Has Quinn Ewers damaged the Dr. Pepper Curse? Maybe you hadn’t seen over the previous few years since you’d been charmed by Dr. Pepper’s “Fansville” advert campaigns, however the quarterbacks who’ve starred in it every season have seen their efficiency drop off considerably.

Some will say it’s because they’re chosen after unimaginable seasons and it is exhausting to copy immense ranges of success. To these individuals I say: Nonsense! Clearly, it is a curse! Similar to the “Madden” curse and the “Sports activities Illustrated” curse of our ancestors!

DJ Uiagalelei has by no means been the identical since showing within the advert, whereas each Bryce Younger and Caleb Williams noticed their groups undergo, even when their particular person stats had been solely barely worse.

However Ewers? The latest deputy of Fansville? He do not care about no stinkin’ curse. He is nonetheless happening the highway and beating high groups, identical to he did final season earlier than he was a business star. And should you can break curses, you will be ranked No. 1 within the QB Energy Rankings. It is one of many official guidelines! Here is a refresher on a pair others:

  • This isn’t a draft board rating, neither is it primarily based on any sort of statistical formulation. Your numbers matter, certain, however total, I am rating quarterbacks primarily based on the “juice” they’ve on the present second in time. It is a mixture of how effectively you are enjoying, what you might have completed and what you would possibly accomplish within the close to future. For those who imagine a QB I have not listed needs to be listed, I solely saved them off the checklist as a result of I do not such as you. Or, maybe it is this second half.
  • I do not rank any QB the week after a loss. You possibly can be the best QB of all time, however should you lose on Saturday, you will not be right here. I do not care should you suppose your offensive line stinks, OK? That is the burden the QB should carry. For those who win, it is as a result of your teammates did their jobs. For those who lose, it is on you. Embrace it.

Now let’s attempt to harness all this QB energy in desk type.
