In Episode 2 of Cori’s Corner: The Podcast, we break down everything you need to know from NFL Week 11 and take a deep dive into one of football’s most misunderstood topics — what actually makes a quarterback “elite.”
From processing speed to ball placement to pocket management, we’re unpacking the traits coaches look for and why some QBs rise while others struggle.
We also clear up one of the most debated rules in the game: Intentional Grounding. If you’ve ever argued in the group chat about whether a QB “threw it away illegally,” this one’s for you.
In this episode:
• Week 11 recap and biggest storylines
• The truth about “elite QB play”
• NFL 101 breakdown of Intentional Grounding
• Cori’s Quick Picks heading into Week 12
