5 Superstar QBs who might miss the NFL playoffs ft. Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and more

#3 - Aaron Rodgers

Green Bay Packers v Washington Commanders

Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers are in serious trouble in the 2022 NFL season.

Despite Rodgers passing for 11 touchdowns against just three picks, the Packers have won just three games all year and sit 3-4. The setbacks they faced included surprise losses to the New York Giants, the New York Jets, and the Washington Commanders.

Rodgers usually comes up clutch in games but is missing Davante Adams, his number-one target for years.

Green Bay is also facing stiff competition from division rivals Minnesota Vikings, who currently have a comfortable lead in the division, sitting 5-1.

#2 - Russell Wilson

New York Jets v Denver Broncos

Russell Wilson has failed to deliver success with the Denver Broncos after his blockbuster trade from the Seattle Seahawks during the 2022 NFL offseason.

Through seven weeks, the Broncos sit 2-5 and already appear to be out of the playoff picture, as the Chiefs have a mammoth lead at the top of the AFC West.

Wilson and new head coach Nathaniel Hackett have failed to mesh as Wilson has passed for just five touchdowns against three interceptions, and the Broncos offense has been unable to click so far.

Hackett has also been responsible for some questionable playcalling, and Denver are almost certainly out of the playoff picture this season.

#1 - Tom Brady

Tampa Bay Buccaneers v Carolina Panthers

Despite Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers sitting top of the NFC South, Brady has looked way off his usual best so far this year.

The Buccaneers and the Falcons sit 3-4 at the top of the division. Tampa Bay suffered an ugly 21-3 loss to the Carolina Panthers, who only had one win before the game.

Brady may have an 8-1 touchdown-interception ratio, but his play so far this year has failed to live up to his usual standards.

This year, Brady has lost to the Carolina Panthers, the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Green Bay Packers, and the Kansas City Chiefs. One could easily make the case that he could have won at least two of these games if he had been in peak form.
