The QB Room

He might be able to call Tom Brady a friend, but we're proud to call him ours. Jarrett Stidham joins The Room fresh off his first NFL start. He made NFL history as only the 2nd QB to pass for 350+ yards and 3+ TDs in their first career start. But that's not all! He also holds the Raiders record for most passing yards in a player's first career start now, too.

A small-town Texas guy who's faced a good deal of adversity, Jarrett talks about the emotions heading into his start against the 49ers, how he prepped to face the best defense in the NFL, and what he was able to learn from sitting behind both Tom Brady and Cam Newton during his time in New England. We discuss the elephant in the room with him: the Derek Carr situation in Las Vegas. Jarrett also opens up about adjusting to his role as the starter, maintaining his confidence and composure to take advantage of his opportunity, and reminds Jordan and Kyle just how funny he is.

This is The Room: bringing you a new kind of conversation with your favorite NFL and college quarterbacks.

We created this show to give everybody an inside look into the quarterback room: the most important room in any organization.

And we've done that over the last 19 episodes we've recorded. So now, it's time to look back at those conversations we had with Josh Allen, Trevor Lawrence, Kirk Cousins, and a whole bunch more.

We picked out the best of the best moments from the show to give out awards. You've seen The Dundies from The Office. We completely stole that idea to create our own awards show, The Roomies.

If this is the first episode you're watching, please like and subscribe. And on maybe our only serious note of this whole episode, if you've watched any of what we've been working on this season, thank you. We built this not knowing who would listen, and we're really grateful people have. This episode is for you.

Max Duggan is first in The Room's heart this week, regardless of what the Heisman voters think. And speaking of hearts, COVID may have saved Max's life. 

Davey O' Brien QB Of The Year and TCU QB, Max Duggan, joins us as he prepares to take on Michigan in round 1 of the CFP. We talk about his development over 4 years at TCU, how he approaches the game, who he watches on tape, and adjusting to playing under a new staff this year. We also learn more about how Max overcame getting beat out as the starting quarterback back in Week 1, his heart condition and the surgeries that followed, and his mentality heading into TCU's first CFP appearance.

In Throw it Deep or Check it Down, Jordan and Kyle discuss whether or not college commitments mean what they used to in today's ever-changing landscape of college football. 

This is The Room: bringing you real QB-to-QB conversations with your favorite NFL and CFB quarterbacks.

XFL is in The Room as Seattle Sea Dragons QB Ben DiNucci and Houston Roughnecks QB Cole McDonald join us on this week's episode!

Ben and Cole have both been on NFL rosters, and are perfect examples of what the majority of quarterback journeys in the League look like. Fans always hear the term "NFL Journeyman," but what does that actually mean? That's something we discuss in this interview, as well as how the XFL is changing the game and what the future of the XFL/NFL partnership could look like. We also discuss the underdevelopment of the QB position, the importance of taking advantage of every opportunity that comes your way, and more. 

The XFL has had a lot of buzz around it, especially since The Rock bought it, and we hope that this interview explains why the XFL is so important and so exciting for football. 

In Throw it Deep or Check it Down, Jordan and Kyle discuss if it just takes the right coach and QB to turn a program around and if Mike Tomlin should be fired as the Steelers' Head Coach. 

It's officially been a full NFL season of The Room, bringing you the most interesting quarterback conversations and stories in a way no one else can.

Joining us on The Room today is the newest Iowa Hawkeyes QB, Cade McNamara.

In his first interview since announcing his transfer from Michigan to Iowa, Cade breaks down what the transfer portal process was like for him and gives us an inside look at how the portal and NIL have completely changed the landscape of college football. Cade goes into what it meant to be voted a captain at Michigan, what led to his ultimate decision to transfer, the knee injury that sidelined him, and what he's most excited about on this next leg of his journey. 

Cade's been around QB Summit for a long time, working with Jordan since he was in middle school, and Hawkeye fans- if anyone is willing to put in the work to turn a program around, it's him. 

This is The Room- where we bring you into conversations with your favorite NFL and College Quarterbacks like you've never seen them before.

Sammy D is in the house...or more accurately, on The Room.

This is an interview we've been waiting all season for. Sam Darnold is one of our very good friends, and someone Jordan has known for a really long time. In this interview, we dive into everything from Sam's ankle injury this season to his basketball game, USC football, and go deeper into Sam's journey and how he has faced the adversity he's faced in his NFL career. Sam, Kyle, and Jordan also share some great stories from throughout the years, some of which include our other bestie, Josh Allen. 

Before they started their Draft training back in 2018, Kyle kept asking Jordan if Sam was "actually cool." We hope that this interview answers that question.

This is The Room, where we bring you conversations with your favorite quarterbacks in a way you don't normally get to see them- talking life and football with fellow QBs, just like they would in the quarterback room.

This week's guest needs no introduction- Fitzy, Fitzmagic, The Amish Rifle, Ryan Fitzpatrick brings himself out of media timeout to join us on The Room. 

A little bit of The Room trivia: Ryan is the only QB that Jordan and Kyle have both been teammates with. Fitzy gets honest with his first impressions of Jordan and Kyle, dives into his 17-year journey around the NFL, and shares plenty of behind-the-scenes NFL stories and hijinx from his time in the league. 

With a man like Ryan Fitzpatrick, you have to jump straight into it, meaning no Throw it Deep or Check it Down this week. 

The Room also welcomes a new family member, Jordan's third son, River. 

This is the place to see your favorite QBs as you've never seen them before- in a room with other QBs, answering questions you won't hear in a press conference. This is The Room.

Kirk Cousins, quite possibly the iciest QB in the NFL right now, joins us this week on The Room.   

While he might not have the chains on in this interview, we get the scoop behind how that flight home tradition came to be, what's going right for Minnesota, and what the team is looking to improve in the next half of the season. Kirk talks about his journey of proving himself from a 4th round backup in Washington early on in his career to now being the guy in Minnesota 11 years later, as well as how being around coaches like Mike Shanahan, Sean McVay, Jay Gruden, Matt LeFleur, Mike Zimmer, and now Kevin O'Connell has impacted his career.   

Kirk's mantra of "tough times don't last but tough people do" and his ability to carry himself through adversity inspires quarterbacks of any level.  In Throw it Deep or Check it Down, Kyle and Jordan discuss the upcoming CFP selections and transfer portal window, if playing in the NFL really is like an amusement park, and break the new Colts Head Coach on-air 🚨  

This is The Room- home of the most interesting conversations with quarterbacks from the NFL and College Football.

This week, we’re talking with Washington Commanders QB, Rogan quote extraordinaire, and Kyle’s good friend, Taylor Heinicke.   Taylor has arguably one of the best stories in football and guys like him are the reason we wanted to create this show in the first place. We talk about Taylor’s journey from an undrafted NFL free agent, to a backup in the NFL, to the XFL, and then back into the NFL. After becoming a fan favorite in Washington last season, he's stepping up and helping lead the Commanders to a 2 game win streak after a broken finger sidelined Carson Wentz this season. We cover everything from his philosophy of controlling the controllable and the parallels between his and Kyle’s careers to testing his knowledge of Joe Rogan vs. Aaron Rodgers quotes and his Jordan collection.   To open the show with Throw It Deep or Check It Down, we give our thoughts on celebrating a QB’s first start, the intensity of a QB playing their former team, and whether or not Auburn is the biggest HC opening in college football.  This is The Room.
