Frequently Asked Questions About Chris Miller
How does Michael Penix Jr compare to Chris Miller?
Michael Penix Jr. steps into the Falcons huddle as starter, but Chris Miller's '91 cannon—3,103 yards, 26 TDs, first playoff win since '78—looms large, third in franchise yards at 14,066. Penix has the arm talent, yet Miller's grit through five concussions in 14 months built a tougher era's backbone; today's kid needs that Wild Card magic to match.
Is Chris Miller in the Pro Football Hall of Fame?
Nope, Chris Miller's not in Canton—his 19,320 yards and 123 TDs got him a Pro Bowl nod in '91, but no gold jacket. Think of him as the Falcons' forgotten gunslinger, third in franchise passing marks, coaching Kurt Warner later, yet the Hall snubbed him like a bad protection call.
What is Chris Miller doing now in 2026?
In 2026, Miller's hustling as Regional Recruiter Director for an NIL company, scouting transfer portal gems and D1 scholarships—50 kids from his West Linn days landed college spots. The ex-Duck who broke 13 Oregon records and mentored Warner keeps grinding, far from the five-concussion haze of his Rams exit.
How would Chris Miller perform in today's NFL?
Miller's quick release and '89 league-low INT rate would feast in today's pass-happy NFL—imagine 26 TDs in '91 with no bump-and-run corners or quick PBs. His 55% completion might climb to 65% under modern rules, turning Falcons fans' "what if" into a Kirk Cousins upgrade, minus the concussions.
How does Chris Miller compare to Matt Ryan?
Matt Ryan's 42.23 passer rating towers over Miller's 30.33, but both Falcons first-rounders owned Atlanta—Miller's 14,066 yards rank third all-time there, with that '91 Pro Bowl explosion. Ryan's the steady surgeon; Miller the wild cannon who dragged a moribund team to playoffs. Ryan wins longevity, Miller the underdog snarl.
