The NFL has a plethora of premier talent at quarterback between veteran players entering their prime — like Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow — and those on the rise, such as second-year starter C.J. Stroud and rookie Jayden Daniels.
That said, who are the best signal-callers in the game’s biggest moments?
Colin Cowherd provided his top 10 crunch-time quarterbacks on Thursday’s edition of “The Herd.”
Let’s get to it!
10. Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens
Cowherd’s thoughts: “Lamar hasn’t been as successful as you think he has late, but it should be noted [that] in the last two minutes of his career, Lamar has a 120.0 passer rating.”
9. Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys
Cowherd’s thoughts: “I may criticize Dak, but he was 3-0 in one-score games last year. Now, [the Cowboys] get their teeth kicked in about four times a year. In blowouts, he can be ugly, but in close games, Dak’s a grown up. Dak generally throws to the right guy. I don’t think he has the biggest arm. He doesn’t move around like Kyler Murray, but I just trust the IQ [and] the EQ.”
8. Brock Purdy, San Francisco 49ers
Cowherd’s thoughts: “This is where Brock Purdy won me over last week. Last week was a proving point. No Christian McCaffrey, no Deebo [Samuel], no [George] Kittle. Again, [Matthew] Stafford and [Sean] McVay. He didn’t win the game, but he won me over.”
7. Jordan Love, Green Bay Packers
Cowherd’s thoughts: “I don’t have a huge resume, but I love Jordan Love. He had three game-winning drives last year in his first full season as a starter.”
6. C.J. Stroud, Houston Texans
Cowherd’s thoughts: “Now, I don’t have a big resume to work with, [but he had a] 75-yard game-winning drive [with] 40 seconds [remaining] against the [Buccaneers]. Like, it’s impressive; I’m sorry.”
5. Aaron Rodgers, New York Jets
Cowherd’s thoughts: “Aaron is good, but I’ve never thought he’s as great trailing as an [John] Elway, [Patrick] Mahomes, [Tom] Brady or a Matt Stafford. In the last two years, half his wins are game-winning…
