Manning
Rivers
Brady
Rodgers
Brees
Rothlisberger
Even guys like Matt Ryan are getting up there in age...Russ and Stafford aren’t far behind.
The NFL needs an influx of talent at the QB position, but so many of the arm talents go to other sports nowadays.

The league changed the rules for QB’s when Pollard destroyed Brady’s knee. They changed it again when Rodgers got placed on IR by Anthony Barr.
More rules are coming after this. Besides Mahomes, Wentz and Watson were two of the NFL’s youngest stars and they already went through IR before.
This is a devastating loss to the league. It hurts the parity and makes that many games less watchable.
