Patrick Mahomes and the NFL’s new era at quarterback

The new era at quarterback: Carson Wentz, Marcus Mariota, Deshaun Watson, Patrick Mahomes.

These are just a few of the young quarterbacks who have come in and taken the league by storm, forcing an out-with-the-old, in-with-the-new mentality in NFL quarterback rooms. While the likes of Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers still dominate the win columns and are the faces of the entire league, the end could be near for the long-time heroes of the NFL.

The desire for a pass-heavy, downfield offense has never been higher in the history of the league. Having a 350+ yard, 3 touchdown game has become an ordinary game for a successful QB, yet somehow we are left wanting more.
