Ranking Age 40+ QB Seasons


x0x

Recommended Posts

Although it's mostly Kickers or Quarterbacks who even play at 40+ but we're sticking to QBs with 3 guys last decade showing strong outings.

I think for fairness the QB should be age 40 for majority of the season so 2009 Favre qualifies.

Obviously Brady at age 41 & 40 is probably gonna be Top 2 for most if not all. One is season MVP and 500 yards in Super Bowl and the other is SB MVP. Hard to argue.

I still put Favre 09 at 3rd behind. Then given the time period Warren Moon at 41 in Seattle. Brees this year would be my 5th.

Testaverde and Blanda round out somewhere in the Top 10 along with Brady this year and Favre's 2010.

I think these are, in no order, the top four:

Drew Brees (2019): 281/378 (74.34%), 2,979 passing yards, 27 TDs, 4 INTs, 8.33 ANY/A, 7.1 TD%, 1.06 INT%, 13-3 Record, lost in Wild Card Round

Tom Brady (2018): 375/570 (65.79%), 4,355 passing yards, 29 TDs, 11 INTs, 7.26 ANY/A, 5.1 TD%, 1.93 INT%, 11-5 Record, won Super Bowl

Tom Brady (2017): 385/581 (66.27%), 4,577 passing yards, 32 TDs, 8 INTs, 7.56 ANY/A, 5.5 TD%, 1.38 INT%, 13-3 Record, lost Super Bowl

Brett Favre (2009): 363/531 (68.36%), 4,202 passing yards, 33 TDs, 7 INTs, 7.61 ANY/A, 6.2 TD%, 1.32 INT%, 12-4 Record, lost NFC Championship

 

I think my #1 is 2017 Brady because his regular-season statistics were pretty dominant, he led the Patriots to a 13-3 record, and he was masterful in the playoffs.

No brainer even with only 10 games Brees has the best regular season per game.  It not even a discussion look at the numbers. Surpass them in every single category. with 6 more games he would be a MVP candidate even with Jackson season.

Hasn't Brees's arm kinda fell off late in the season these last few years? Missing those games might've saved him for the playoffs.

His arm has been weak for years, since at least 2014, maybe late 2013.  But it started looking consistently weak in 2017, which is when we started running the ball and playing some semblance of defense.

Due seriously. That year wasn't even better than Farve's year.

It ranks
