QB Jersey Numbers


Recommended Posts

All the talk about a number for Cam Newton got me thinking, what is the most successful quarterback number in the NFL. Here is what I cam up with.

#7- 13 (Notable: Matt Cassel, Ben Roethlisberger, Michael Vick)

#5- 11 (Notable: Joe Flacco, Josh Freeman, Donovan McNabb)

#8- 10 (Notable: Matt Schaub, Sam Bradford, Matt Hasselbeck)

#10- 9 Notable: Eli Manning)

#9- 9 (Notable: David Garrard, Drew Brees, Tony Romo)

#12- 8 (Notable: Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers)

#3- 8 (Notable: Matt Moore)

#4- 8 (Notable: Kevin Kolb)

#6- 7 (Notable: Mark Sanchez, Jay Cutler)

#14- 4 (Notable: Ryan Fitzpatrick)

#16- 4 (Notable: Tony Pike)

#11- 4 (Notable: Kellen Clemens)

#2- 3 (Notable: Matt Ryan)

#17- 2 (Notable: Philip Rivers)

#18- 2 (Notable: Peyton Manning)

#19- 2 (Notable: John Skelton)

#1- 1 (Notable: Troy Smith)

#13- 1 (Notable: J.T. O'Sullivan)

#15- 1 (Notable: The Golden Calf of Bristol)

Super Bowl Wins by Number

#12 X15 (Tom Brady, Trent Dilfer, Stan Humphries, Terry Bradshaw, Rodger Staubach, Ken Stabler, Bob Griese, Joe Namath)

#16 X8 (Mark Rypien, Joe Montana, Jim Plunkett, Len Dawson)

#7 X6 (Ben Roethlisberger, John Elway, Joe Theismann)

#15 X4(Jeff Hostetler, Earl Morrall, Bart Starr)

#8 X3(Troy Aikman)

#9 X2 (Drew Brees, Jim McMahon)

#18 (Peyton Manning)

#17 (Doug Williams)

#14 (Brad Johnson)

#13 (Kurt Warner)

#10 (Eli Manning)

#4 (Brett Favre)

With that said, what number would you like to see Cam Newton in next year? If he doesn't get #2, I personally think #5 or #15 would suit Newton well.

Note: #12 is without a doubt the most successful number, maybe Cam should pay Gettis for #12

What do you guys think?

I assume this is a list of the numbers of each QB in the NFL? That would make it a "what number is more popular" discussion and not a "which is more successful"

If you want to make a list of the number of the QB that won each Super Bowl, then you could have a "successful QB number" discussion.

The notable players are what I am basing the successfulness of each number on.

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
