Description: Ken and Anthony dig into Drew Allar's electric preseason debut for the Steelers, with Anthony admitting he's too gun-shy on quarterback evaluations after years of getting burned to fully commit to any prospect, including Allar back in his Penn State days. Ken presses him on whether that caution is really principled analysis or just fear dressed up as skepticism, pointing out Anthony's habit of taking detailed notes on quarterbacks and then talking himself out of wanting any of them. The two also spar over whether the Browns "wasted" the third-round pick on Joe Royer, and Anthony pushes back on the idea that supporting a quarterback just because "the situation sucks" is a legitimate argument, while acknowledging the NFL is watching Cleveland's Shedeur Sanders vs. Deshaun Watson competition with amusement.
