3 of 4 QBs remaining have already won a Super Bowl

Patriots - Brady gets his 4th ring at age 37, his 1st in 10 years, giving him the most all-time along with Montana and Bradshaw. Might have a few years left to get his 5th

Packers - Rodgers gets his 2nd ring at age 31, his 2nd in 5 years

Seahawks - Russell Wilson gets his 2nd ring at age 26 in just his third year. Becomes the 8th QB with consecutive SB wins after Brady, Elway, Aikman, Montana, Bradshaw (twice), HOFer Bob Griese, and Bart Starr

If Rodgers or Wilson get their 2nd ring, they will be tied with the 6th-most all-time SB wins alongside Elway, Staubach, Bart Starr, etc. And they will have plenty of time left to get their 3rd, which would put them alongside Tom Brady, Trok Aikman and Steve Young as the only QBs with 3 rings (and just behind Montana and Bradshaw)

Colts - Andrew Luck gets his 1st ring at age 25 in just his third year, putting him alongside other QBs with one ring like Peyton Manning, Brees, Rodgers, Joe Namath, Johnny Unitas, Favre, etc

Yup, and five of the eight playing this past weekend are among the seven QBs with rings.

 

Think about this, if New England wins next week then that will mean eleven of the past twelve AFC representatives in the Super Bowl will have been quarterbacked by Brady, Manning, or Roethlisberger.  Yay parity!!!

how 2014's final four QBs fared (regular season & postseason combined) in their first three years as a starter:

40-12* (76.9%) Tom Brady 2001-03.........2-0 in Super Bowls

41-13 (75.9%) Russell Wilson 2012-14....1-0 in Super Bowls

36-17 (67.9%) Andrew Luck 2012-14........0-0 in Super Bowls

31-22 (58.5%) Aaron Rodgers 2008-10.....1-0 in Super Bowls

* Brady did not start the first two games for the Patriots in 2001

    • I dont think that is worst case at all.  Worst case is Bryce is exactly like he was the last ten games and not really showing anything, making a decision hard.  If we suck this year there are like 5 potential franchise guys that should be coming out this year.
    • Bryce's play after coming back from his benching gives me a glimmer of hope but it's wild that a lot of Panthers fans are acting like he has arrived as a franchise QB because he put up some mediocre stats and basically simply just finally didn't look like a guy who flat out did not belong on an NFL field.  I'm anxious to see what he looks like this year and I'm hoping for continued growth but I still haven't seen anything that leads me to believe that he's capable of being a high level starter. Hoping he proves me wrong but honestly the worst case scenario would be that he comes out this year and plays like he did late last year. That's purgatory QB level. The type of guy who organizations get led to believe might be "good enough" but you're not competing for SBs with that level of QB play. I want Bryce to boom or bust this year. Go out there and prove me wrong and look like THAT DUDE or just revert back to looking like he doesn't belong. Don't leave me in purgatory. Let's get an answer to this question one way or the other.
    • Absolute worst case scenario for us is we suck, ignore the 5th year option, and draft a new QB onto a team that is pretty well built.  That being said, I think Bryce is turning a corner this year.
