By Matt Craig
Ask txhua pab pawg tsis muaj qhov zoo: txoj haujlwm tseem ceeb tshaj plaws hauv National Football League - thiab tej zaum hauv txhua yam kev ua si - yog lub quarterback. Franchise hmoov zoo nce thiab poob ntawm qhov zoo ntawm lawv cov teeb liab hu. Rau ib tug puv tes ntawm transcendent slingers tiag tiag, pab pawg tau ua pov thawj tsis muaj nqi uas lawv yuav tsis them. Yog vim li cas tus sab saum toj 10 of Forbes' NFL cov neeg ua si tau nyiaj ntau tshaj plaws yog txhua lub quarterbacks.
Txawm li cas los xij xyoo no AFC thiab NFC Championship Games qhia tias tsuas yog qhov tseem ceeb tshaj li cov neeg tseem ceeb quarterback yog cov neeg tseem ceeb quarterback uas pheej yig. Peb ntawm plaub pawg uas yuav mus rau hnub Sunday nrog kev txhaj tshuaj ntawm Super Bowl tau pib quarterbacks tau txais ib feem ntawm qhov NFL quarterbacks feem ntau ua: $ 3.9 lab rau Cincinnati's Joe Burrow, $ 1.2 lab rau Philadelphia's Jalen Hurts thiab $ 782,000 rau San Francisco's Brock Purdy. Ntawm $ 29.5 lab, Patrick Mahomes ntawm Kansas City yog tus tshaj tawm. Nws yog tib tug ntawm plaub tus uas tau nyiaj ntau dua $ 12.8 lab, cov pab koomtes nruab nrab rau kev pib quarterbacks.
Tus nqi pheej yig pib quarterbacks ua rau nws nyob deb yog ntau txoj cai tshaj li lawv yog cov txheeb cais tsis sib xws. Ntawm 23 lub quarterbacks los pib hauv kev sib tham sib tw ncaws pob hauv kaum xyoo dhau los, 13 tau cog lus qis dua $ 6 lab. Tag nrho tab sis peb ntawm cov no tau them tsawg dua $ 3 lab hauv lub caij muab, thiab ob zaug rov tshwm sim - Russell Wilson hauv 2013 thiab 2014, thiab Patrick Mahomes hauv 2018 thiab 2019.
AFC Thiab NFC Championship Pib Quarterbacks
Cov qauv pib nrog kev tsim cov nyiaj ua haujlwm tshiab nyob rau hauv 2011 kev sib cog lus sib cog lus. Qhov ntawd txwv tsis pub muaj peev xwm ntawm cov ntawv xaiv los tuav thiab sib tham txog cov nyiaj hli siab dua rau thawj plaub lub caij nyoog ntawm lawv txoj haujlwm. Sam Bradford 78 xyoo, $ 2010 lab rookie mega-deal hauv 22 yog qhov kawg ntawm nws hom. Xyoo tom ntej, sab saum toj xaiv Cam Newton tau kos npe rau plaub xyoos thiab $ 1 lab, nrog rau pab pawg xaiv uas txuas ntxiv mus rau xyoo tsib. Nws coj Panthers mus rau Super Bowl. Txawm tias ib xyoo caum tom qab, Trevor Lawrence tus No. 36.8 tag nrho deal yog tsim nyog tsuas yog plaub lub xyoos, $ 24 lab - $ XNUMX lab nyob rau hauv ib tug kos npe rau lawm thiab tsuas yog ob peb lab nyob rau hauv lub hauv paus nyiaj hli.
Quarterbacks uas qhia cov lus cog tseg thaum ntxov tseem tsis muaj nqis, cia lawv pab pawg los nqis peev nyiaj rau lwm txoj haujlwm. Cov nyiaj hli ib pab neeg txuag ntawm cov tub ntxhais hluas quarterback tuaj yeem raug xa rov qab, piv txwv li, rau cov hosses uas tiv thaiv nws ntawm txoj kab tawm tsam. Xyoo no, piv txwv li, txheeb ze rau lawv cov pheej yig quarterbacks, Bengals, 49ers thiab Eagles tag nrho cov nyiaj them poob haujlwm tshaj $ 200 lab.
