I’m loving what these current NFL quarterbacks are doing now! They have come a long way from the quarterbacks of old.
The quarterbacks of today are doing things we could only dream of a few decades ago. Just look at Patrick Mahomes, the young Kansas City Chiefs QB; he can do absolutely anything with the football! Whether it’s threading the needle between two defenders or throwing it sixty yards with pin-point accuracy, he is simply on fire right now. Not to mention his charismatic demeanor on the field!
Cam Newton is definitely his own beast. He can throw the ball like a cannon and is amazingly athletic. He has the ability to make defenders whiff when they’re about to make the tackle, and really knows how to make a play when it matters the most. I still get chills when I think of the game winning play he made against the Jaguars over a year ago.
The Rams’ stud, Jared Goff, has really come into his own as a leader. His presence has a calming effect on the rest of the team and his decision-making often results in the Rams winning. He’s a masterful orchestrator of the offense and has the potential to be one of the top QBs of all time.
Drew Brees is in a class of his own. He could almost be called the Godfather of the modern NFL QBs. Brees is a true maestro on the field, rarely making mistakes and able to identify the defense quickly on any given play. His passes always seem to know where to go before he even throws them; it’s an amazing sight to watch.
Tom Brady is an icon who is simply in a league of his own. With nearly 20 years of experience, he can still make pinpoint accurate throws, run a complex offense, and defy the odds with never seen before performances. I’ve seen him lead teams to miracle comebacks time and time again, it’s no wonder why he will go down as the greatest of all time.
Deshaun Watson is a young gun with a lot of potential. He can move around in the pocket like a seasoned veteran and has plenty of speed and agility as well. He has the potential to be the next best QB in the league and I’m interested to see what he does in the future.
Finally, Alex Smith is a rather underrated QB, in my opinion. He is able to both remembering his playbook inside and out and quickly make confident and correct decisions on the field. He is a master of accuracy and of pinpoint placements, especially when it comes to the shorter passes.
It really is a great time to be an NFL fan and to see the top quarterbacks of the moment doing their thing. From Mahomes’ incredible skills to Brees’ and Brady’s experience, you can see greatness at every turn.
