Prescott, Hurts, Howell, & Jones: Ranking the NFC East quarterbacks

With less than four months until the first games of the 2023 season, many fans desperately await. With the 2023 NFL draft now behind us, many fans anticipate what their favorite team’s 53-man roster will look like.

Some teams have uncertainty with the quarterback position. Teams such as the Tennessee Titans, Carolina Panthers and the San Francisco 49ers starting quarterback decision will likely come down to the wire.

Thankfully for the NFC East, the quarterback position is certain.

We know the Dallas Cowboys will go with two-time Pro Bowler Quarterback Dak Prescott. Prescott threw a career-high 15 interceptions last season.

This career high may have been an anomaly, however, Prescott will remain the starter. While some fans wanted a change of scenery at quarterback, there’s no denying that Prescott is the best option.

The New York Giants just signed Daniel Jones to a four-year extension worth 160 million dollars.

The four-year quarterback is coming off a career low in interceptions thrown. After much speculation before the start of the 2022 season, the Giants finally have their franchise quarterback.

The Philadelphia Eagles are coming off a sensational year. The Eagles would find themselves in the Super Bowl, however, they fell short as they met their match against the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes.

After finishing off with a career-high in touchdowns, Jalen Hurts netted a five-year extension with the Eagles. Along with contract incentives, this deal finds itself worth about 255 million dollars.

The Washington Commanders will most likely turn to second-year quarterback, Sam Howell.

Many Dallas Cowboys fans will remember Howell, as he led the Commanders to a victory against Dallas last year.

In the season finale against Dallas, this was Howell’s only start and game played.

He threw for 169 yards with one touchdown and one interception. This was enough for Head Coach Ron Rivera to thrust Howell’s name into QB1 talks during the Commanders’ search for an offensive coordinator.

Now that the quarterbacks are mentioned, here comes the fun part. Ranking them.

The ranks will go by stats, as well as offensive weapons available.
