The backup who played last year (not Bean) was really bad. What do we have this year?

That was Ballard right?

Yeah. He was rough.

He was a nice story. He just didn't even really look like a guy that ever would have enough talent to really matter in Big 12 football. Obv hope Im wrong, and it was just a small sample.

I’d expect Isaiah Marshall to be the back up by the end of the year and the starter next year.

100% facts.

He is LEGIT. He's going to turn some heads if he makes it into a game this year, trust me. I know it's just practice, but there's a lot of smoke from a few very well-connected people over this kid.

No charge just as a courtesy to fellow planeteers.

Will need some UNC/KU bb tix if you have 'em!

But he will make 4 good plays and one intergalactically stupid one that he won’t get away with near as much in the league.

But sure. If either were to play we’re ****ed. So I’d be happy with Bean from a total homer standpoint.

I wouldn’t want Bean playing any meaningful snaps at QB for the Chiefs, but I’d absolutely welcome him as our developmental third QB.

With his athletic ability, I’d even wonder if Reid could find some other way to use him. Maybe in a Taysom Hill type role.

Was just watching Pat McAfee talk about the Colts/Bengals preseason game tonight and he called out Jason Bean again. Said something like stick around for the end of that game and see Jason Bean, that kid has been phenomenal...throwing darts all over the field.

I love the kid. He's a phenomenal athlete and talent. Will outrun 95% of the guys on the field. He'll thrown lasers with good accuracy. The problem with Jason Bean is he's not a cerebral QB in any way. When he's forced to process, he'll make poor decisions consistently. If he gets into a good system he can succeed (as we saw toward the end of his collegiate career). He will wow you and he will make you shake your head in frustration.

I'm excited for you guys. KU has been getting better and better after having some tough years.

Enjoy!

KU and MU may be in the playoffs together at the end of this season. Crazy to think about.

Bean might make the best CFL QB in that entire league but I doubt he’s ever getting a shot at starting in the NFL. Way too mistake prone.
