Which Class of 2018 QB Will Win a Super Bowl First? Will Go to the Super Bowl First?

[The Frankish Reich]

Mayfield, Darnold, Allen, Jackson*

 

All still in the hunt this year. It kind of surprises me that a class this good is still waiting for its first SB appearance, now nearing the end of their collective 32 seasons of NFL football. For comparison, the great Class of 1983 (Elway, Kelly, Marino) saw their first SB with Marino, then a couple with Elway, then already had one with Kelly by the end of their 8th season. (Yeah, and zero wins, but still.) And that's despite Kelly losing time to the USFL.

 

Right now I'm still sticking with Josh. I think the Bills patch it together and come back strong in the playoffs this year and the next couple years. But I can see a really good argument for any of the others too, particularly Darnold (that defense) and Lamar (those injuries won't last forever). Mayfield? I think he's a really good QB on a very average team.

 

*Josh Rosen exempted; he joins Todd Blackledge as a footnote to NFL history.

[Kelly to Allen]

Very similar to the 83 QB class. It definitely lived up to the hype 

[Wizard]

I am going with Allen. Best player easily at the most important position.

 

With that said, I like what Seattle is doing as far as constructing a roster with athletic and aggressive skill players.

Jackson - It won't be this year, none of the 4 will be this year but Lamar has the best coaching and probably is on the best roster of the four.

I agree mostly with what you said. The problem I'm having with the Bills is they are making the most important player and MVP a game manager by how they've constructed around him. Mainly WR.

I can see that. But I think he'll decline faster than Allen, so the clock is ticking.

[T.E.]

Darnold has a better chance this year than the other three, it seems.

[Gregg]

I will say Darnold. Seattle has a solid team. Allen will never get there with this FO. I have seen enough after 9 years to know it's not going to happen unless Terry cleans house.

You are seriously underestimating the chances of Josh Rosen coming back and leading the team that originally drafted him.. Arizona...to Super Bowl Glory. There will be Hallmark movies made about it 

[Maynard]

Yeah, I could see Darnold and the Hawks going this year! Got a fierce D led by Macdonald, JSN, etc. Now that Schneider doesn’t have Pete chirping in his ear, he’s starting to kill the draft as well.

Seattle could. The NFC has a lot of good teams this year, I wouldnt be shocked if Seattle ended up on top.

 

Baker is good enough, but the Bucs are incredibly injured. Maybe if they get hot

 

Bills have as good a shot as any in the AFC

 

Ravens - 😂

Or he'll be a crypto bro who buys the Cardinals and signs free agent Josh Allen to do a late-career Elway.

 

Josh Rosen is currently attending the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business, where he is pursuing a Master's degree in Business Administration. After his NFL career took him to multiple teams, he has shifted his focus to a business education.

It will be Darnold just because God has a twisted sense of humor.

Solid defense and things seem to go right. Their worst game of the season they barely lost; Rams.

Might be also. Tough one to call. Very different situations for each of their respective teams. 
 

It actually wouldn’t surprise me if the Ravens somehow found form and hit the playoff running given there’s a good chance they win that division.

If he does win one at least it wasn't with the Jets. I have nothing against the Seahawks. They just need to go back to the classic uniforms full time which look so much better the crap they wear now.

I see your cynical and sarcastic fiction occasionally ventures into fantasy. 🤔😁

And I see you occasionally veer off into 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' scale scenarios. 😁
