Chris Simms

Standig Room Only: A show about the Washington Commanders and D.C. sports

The Athletic's Ben Standig is talking -- wait or it -- quarterbacks with NBC Sports analyst Chris Simms. The former NFL quarterback is never shy about offering an opinion, and Chris came out firing with pros/cons, rankings/tiers, and specific insight on his top six passers, starting with Caleb Williams. As prospects, Jayden Daniels or C.J. Stroud? Who is the QB you want in the fourth quarter on 3-and-7? The J.J. McCarthy hype, the Drake Maye polarization and Michael Penix's underrated qualities. Plus, quick notes on some possible second-round targets.

Ben opens the show with notes on his Commanders-only mock draft 2.0 and from the local beat's chat today on all the organizational changes with several holdover players, including Terry McLaurin and Daron Payne.
