40 Year Old Quarterbacks… How Have They Done Historically?

Спорт

There have only been 14 NFL Quarterbacks to ever start and win a game at the age of 40 and older. How will Aaron Rodgers do once he turns that age?

    Personally I think Tom Brady really elevated the stock of other players at similar ages, but he was ultimately the exception. Very few people can remain competitive in football at that age, let alone at age 45, and while Brady could, not that many other players could. Yet, teams are signing older QBs because they think they can produce like Brady can.

    @@morsumbra9692 For one, CB aren’t even close to other positions in terms of tackling if we wanna talk about physical demand. 2, tackling is NOT the same as getting tackled. If you have played football you know but even if you haven’t injuries will tell you that is definitely the case. 3, not only goes a QB get sacked on average during a full season about 30-40 times a year. They get HIT (separate stat) around 50+ times a year on top of that. Not to mention tackles they receive when they run which is more and more common, and stuff not accounted for like general contact they receive on most plays. They also throw the ball, which if you ask me, players like Brady and Brees who were still throwing well consistently every week multiple plays in a row at age 40 plus is very impressive. Especially Brady who could still drive the ball downfield with strength. I as a healthy young adult, do not have the endurance or arm strength to throw a foot ball 10+ yards 20-30+ times in a game bro. I’m not shitting on Corners because they have a specific and important job and those who do it really well deserve praise but I can’t look at Players who accomplished things like Brees or Brady did and honestly say it isn’t the most impressive feats for old players. Especially when we consider the fact that across all positions even for kickers it’s exceptionally rare to start or do well at all at 40+ lol

    I think Chicago Bears history could have been different had they held on to Flutie. Rewind to the 1987 NFL Draft. The Bears pass on Jim Harbaugh and draft the powerful running back Christian Okoye instead. Jim McMahon remains the starter at quarterback those two seasons, but with Okoye carrying the ball, the Bears steamroll their way to the Super Bowl in '87 and '88.

But the Vikings fumbled that game several times… I don’t think Brett was the reason they lost that game, he was the reason they were there.. Peterson doesn’t fumble twice it’s a way different story. On top of that the saints put a bounty on his head, and idc what you say the league was in on it. There were hits on Favre that deserved ejections and suspensions into the next season, they were trying to kill him… the league would never allow Brady to be hit like that

    I think the biggest thing that's overlooked (definitely gets mentioned but not emphasized enough I think) is what kind of game the greats of old played in. The hits and "protection" they had, from rules and equipment, was soo much more difficult and it's just not emphasized nearly enough. Then you have to remember the attitude at practices and games, the fields they played on, the training/medical techniques, all of that, was just a WHOLE different game. The thing I think I've never heard anyone mention is they dealt with those circumstances not just in the league, but high-school and college as well, and you have to know there was quite a few coaches that were just complete hard-asses that just ruined them. That's what completely floors me, different times, different men. (Copied from a thread cuz i think it's definitely important enough to mention)

    While I agree with a lot, the modern game has at least (if not more) injuries then in the early days. And while the rules have changed, the physicallity hasnt. Edge rushers are faster, heavier and stronger then in thos early days. And its not even close. A modern day OLB or DE is a former DT or OL men in the 60's and 70's... So if a 6'5 265 lbs guy who runs the 40 yeard dash in 4.5 seconds crushes down on you, it still hurts. There is a reason why Brady outlasted each and every player drafted like 5 years after him, while still being a top 10 QB in the league. Brady had the luck (or perfect body and stretching routine, dont know) to never have any serious upper body injuries. Not one... No neck injuries, no back injuries, no shoulder injuries, no elbow injuries... nothing. His legs dont really matter, cause he was never a mobile Quaterback. And all that while playing Football for over 30 years! Thats more or less a miracle while getting sacked 565 times in the NFL alone (all time record), not to mention 1000's of QB hits and all the sacks/hits he took before entering the NBA! If I look at Rodgers injury history on the other hand... I dont see him playing a lot more productive years in the league. 1, maybe 2 if he can stay healthy at best. So to bring it all full circle. Yes modern training methods, medical treatments became way better over the decades and the rule changes helped as well. But on the other hand the pressure put on the human bodies is even higher in my opinion. And thats true for basically every sport. How many guys played 82 games in the 70's and 80's in the NBA, how man do that today? Lebron (like brady) holds basically every scoring record in the League, but only played 82 games ONCE in his career... Kareem 8as an example) on the other hand 5 years...

    There's George Blanda who at age 43 in 1970 had a remarkable five-game run as a QB and kicker. Against the Steelers, Blanda threw for three touchdowns in relief of an injured Daryle Lamonica. One week later, his 48-yard field goal with three seconds remaining tied 17-17 the Kansas City Chiefs 17-17. Next game he again came off the bench to throw a touchdown pass to tie the Cleveland Browns with a minute 30 remaining, then kicked a 53-yard field goal with 3 seconds left for the 23-20 win. In the team's next game, Blanda replaced Lamonica in the fourth quarter and connected with Fred Biletnikoff on a touchdown pass with two minutes left in the game to defeat the Denver Broncos, 24-19. The following week, Blanda's 16-yard field goal in the closing seconds defeated the San Diego Chargers, 20-17

    I think the trend will most likely continue as stated in the video; Rodgers will have a solid first few seasons at age 40-41 before beginning to more noticeably decline. I can see him going out in a similar way to Brees, where he continues to produce in areas he has always been efficient at his entire career (TD/INT ratio, completion percentage, etc) but not at the level of his MVP years and the numbers will slowly go down. I dont see a Tom Brady late season renaissance and the jets will most likely be a low end wildcard team for the next few years that gets bounced early

    Look Aaron Rodgers is great but aside from the defense being quite a bit better, he’s going to offense with few playmakers and a worse line. I will accept that the Jets playmakers haven’t had a QB to truly bring them up so we will have to see but aside from that he’s in a division with a Super Bowl favorite in the Bills, and up and coming, electric offense with the Dolphins AND you can’t discount the Patriots who will play tough and hold their own. That’s just their division. The AFC will be a blood bath once again and you can’t get by on just being good, if you aren’t elite you might not even limp into a wildcard game lol
