NFC West ranks 2nd among all divisions in quarterback play

In most seasons, teams would be wrapping up minicamps before they break for the summer and the start of training camps at the end of July. This year, however, has been radically changed by the coronavirus pandemic which has led to a virtual offseason.

Regardless, there is still hope for the future and a 2020 season. With that said, NFL.com contributing columnist Adam Schein is looking ahead to which division will provide the best quarterback play this year and the NFC South – comprised of Falcons’ Matt Ryan, Panthers’ Teddy Bridgewater, Saints’ Drew Brees and Buccaneers’ Tom Brady – top the list.

Russell Wilson and the rest of the NFC West come in at a close second.

“At age 31, Wilson is a megastar and already a first-ballot Hall of Famer,” Schein writes. “He makes everyone around him better. He has a mind-meld with Tyler Lockett, and don’t sleep on D.K. Metcalf making another leap to true stardom in Year 2. Russ headlines the division.”

Kyler Murray, Jared Goff and Jimmy Garoppolo round out the West’s signal-callers who are also likely to have impressive seasons in 2020 earning the division the No. 2 spot.
