Trivia:

Stafford needs only 5 Td passes to be the 5th quarterback in NFL history to throw for 100+ TDs for two different teams.

Who are the 4 quarterbacks that already have?

Agreed, and I don’t really feel like Herbert is getting a free pass, I think most people see him as a pretty good QB who’s been very disappointing in the playoffs. Herbert may be occasionally hyped up too much but I think that has died down, especially after his 4 pick performance in last year’s playoff loss.
The only knock on Lamar is that he’s never made the Super Bowl - he’s clearly one of the top 4 QBs in the NFL, and I think most people acknowledge that. I find it a bit odd that Lamar seems to be criticized more than Josh Allen for never making a Super Bowl - both Allen and Lamar are top 4 QBs who just haven’t gotten to the big game.

Lamar is a 2 time MVP and 3 time all-pro, so he gets more criticism. Simple enough.

Herbert deserves criticism, but not as much as Trevor IMO. I was surprised they paid Trevor, but they structured that deal so that they can escape before the money gets huge.

Tom Brady and Peyton Manning are two, that’s easy. I think Goff has thrown for 100+ TDs with both the Rams and Lions, so he’s one. Hmm, not sure about the last one.

Kurt Warner would be my first guess

The Jaguars can't really escape from Lawrence's contract. The 1st 3 seasons, (total of $114M), plus $29M of year 4 money, (total of $143M), is fully guaranteed. If they cut bait after 3 seasons it will cost them a total of $155.5M. Cutting him after year 4 would cost an additional $46.5M, (total of $202M). That would be a mistake because the 5th year would already be fully guaranteed and it wouldn't trigger any guarantees in year 6. The cost will end up being 3 years at $155M or 5 years at $202M. Realistically he's there for 5 years, (through 2028), unless his play falls off a cliff. I think he's being paid fair amounts of money, but I hate the guarantee structure.

Correct

Yep, so it would be 3 Rsms and Brady and Manning. Four possible Hall of Famers

Yeah the only thing that will make that hurt less is if we win a Super Bowl sometime before too long. It really pisses me off that Matty Ice never got a ring, he was a great QB for us for a long time, and the Super Bowl 51 choke was NOT his fault, Shanahan’s play calling was stupid at the end, we should’ve run the ball 3 straight plays and then kicked a FG when we were in Pats territory near the end, it would’ve put us up 31-20 and basically sealed the game, instead the dumbass called a pass play on 2nd down and we got a sack and a holding penalty and had to punt. Still pisses me off to think about it.
We also choked in the 2012 NFC Title Game, we had a better team than the Niners that year IMO, and we might’ve been able to beat the Ravens in the Super Bowl.
That Super Bowl 51 choke has haunted us for almost a decade, I’m hoping we’ve turned a corner now and will be a strong team again, I am more excited for the Falcons this season than I have been in a long time.

You weren't meant to win. That division belonged to Drew Brees, evidenced by four straight division titles and 11+ win seasons. Until YKW happened.

BTW, I know this is the NFL forum, not the NBA, but since I never post in there, I thought it worthy to mention that it's a bit refreshing to see two small markets representing the 2025 NBA finals: Indianapolis and Oklahoma City are two of the smaller, if not smallest markets in the NBA. My guess is their respective cities and fan bases are ecstatic over the hype they'll be receiving in the next couple of weeks.

The NBA needed this for a while. The Eastern conference has been competitive again. The West has as well, but the Luka trade to LA really screwed things up.

It's nice to hear that the 'Sonics' are being appreciated and are doing well. (Hides).

I have wanted to come up with a dumb blond joke in connection to the Sonics and Thunder.

 

[Brees#1]

6 of those 10 playoff games are against my Bears fellow Norris opponents. It's the price you pay when you're in a tough division.

When it comes to the Sonics I don't think anyone is going to top Elias.

Brees is one. I'd say:
Cousins, Peyton and Tarkenton

It was Warner, Manning, Brady and Goff

I didn't think Brady got to 100 in only 3 years
