Josen Rosen rose, and Josh Rosen fell. In this week’s film breakdown we go back to 2017, and 2018 where Rosen became a first round pick following his junior season at UCLA in ‘17, then was drafted 10th overall by the Arizona Cardinals in 2018. Just 1 year later he was traded away from the Cardinals, so this begs the questions: how could the Cardinals fail the evaluation so spectacularly? And what. the. hell. happened? This week’s episode uses the coaches all 22 game film to analyze Josh Rosen's 2017 UCLA film, and his 2018 Arizona Cardinals film.

Idk how else to explain but I love these breakdowns of old games or former players and why they failed. Keep doing them please

[alexokabayashi]

Rosen is one of those guys you THINK you should feel bad for. it takes a couple minutes of “digging” to figure out he was just an outstandingly arrogant asshole haha

[furiogiunta]

I knew Rosen would be a bust when I heard none of his ULCA teammates showed up to his birthday party.

[lbonts]

decision making under pressure is the most important factor of NFL success imho and it’s the hardest to scout

[jmg]

He had so much promise coming out of high school. I heard some coaches say that he was the most polished high school QB ever.

[MatthewPurcell-xs]

Rumor is he habitually left skid marks in the team facilities. Lost the locker room within days in AZ and SF

[ddevilsugar]

Interesting topic Alex. I’d be great to see other first round busts to see what was missed/overlooked by NFL scouts.

[Dawg-Bone]

With Rosen, it didn’t matter how talented he was nor how talented the team around him was. It never would’ve matched his arrogance. Said arrogance was his undoing.

[OkagaCalifornia]

I remember that Rosen and the Cardinals beat the Packers that year in Lambeau. Rodgers losing to a shitty rookie was one of the funniest things of that season.

[echt]

It's amazing how some QBs get chance after chance until they succeed with advantageous coaching and supporting casts, but others are thrown into bad situations and then labeled failures.

[kenneykatfishtenyardfight]

Wow! Someone asked for a breakdown of J Frozen in the comments a lil while ago.

[GFilthyPhil]

As a Cards fan, this video can be summed up to Steve Kiem being a horrible GM and scout, drafting a guy way too high. Thats it. He was just overvalued at the draft. Period.

[KippinCollars]

He was the Golden Boy who had coaches create the perfect high school and college system for him to succeed in, and he underwhelmed. He had enough hype to get drafted, and his true colors showed. We all played with a kid like that at one point as kids. We all remember thinking while playing on those teams, "If this kid is so good, then why do we keep losing?"

[PaulGaither]

I am not even 40 yet, and I get so tired of these myths that mobile QBs are the new NFL. Mobility has always been an important asset. You don't have to be Fran Tarkington, Randal Cunningham, Mike Vick, or Lamar Jackson to be mobile, but you have to be able to buy time, escape, and at least able to throw the ball away if nothing is there while being chased rather than folding.
Even Peyton Manning had to escape at times, and Brady has a lot of awesome scrambling highlight from start to the end of his career.

[Oklahoma-Dreaming]

To me, Rosen just doesn’t have that “sense of urgency” that a great QB must have. I’m not saying he has to bounce around like a rabbit in a Falcon hunt. But an NFL QB should get quickly into his drop, hit his back foot, and throw it like his life depends upon it. Drew Brees is a prime example. Drew wasn’t my favorite quarterback but he got the ball out I believe in 2.65 seconds or less, on average, and he did it accurately too.

[daneberhardt]

Rosen was up and down in college. One game he'd dominate and then another he'd be pedestrian. That was the story of his career. His "potential" is what got him drafted but it was obviously never realized.

[caseysenethavilay]

Hot tub in the dorm room got me 🤣 forgot about that

[monophthalmos]

Could it be that the Cardinals didn't draft him to be a Drew Brees type QB that wins with accuracy and anticipation, but hoped to get him to play more like Carson Palmer whom they replaced with Rosen?

[JorgeGarcia-lrvk]

He was just another Steve Keim pick bust. During that time, I remember so many Cardinals fans being pissed that Keim took him over Lamar Jackson. I remember watching different draft analysis videos and you can just tell Lamar was a far superior player than Rosen. Of course, Keim being the drunk buffoon he is, chose Rosen who was average in college at best over the Heisman winner who carried Louisville on his back.
