Stop us if you’ve heard this one before: the NFL is a quarterback league. That saying may be a bit worn out by now, but it is the truth.
No player on a team has as big an impact on success and failure as the quarterback. That is why it is the most important and expensive position on the roster, and why 15 of the last 16 league MVPs were picked from that group of players.
The New England Patriots have seen the peak of quarterback performance for two decades, with Tom Brady leading the team to an unprecedented run of success.
