”ALOT”
I’m not sure Josh is more athletic but I’m not making comparisons because this is the cis kiss of death.

Trent Dilfer in that the ball looks like a balloon coming off his hand yet arrives smoking hot.

The similarities with Phillip Rivers are uncanny, including the throwing motion.

Nah, Aaron Rodgers is barely one of the 3 greatest QB’s ever to play FOR THE PACKERS, let alone the whole NFL.
Top of my head…Bret Favre, Bart Starr, and Don Majkowski were all better

Tyler Van Dyke comparison
DISCLAIMER: No one is saying he will have the same kind of career. This is simply a comparison of traits, background and playing style. With that said, there are a lot of similarities between Tyler Van Dyke and Matt Ryan. The main difference I see is high school offense, since Matt Ryan played...

So what you’re saying is TVD is number four all time just behind Aaron? I also agree.

I never in my life would have thought my Miami Hurricanes would have a QB that compared to Marino in any way. Yet, here we are. TVD has a cannon, and you're right, his deep ball has a lower trajectory. Even the way the ball leaves his hand is similar. That short TD pass to Rambo against NC State was very Marinoesque.

The way the ball leaves his hand is definitely reminiscent of Dan. I was watching videos of Marino last night, and then TVD’s highlights, the release and deep ball are incredibly similar.
I’m excited to see his progression in these next few games. I’ve been really impressed the last 2 games with his decision making, and his improvement in going through his reads and looking LB’s and safeties off.
It also helps that our OL’s pass blocking seems to have improved tremendously. If they keep on giving him time to throw, and Lashlee continues to call an aggressive and creative game plan, watch out.

I'm old enough to remember Jacory Harris being tabbed "Tan Marino" after having a couple of good games, only to be lambasted and called everything under the sun when he didn't meet some of the resident CIS Mel Kiper's expectations. Let's leave the kid alone with the nickname and comparisons.
Agree.

Jacory’s release and footwork looked nothing like Marino’s. I think people named him that because they were saying at that time that he was as good as Dan the Man, which was asinine to begin with.
Also, no one is saying he’s as good as any of the aforementioned (I can assure you that at least I’m not), just that some of his traits are similar or reminiscent of Dan.
He has a LONG way to go to be in the conversation with Dan and Phillip Rivers, but pointing out similarities in hand release, footwork and the trajectory of his deep ball are not the same as saying he is the next Dan Marino, Phillip Rivers, etc..
