TIER 1:
Aaron Rodgers (2005-Present) – 4.52
The 3-time MVP is starting a new journey with the New York Jets next season. This is after a career of being the most efficient Quarterback in NFL history with advanced stats to prove that fact.
TIER 2:
Patrick Mahomes (2017-Present) – 3.92
For the ridiculous amount of risks Patrick Mahomes has taken, he should not be this high on this list. He is the best Quarterback in the NFL today and arguably the most talented Quarterback ever.
TIER 3:
Russell Wilson (2012-Present) – 3.14
Tom Brady (2000-22) – 3.06
“Let Russ Cook” is no longer a thing. He went from one of the most beloved QBs in the NFL, to struggling to get anything going with the Broncos. Tom Brady is the best Quarterback ever and this is another stat that proves it.
