- Book is an excellent QB and the number 5 rating is pretty right on. But he has to play like 1 or 2 THEISMANCARR 9:10pm · 5/25/20
- I wish more Notre Dame fans on here would realize what a special quarterback we have in IanNT DonMiller 1:24pm · 5/18/20
  - Dunno about special, but the shit he takes is unwarranted. I like him. Tough motha Frank L 6:48pm · 5/18/20
- He has a good head & good speed with limited arm and short height. I suppose that he gets a bit of BaronVonZemo 3:26pm · 5/17/20
  - You're describing Drew Brees....NT ripperduck 10:06pm · 5/17/20
    - ...or Tommy Rees with more speed.NT BaronVonZemo 12:19am · 5/18/20

        I like Book, and I hope he proves me wrong (really hope), but he’s good not great and BaronVonZemo 1:59pm · 5/18/20
        
        Imho he was lousy reading deep routes hope he improves that dramatically I like his moxie and speed.NT Jerseymick 7:30pm · 5/19/20
      - Book has a significantly stronger arm than Rees ever did ndunabomber 9:22am · 5/18/20
        
        I agree, but my real point is that Book is not Drew Brees.NT BaronVonZemo 9:43am · 5/18/20
        
        “lacks accuracy and touch on his long throws” and “does not possess the ideal height you look for in iairishcheeks 5:07pm · 5/18/20
        
        Exactly. Most of the on paper guys don't pan out. That's what is wrong with scouting. They don't oldirish 6:57pm · 5/18/20
        
        According to Wikipedia, Brees has the third highest seasonal qb rating... ripperduck 5:49pm · 5/18/20
