#icouldbewrong but here are the 14 playoff bound quarterbacks ranked 1-14 based on which has the most pressure to win down to the least pressure to win.
Matthew Stafford - Jared Goff took a less talented Rams team to the Super Bowl just a few years ago and won a playoff game just last year. If the Matthew Stafford that played the last quarter of the season shows up in the playoffs, the Rams are going to be watching another team hoist the Lombardi trophy in their building.
Dak Prescott - Time to find out what $40M gets you, Jerry. They have the highest scoring offense in the league and in team history, but none of that matters if Dak doesn't put more jewelry on Jerry's hand.
Jimmy Garoppolo - This is his chance to increase his market value and stick it to the Niners on the way out the door. he will be looking to negotiate a new contract with whichever team he is traded to this off season. So, he needs to come up big this winter.
Jalen Hurts - If he wants to go into next season with no one lurking over his shoulder, this is his opportunity to prove he's the Eagles' QB of the future.
Josh Allen - After an underwhelming regular season, the pressure's on to get the Bills to the Super Bowl after coming up short last year.
Ryan Tannehill - His performance over the past 2 post seasons has left a lot to be desired. Time to prove he can lead his team to the big game.
Aaron Rodgers - After holding the Packers hostage for the entire off season, he has a top defense, home field advantage, and no excuses. If he didn't already have a ring, he'd be much higher on the list.
Kyler Murray - Arizona didn't finish strong and Kyler Murray is missing his best weapon. So not a lot of expectations for him to go out and win anything this year.
Joe Burrow - Nobody outside of Cincy expected this team to be here, so Smokin' Joe is playing with house money for the most part.
Mac Jones - He plays for the Patriots and the guy he's replacing has 6 rings in that uniform. No pressure rook.
Derek Carr - The fact that his team even made the playoffs after the year they had in Las Vegas is absolutely remarkable. The only pressure on Derek Carr is the pressure he puts on himself to be great.
Patrick Mahomes - This guy has been to the last 2 Super Bowls and figures to be in a few more before he hangs up the cleats. So, there is very little outside pressure on him to win. That's all he does.
Tom Brady - He's Tom Brady. 10 Super Bowl starts with 7 wins. This dude could lose every game for the rest of his career, and it wouldn't matter.
Ben Roethlisberger - If there were ever a QB that gets a pass in the post season, it would be Ben Roethlisberger this year. There are approximately 75-100 people in the world that actually believe the Steelers are going to win against the Chiefs.
