NFL quarterback power rankings: Patrick Mahomes leads the way, Patriots need help

Seattle star Russell Wilson kicks off our top-3, as he not only has been one of the more durable quarterback during his time with the Seahawks, but one of the more successful. In fact, he should have two Super Bowl rings already, but a costly interception against the New England Patriots halted their chances of going back-to-back.

During his eight-year career with Seattle, Wilson has not missed a single start, becoming the franchise’s all-time leading passer. He has thrown for 227 touchdowns against only 68 interceptions, and is coming off his best statistical season, where he threw for over 4,100 yards and 31 touchdowns with only five interceptions.

When Lamar Jackson entered the draft process in 2018, many felt he should be moved to running back or wide receiver instead of quarterback, the position he won a Heisman Trophy playing during his time at Louisville. As a rookie, he took over for an injured Joe Flacco and showed he can win games at the NFL level, and in 2019, he took over the entire league.

Jackson went on to win the NFL’s Most Valuable Player award last season, proving that he is so much more than just a tremendous athlete. He got the job done with his arm, and his legs, while leading the Ravens to the top record in the AFC. Now he just has to get over his playoff hump.

Since coming into the NFL, Patrick Mahomes has taken the league by storm, winning Most Valuable Player awards, setting numerous passing records, and winning a Super Bowl last season. The kid out of Texas Tech can do it all, and it is really incredible all that he has been able to accomplish in his short NFL career.

Heading into the 2020 campaign, Mahomes is the top quarterback in the league, and he is only going to be better in Year 4. The Chiefs added a quality running back to the offense this offseason, giving him another weapon, which is downright scary for the rest of the league.
