Here are all the details about the top ten quarterbacks heading into the new upcoming 2022/2023 season of the NFL.

The NFL season is about to start again. Football is finally coming back after a long break, and fans are happy about it. All of the teams made the most of the offseason and improved their teams so they could reach their goals this season.

Last year’s season was great, and the playoffs were a big part of that. We saw a lot of upsets, and a lot of players became great in the league because of how well they did last time.

One of the most important positions in the NFL is the quarterback position. The team is most often than not identified by the type of quarterback that they have.

Without a good quarterback, your team is unlikely to perform well, and there are many good quarterbacks in the NFL right now. Here we are going to talk about the top ten quarterbacks in the NFL heading into the 2022/2023 season, based on their performance in recent history.

10. Dak Prescott – Dallas Cowboys

Dak Prescott is the quarterback of the most famous NFL Franchise. He had a great season last year after coming back from a serious injury and is expected to get even better this season.

Dak Prescott has played 6 seasons for the Cowboys. He has thrown for 22,083 yards and 143 touchdowns. He was selected to play in 2 Pro Bowls and has won the Offensive Rookie of the Year award.

9. Russell Wilson – Denver Broncos

Russell Wilson didn’t have the best of seasons last time around, but that was largely due to his injury. Now he is on a much better season, and the former Super Bowl winner has the opportunity to show the world why he is one of the best players of this era.

Russell Wilson has played 10 seasons for the Seahawks. Wilson has thrown for 37,059 yards and 292 touchdowns. He was selected to play in 6 Pro Bowls. He has won the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award and 1 championship.

Lamar Jackson is another quarterback who was impacted by injuries. He was having another MVP-caliber season last time around, but injuries ruined his season. Lamar is one of the best players at his best position, and not many players possess the ability that he has while having the ball. He is a dual threat, and that is what makes him so special.

Lamar Jackson has played 4 seasons for the Ravens. He has thrown for 9,967 yards and 84 touchdowns. He was selected to play in 1 Pro Bowl and has won 1 MVP award.

7. Justin Herbert – Los Angeles Chargers

Some people may even argue that Justin Herbert deserves to be much higher on this list, as he has completely taken the NFL by storm in just two seasons. He has a bright future ahead, and next year at the same time, Herbert could well be among the top 3 QBs in this league.

Justin Herbert has played 2 seasons for the Chargers. He has thrown for 9,350 yards and 69 touchdowns. He has won the Offensive Rookie of the Year award.

6. Matthew Stafford – Los Angeles Rams

Matthew Stafford shut all his critics last season. After playing on a bad team throughout his career, Stafford was traded to the Rams last season, and he won the Super Bowl with them. He made some huge plays in the playoffs, and without him, the Rams might not have won the Super Bowl.

Matthew Stafford has played 13 seasons for the Lions and Rams. Stafford has thrown for 49,995 yards and 323 touchdowns. He was selected to play in 1 Pro Bowl. He has won 1 Comeback Player of the Year award and 1 championship.

5. Joe Burrow – Cincinnati Bengals

Another young quarterback who has put the world to notice in just two seasons is Joe Burrow. After coming back from a horrible ACL injury in his rookie season, Burrow took the Bengals to the Super Bowl while also winning the division. He is primed to be a great quarterback in the future, and this is just the start of his dominance in the league.

Joe Burrow has played 2 seasons for the Bengals. He has thrown for 7,299 yards and 47 touchdowns. He has won 1 Comeback Player of the Year award.

4. Tom Brady – Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tom Brady is unarguably the greatest football player of all time. Despite his old age, Brady is still one of the best quarterbacks in the league. He had a great season last time around, and we are expected to see another great season from the GOAT.

Tom Brady has played 22 seasons for the Patriots and Buccaneers. Brady has thrown for 84,520 yards and 624 touchdowns. He was selected to play in 14 Pro Bowls. He has won 1 Comeback Player of the Year award, 2 Offensive Player of the Year awards, 3 MVP awards, 5 Super Bowl MVP awards, and 7 championships.

Josh Allen arguably is on the team that has the best roster in the NFL. He had a great season last year and elevated his game to the next level in the playoffs. Allen will be expected to take the Bills to a Super Bowl run in the upcoming season.

He will be in the MVP race this year and has a great chance to win it as well. Josh Allen has played 4 seasons for the Bills. He has thrown for 14,114 yards and 103 touchdowns.

2. Aaron Rodgers – Green Bay Packers

The reigning NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers can be considered the best quarterback right now. However, due to his playoff failures, he will be placed in the 2nd spot, but Rodgers would love to prove every one of us wrong. He would love to reach the 2nd Super Bowl of his career in the upcoming season.

Aaron Rodgers has played 17 seasons for the Packers. Rodgers has thrown for 55,360 yards and 449 touchdowns. He was selected to play in 8 Pro Bowls. He has won 4 MVP awards, 1 Super Bowl MVP award, and 1 championship.

Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback in the NFL right now. Whether you want to see regular season stats or playoff starts, Mahomes has done it all. He will be extra motivated this season, and there is a great chance we can see Mahomes elevating his game to the next level.

Patrick Mahomes has played 5 seasons for the Chiefs. Mahomes has thrown for 18,991 yards and 151 touchdowns. He was selected to play in 2 Pro Bowls. He has won 1 Offensive Player of the Year award, 1 MVP award, 1 Super Bowl MVP award, and 1 championship.
