Bob's Quality Quarterbacks

Alright, BQQBs fam — time to wind it back to the late ’80s and talk about a guy who could sling it and do it with style: Boomer Esiason, aka The Blonde Bomber. Yup, that guy from TV and radio now, but once upon a time, he was out here torching defenses and making the Bengals look like actual Super Bowl contenders. (No, for real.) Lefty QBs always feel rare, and Boomer made it count. He had a smooth delivery, a big arm, and zero fear. You wanted deep balls? He was chuckin’ 'em. You wanted swagger? He had that, too — in that big-haired, 1980s, “I just drove my convertible to the game” kind of way. His peak? 1988. Dude won MVP, threw for over 3,500 yards and 28 TDs, and led Cincinnati to a 12–4 record and a Super Bowl appearance. And look — he almost got that ring. Came this close to beating Joe Montana in Super Bowl XXIII. If the Bengals’ defense had gotten one more stop? Whole different legacy. But it wasn’t just one good season. Boomer was a consistent producer for years. He fin...

Alright, time to give some love to a guy who doesn’t always get the hype but keeps showing up and doing work — Jared Goff. He came into the league with that laid-back Cali energy, first overall pick back in 2016, and yeah, things started a little rocky (we all remember that rough rookie season with the Rams). But then... boom. Sean McVay shows up and suddenly Goff’s slinging it all over the field like a whole new dude. He helped take the Rams to the Super Bowl in 2018 — didn’t win it, but still, not a small feat. Goff was dealing that year. 4,600+ yards, 32 TDs, and some crazy shootouts (that MNF game vs the Chiefs? Still wild). But then the vibes kinda faded. McVay lost patience, and next thing you know, Goff gets shipped off to Detroit like he’s yesterday’s news. And this is where it gets fun. Everyone thought the Lions were just taking on his contract to get those picks. But nah. Goff said “watch this” and started ballin’ out again. In 2023, he looked like a guy completely in cont...

Okay okay okay... let’s talk about Jayden freakin’ Daniels, because this dude is electric. Like, plug-him-into-the-grid electric. If you watched even one LSU game last season, you know what I’m talking about. Dude was putting on a show every week—juking defenders, dropping dimes, and making it all look way too easy. Transferred from Arizona State to LSU and just leveled up. In 2023? Man went nuclear. Threw for over 3,800 yards, 40 TDs, and ran for over 1,100 with 10 more on the ground. That’s videogame numbers. And not even on rookie mode. Like, this was legit Heisman-winning stuff. He basically turned every play into a highlight reel. Blink and you missed a 60-yard bomb or a defender falling over trying to tackle him. And it’s not just the stats. The poise, the vision, the speed—he just gets it. You can tell he’s been grinding and growing every season. LSU gave him the stage, and he lit it up like Times Square on New Year’s. Super calm in the pocket, but when it breaks down? Bye. Go...

Okay, turns out my new job isn't all that great... and I might be quitting soon. Why can't things be easy ?! Anyway, not sure if I'll stay here or go back to Frisco but either way, I'll try to keep up the blog. Thanks again for sticking with me. Yall are the reason I do this :D

BQQBs is back, baby! Sorry for the unannounced hiatus. I got a new job! And had to move across town. Happier now, and hopefully will be posting more. Thanks for sticking with me :) Okay, another throwback this time. Let’s shine a light on Ken Stabler, a quarterback who doesn’t always get the spotlight but was absolutely top-notch during his career. Playing for the Oakland Raiders from 1970 to 1979, Stabler was known for his clutch performances and smooth, efficient play. He led the Raiders to a Super Bowl victory in 1976 and was named the Super Bowl XI MVP. Stabler’s play style was all about that cool, calm demeanor and precision. He wasn’t the flashiest guy, but he had a knack for making big throws and coming through in crucial moments. One of his standout games was in the 1976 playoffs against the Pittsburgh Steelers—despite the tough competition, Stabler threw for 310 yards and 3 touchdowns, leading the Raiders to the Super Bowl. He doesn’t always get the credit he deserves compa...

Well, it was inevitable. We had to get to Rodgers eventually. So... let’s dive in! this guy’s got a career that’s as fascinating as it is controversial. Known for his incredible arm talent and football IQ, Rodgers has been lighting up the NFL with the Green Bay Packers since 2008. He’s a Super Bowl champion, a multiple-time MVP, and has thrown for over 4,000 yards in nearly every season he’s been healthy. His 2020 season was especially impressive with 48 touchdowns and just 5 interceptions. Rodgers’ play style is pure magic. He’s got an arm that can make any throw, and his ability to read defenses is top-notch. Remember that 2021 game against the Arizona Cardinals where he threw for 184 yards and 1 touchdown, including a last-minute drive that clinched the win? Classic Rodgers. But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Rodgers has had his share of drama—whether it’s his public feuds with management or his unconventional views, he’s definitely stirred the pot. Some fans and analysts qu...

Man, where do I even start with this guy? Drafted by the Chicago Bears as the second overall pick in 2017, expectations were sky-high, but Trubisky hasn’t exactly lived up to the hype. His time with the Bears was marked by inconsistency and missed opportunities. In his best season, 2018, he managed over 3,200 passing yards and 24 touchdowns, but he struggled with accuracy and decision-making, and his playoff performances were lackluster at best. Trubisky’s play style is supposed to be all about athleticism and mobility, but he often seems to get rattled under pressure. His inability to consistently read defenses and make accurate throws has been a major issue. Take his 2019 season—he threw for just 3,138 yards and 17 touchdowns while also adding 10 interceptions. That kind of performance is just not what you want from a top draft pick. Critics have been harsh, and honestly, it’s hard to argue with them. Trubisky has been criticized for his poor decision-making and lack of development...