Tim Derdenger, tus kws tshaj lij ntawm Carnegie Mellon's Tepper School of Business hais tias "Nws yuav tsum tsis txhob xav tsis thoob tias peb ntawm plaub pawg playoff tseem muaj QBs hluas." "Ib QB tsis yeej [playoff] kev ua si, ib pab neeg ua tiav."
Qhov ntawd tsis tau txhais hais tias quarterbacks tsis tsim nyog rau cov hmoov zoo uas lawv tau txais thaum kawg. Xyoo kaum xyoo dhau los no tau tswj hwm los ntawm cov nyiam Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers thiab tam sim no Mahomes, uas yuav ua rau nws thib tsib sib law liag AFC Championship tshwm rau hnub Sunday - ob ntawm lawv ntawm qhov pheej yig rookie deal.
Them Mahomes txhais tau tias nyiaj tsawg dua rau tus so ntawm cov npe. Cov Thawj Coj yuav tsum tau hais lus zoo rau lub caij no rau cov neeg tseem ceeb los ntawm pab pawg sib tw dhau los, suav nrog Tyreek Hill, Tyrann Mathieu thiab Melvin Ingram. Lub nra tsuas yuav nce ntxiv rau xyoo tom ntej thaum Mahomes pib thawj lub caij ntawm nws 10-xyoo, $ 450 lab daim ntawv cog lus txuas ntxiv.
Lub caij no, kev poob qis hauv kev ua tau zoo tuaj yeem hloov pauv daim ntawv cog lus loj quarterback mus rau hauv lub thauj tog rau nkoj uas rub ib pab neeg mus rau hauv qab ntawm kev faib tawm. Lub caij nplooj zeeg kawg, Broncos tau kos npe rau Russell Wilson rau tsib xyoos, $ 245 lab daim ntawv cog lus, tsuas yog pom nws cuam tshuam tsawg tshaj plaws ntawm nws txoj haujlwm. Broncos ua tiav lub caij nrog 5-12 cov ntaub ntawv, zoo rau qhov chaw kawg hauv AFC West.
Nyob rau hauv cov xwm txheej no, daim ntawv cog lus plaub xyoos rookie feem ntau tuaj yeem xav tias zoo li lub quarterback nkaus xwb los ua pov thawj nws tus kheej. Cov pab pawg muaj feem ntau dua li yav dhau los txiav kev sib raug zoo nrog cov tub ntxhais hluas lub quarterbacks thiab sim lawv txoj hmoo nrog cov chav kawm ntawv yav tom ntej. Cov dav hlau ua lawv tus yam ntxwv tsis txaus ntseeg. Pab neeg no tau sau ib lub quarterback nyob rau hauv lub thib ob puag ncig nyob rau hauv 2013 (Geno Smith), ces dua nyob rau hauv lub thib ob puag ncig nyob rau hauv 2016 (Christian Hackenberg), thiab sab saum toj-peb xaiv nyob rau hauv 2018 (Sam Darnold ntawm No. 3) thiab 2021 (Zach Wilson ntawm No. 2). Tsuas yog Wilson tseem nyob nrog pab pawg, thiab ntev npaum li cas yog leej twg xav tau.
Qee lub sij hawm cov kev xaiv no muab cov txiaj ntsig zoo ntawm kev nqis peev, ib yam li Burrow, tus qub No. 1 tag nrho xaiv. Lwm lub sij hawm pab pawg tau txais ntau tshaj li qhov xav tau. Mahomes thiab Hurts ob leeg tau tsim los ua cov thaub qab los tsim thiab them nyiaj ntau heev, thiab Purdy tau los rau hauv lub caij no raws li QB thib peb ntawm 49ers 'qhov tob daim ntawv qhia tom qab yog qhov kawg xaiv kawg hauv cov qauv.
Lawv pab pawg tau pom muaj kev vam meej, thiab tam sim no lawv yuav tsum tau ntsib lwm qhov tseeb: pheej yig quarterbacks tsis nyob pheej yig ntev.
