What is every current NFL starting quarterback's kryptonite or hurdle?

National Football League quarterbacks are the key to the NFL and every team's chances of winning games and Super Bowls. However, they faced hurdles to winning games and successful seasons and records. 

Over the years, we have seen it. 

Peyton Manning (Colts, Broncos) was Tom Brady, Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots. 

Tom Brady (Patriots) was and probably still is Eli Manning and the Giants, Peyton Manning, defenses, etc., Roger Goodell. 

Aaron Rodgers (Packers) is probably Defensive Coordinator Dom Capers and his injuries.

What is every current NFL starting quarterback's kryptonite from gaining success?

Notable weak points for Wentz.
 

  • Can struggle with deep ball accuracy, but improving
  • Can struggle vs the Blitz, improving
  • A bit too reckless with his body at times
  • Inconsistent accuracy, improving

He doesn't have any glaring weaknesses right now at this time.

Pretty much this

 Tendency to not set his feet before throwing leads to sailing passes high. McNabb threw worm burners, Wentz hits birds, if only they could do a dbz fusion

Brady’s kryptonite is pretty clearly the ability to get pressure (especially on the interior) without blitzing, and dropping 7 men into coverage. Blitzes with tight man coverage can also do the same. 

Are there really any QBs that don’t struggle with those things, though?

Carson Wentz, apparently.

In crunch time, Brees tries to win games in one play when he should be looking to keep a drive alive. It definitely has worked for him sometimes, it’s also led to some horrendous interceptions and heartbreaks over the years.

Blake Bortles- throwing accurate spirals, perhaps the most basic aspect of being a quarterback.

If only it weren't for that darned "throwing accurate spirals to the correct team" Kryptonite, man he'd be a heck of a quarterback.
