The Six NFL Quarterbacks Who Can Be Better Than Tom Brady
Patrick Mahomes - Kansas City Chiefs
Mahomes is the closest to being Brady based on what he has done in his four seasons as a starter with the Chiefs. He has led to the team to four AFC Championship Games, two Super Bowls and one Super Bowl win. But there is some competition in the conference that could surpass Mahomes.
prevnextJosh Allen - Buffalo Bills
Allen has breathed new life into the Bills who played in four consecutive Super Bowls in the 1990s. He has led the Bills to an AFC Championship Game appearance in his four seasons as a starter and has the highest passer rating in a single postseason at 149.0, which was this past season.
prevnextJoe Burrow - Cincinnati Bengals
Burrow led the Bengals the Super Bowl in just his second season as a starter. This past year, Burrow was named NFL Comeback Player of the Year and led the league in completion percentage.
prevnextJustin Herbert - Los Angeles Chargers
In two seasons with the Chargers, Herbert won the Offensive Rookie of the Year award and was named to the Pro Bowl. He has yet to reach the playoffs, but with 2022 being his third season, Herbert will likely take a huge step forward in his progression.
prevnextMac Jones - New England Patriots
After one season, Jones has established himself as the franchise QB for the Patriots. He threw for 3,801 yards and 22 touchdowns in his rookie season, leading him to be named to the All-Rookie Team and Pro Bowl.
prevnextTrevor Lawrence - Jacksonville Jaguars
As of now, this is a long shot as Lawrence had a challenging rookie season, throwing 12 touchdowns and 17 interceptions in 17 games. But with Doug Pederson as the new head coach of the Jaguars, Lawrence should improve vastly in 2022 and be the quarterback fans expected him to be when he was drafted No. 1 overall.
prevnextThe Best Chance
As mentioned earlier, Mahomes has the best chance to be the next Brady. But all six quarterbacks mentioned are still very young and have a chance to do special things in their careers. The interesting thing is all these QBs play in the AFC, meaning they will face each other multiple times over the years, which is not a bad thing for fans.
