The NFL has been off to a great start for the season! Almost every team is watchable and this is because each team has a somewhat functioning QB; here are the top 10.
10. Jordan Love: A great start to the season for the Packers’ new QB has put him straight into the top 10. There’s not much to say, but football fans know that he has led a comeback win. He has stayed in games with good teams and has risen to the occasion. The wait for Jordan Love is over; I guess having little to no hype has helped this young QB develop behind Aaron Rodgers.
9. Aaron Rodgers: There is not much to say as his injury has led to poor performances, but if we ever see Aaron Rodgers suit up again, I believe he is still a very talented QB.
8. Trevor Lawrence: He is a top ten QB but he could easily fall on this list after a poor start to the season with guys like CJ Stroud and Dak Prescott nearing the top 10.
7. Justin Herbert: Herbert isn’t who he looked like in his rookie season as he isn’t able to win football games the way a top QB should. However, he is too talented to leave him off this list.
6. Lamar Jackson: Jackson is a top 5 QB this season, but overall he is on the outside looking in. Lamar Jackson is already a first ballot hall of famer just because of his awards, and now we are seeing a good football team fly under the radar and it’s possible this team’s offense could click. Lamar is still an elite threat rushing and he is continuing to become a threat in the passing game.
5. Joe Burrow: He is a great QB who has had a terrible season. The problem with Burrow is that his team hasn’t performed well this season and his injury hasn’t helped him at all.
4. Tua Tagovailoa: His stats are 1,614 passing yards which leads the league and the second place by over 100 points. Tua has been playing great and showed the whole league why people used to call it “Tank for Tua”.
3. Josh Allen: He has been so inconsistent, but at one point a couple years ago he was the best player in football. As of late, however, he has been dropping down the list and now has found himself at number three. Jalen Hurts and him are more like 2a and 2b. However, right now, Hurts is just performing better.
2. Jalen Hurts: Hurts has 1,262 passing yards and also four rushing touchdowns, showing how good he really has been this season on the ground and through the air. He really is the MVP of the league and it shows because in the last two seasons, he has rarely lost a game. However, without him, his team has looked terrible.
1. Patrick Mahomes: Mahomes is on track to be the “greatest player of all time.” He has finally shown some weaknesses this season for the first time, but the weaknesses don’t outweigh the strengths because the truth is his team is horrible. And yet, the Chiefs–as of the time this is being written–are 4-1.
