterback.
OL or not, he’s unfortunately regressed this year and Kenny has taken huge leaps forward. Sam has had just some head scratcher plays that I haven’t seen from Kenny this year - but I did see from Kenny in years past.
They both have the ability to make plays with their feet, either getting outside the pocket and keeping the play alive for the WRs downfield, or running to the sticks. They both have an edge to their game and toughness, too, which I love (so long as they stay healthy). They both seem to enjoy the contact when they run for it.
I would love to see either one of them play for my team on Sundays (and considering that’s the Steelers and we need to move on from Ben, could be a reality).
At this point, if the rest of the season goes like the first 7 games, I put KP as QB1 on my board. If either is available when the Steelers are on the clock though, I’d be a happy dude.
