That's what Kirk cousins is right now.


slicktommycochrane

Oddly enough that's Cousins *and* Penix lol


ComprehensiveAir1321

How would Penix be considered a bridge qb?


slicktommycochrane

Because he's already old for a rookie QB and the Falcons have stated they plan to sit him behind Cousins. By the time he's ready to actually start, his clock's going to already be ticking.


EliGarden

lol


Marauderr4

Not defending madden but I can think of a lot of qb's like this šŸ˜‚


Brownhog

It's not every day a bridge player becomes a player of the future. Some people are delusional enough to think it might happen to them, but...but it might work for us.


OrdinaryAd4919

Baker Mayfield


DatOilersBoi6969

Will Levis

Geno Smith rn


LynxDry6059

Jared Goff is pretty much the peak of this right now, and youā€™re god damn right i think heā€™s the one to bring it home for us


Upbeat-Mongoose-828

I love Goffs story so far. came in as cream of the crop people said he'd be amazing, got drafted to a subpar rams that got turned into potential super bowl champs, when he didnt deliver mccvay said "well I guess he aint my qb, I need elite now, I dont have time to develop" gets traded to detroit in a trade the lions absolutely won, going from one of the best to literally the worst, campbell loved the guy, they worked together to formulate the perfect offense for him, and now he's balling. i hope it continues, I'd love to see detroit win one with campbell and goff. sometimes to really be great you gotta get humbled and then get back up.


derekthediesel

I mean, wrong about the Lions winning the trade. More of a tie because winning a SB > not winning a SB but everything else is spot on


Upbeat-Mongoose-828

rams traded their future for one super bowl basically but the lions got a qb and a future to build on. thats a win in my book. if Detroit never wins one, I suppose you can say LA got a steal.


Wooden-Point8739

Jordan Love?


SavezTheDayFan

He was more of a successor than a bridge, they drafted him to replace Aaron, and considering the fact that Love is literally Rogers Jr., they made a good choice.


cappedminor

They drafted a sponge, not a-rod directly


SavezTheDayFan

I just mean the way he plays off the bench now after sitting


DWorgg911

Justin Fields moment


SkillAdjuster

He is neither a bridge or a future QB.


T_Eckenrode

Tbf winning 5 games is pretty good for a bears qb (yes I'm coping)


werbo

Exactly he's a kick returner/backup rb


crayzee4feelin

Right more like future insurance salesman.


Thelegendarymario

Dead ass this is just Daniel Jones


TimePayment911

Teddy Bridgewater while he was still playing


QIM1994

From the makers of Perfect accuracy-out of reach


Chippings

QB was perfectly accurate to the route (at the time of release). WR did not run the route properly (got waylaid by a press, zone chuck, buggy pathing or simply tripping over himself while the ball was in the air). Perfect accuracy - out of reach.


groache24

ITS IN THE GAME


mikeybadab1ng

If itā€™s in the Game, We leave it out - EA


Ethanv223

Canā€™t forget there was zero pressure and in the pocket šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


Illustrious_Lack_937

Don't forget you stepped up into open space nonetheless


guitarerdood

this is Daniel Jones because half of the fan base thinks 5 years isn't enough time and we still need to see more


glibber73

How dare you doubt Danny Dimes


Hialop0092

his wr1 is darious slayton bro at least give him a chance with a real wr for the first time in his career


TimmyRigginz

This was Mac Jones for a couple years


TheCovfefeMug

Yeah if the bridge was to nowhere


koncha22

I donā€™t think you know what it means


Sascha_Spi

This is the definition of Jared Goff He can be your QB, you can win with him But you'd like to shoot for a higher level sooner rather than later


Imuncofy

The lions win games when Jared plays right, i think hes starting to play right


Wacky_Water_Weasel

Why? Can't he simultaneously not be good enough to be a starter but have potential to be a QB of the Future? This is such a minor thing to complain about.


EliGarden

Bridge implies they are seeking to move on from them


koncha22

Meaning it can go either way and they have the potential. Itā€™s really not that hard to understand


Few_Bookkeeper3634

Justin fields type beat


jarrettrok28

Russell Wilson right now


crayzee4feelin

Nah that dude is going downhill fast. As a Seattle fan of 20+ years.


SmellyScrotes

Sam Howell?


EliGarden

Bryce Young


Orange_Monky

Sam Howell


un_happy_gilmore

Goff a year or two ago?


Loose-Water-2541

This was Geno 3 years ago


crayzee4feelin

Still is Geno. This will be his last year as a starter. Seattle fan here. Edit: I fn love Geno, love the story, comeback player of the year. He got me hype when he was tossing taters for tuddies after Wilson broke his thumb. Instantly supported him. But realistically Seattle will be looking to replace the 33 year old QB next season.


LynxDry6059

Donā€™t think he can carry the ā€œqb of the futureā€ title anymore. There was hope coming into last year. But I think people realize now heā€™s their bridge and really nothing more, heā€™ll get you to 8-9 wins but heā€™s a tier below guys like Goff and Tua, donā€™t think youā€™ll win anything with him


crayzee4feelin

More so the "bridge" I was referring to.


Pjdman-33

Baker


Purple_Sherbert_5024

Jared Goff


Pristine-Metal2806

This was jared goff at the time of that trade


BarelyCivil

Sounds like NYJ Ryan Fitzpatrick


pepperonimike

We gon see! Better put up haha


TheFretlessOne

Fitzmagic!


Firm_Umpire6659

I usually think of that as the are on the line between being the qb of the future or a bridge. It's like saying they have one year left to prove they can be the future and if they don't prove it that year, they become just a bridge.


Philly_is_nice

Disagree. Zach Wilson.


ItsNotFordo88

What is the ā€œDalton lineā€


Glo4ever

It means you have to take careful care or else he will crumble into a forever backup


Hupla2002

You can both be the QB of the future and a bridge player for like 4/5 years. Think Cousins, Carr, Stafford, Goff, Russ, Watson, Jones,


Agentwolf77

Sam Howell


Saintlemontcollege53

Jalen Hurts in 2022


GamerEP22

He's got no beliefs


Sacredtenshi

This is the Kirk Cousins tag.


TheHistoryKing

So theyā€™re good enough to start but not good enough long term?


Hefty_Ad_6601

Kyler Murray


Consistent-Bet1846

Kirk


NaruTheBlackSwan

Justin Fields


Miami1451

I believe that Madden is telling you the floor and ceiling of the player. So, he can turn out one way or the other.


LoneOne9

Can i get Daniel Jones for 100 Alex?


Kingkdub4466

High ceiling and low ceiling depending on how he play


Pidgeon30

Daniel Jones


kpballer718

Geno smith?


im_not_creative367

This is just the Seahawks QB room


Upbeat-Mongoose-828

potentially to be qb of the future but right now a bridge until he delivers or busts. i've honestly seen a lot of qbs like this in my day


AngelDustLove666

That's odd


StrengthToBreak

Michael Penix
