Clutchest QBs

[rmilia1]

Saw an interesting stat about Rodgers vs Brady as it pertained to how often they led their teams to 4th quarter comeback wins so it piqued my interest to see how all long time NFL starters stacked up .

Basically I limited the search to guys playing QB currently who have 100+ starts in the league and how often they win after trailing in the fourth . Results.

1. Tom Brady- Brady's teams have trailed in the 4Q 95 times in his career . He has won 35 of those 95 for a .368 win %

2. Russell Wilson - 18/55 for a .327 win %

3. Ben Roethlisberger - 31/102 for a 303 win %

4. Matt Ryan- 28/102 for a .274 win %

5. Andy Dalton- 20/73 for a .273 win %

6. Matt Stafford - 28/103 for a .271 win %

7. Drew Brees- 35/144 for a .243 win %

8. Phillip Rivers- 26/118 for a .220 win %

9. Joe Flacco- 18/88 for a .204 win %

10. Aaron Rodgers- 14/72 for a .194 win %

11. Eli Manning - 27/143 for a .188 win %

Pretty interesting

Am I the only one that gets the feeling that the OP searches NFL database and media outlets for hours a day looking for stats or stories to post that show Matt Ryan or the Falcons rated highly in?

That, and anything that puts Rodgers down a peg or two.

Only a Cowboys fan thinks being 4th out of 11 is "being ranked high " lol

So it's not because you're a Cowboy can ? More a general statement about what you as a person consider success? Top 37%. Aiming high buddy .

Wow, that's actually even worse

Try limiting it to guys whose last names start with the letter R and he leaps to top 25%

I always found 4th quarter comebacks to be a shitty stat. Play well enough in the first 3 quarters to have the lead and it is not needed.

There's something to that but every QB will trail a high % of games in the 4Q regardless . The league is set up for parity . Even the greatest QBs will trail at least 1/3 of their games in the 4Q. Regardless this stat simply shows you how they perform when trailing . No stat is all encompassing .

Well you are the one who said top 37% is "ranking high ". That comes from somewhere in your belief system . Something to look into man . You can do better

The only people in this thread trying to spin anything are the 2 Cowboy fans. My OP is straight numbers . Not sure why you'd care . There isn't even a Dallas QB on the list .

you didn't want a cowboy QB on the list, thus the 100 starts and current QB requirement.
