Philadelphia Eagles starting quarterbacks

Philadelphia Eagles Quarterbacks

He did anything and everything, be it a yard bomb downfield , incredible scrambles , or the longest punt in franchise history Yeah, he has that record — not an actual punter. Had he not suffered the ACL tear and had this era of Eagles football produced a better body of success overall, he probably would've been the franchise's best QB, period.

Granted, Philadelphia sports and 'what could've been' have always gone hand in hand, so I guess that's poetic in a way. But look, there is very much a reason why you still see Kelly green No. What could have been if not for Bryce Paup. Yeah, Norm Van Brocklin's season alone, the final of his career, is more than enough to put him up there as one of the Eagles' all-time greatest quarterbacks.

Shamus Clancy : It's honestly disrespectful that he's this low on this ranking. Nick Foles did something no football player in this city has ever done, which is hoist the Lombardi Trophy and and win Super Bowl MVP honors along the way. Does it matter that he almost washed out of the league multiple times. He was in the playoffs, had one of the most efficient quarterback seasons in league history in and has done more for Philadelphia than Ben Franklin.

His best throws are better than any I've ever seen from an Eagles QB. I was the lone writer to have him in the top spot. Nick: Dick Vermeil built the Eagles toward that Super Bowl run in '80, but none of that happens without Wilbert Montgomery in the backfield, Harold Carmichael at receiver, and Jaws under center. Jaworski wasn't an "elite" quarterback, but he helped bring a run of success that, at that point, the Eagles hadn't seen in a long time and wouldn't for some time after.

Nick: A championship automatically puts you way up the list, and Thompson helped get the Eagles there in by leading the league with 25 touchdown passes and then won it all again in Evan : It's easy to forget now, but there was something special about the Eagles post, when Howie Roseman was able to masterfully overcome some horrible roster mistakes from the Chip Kelly era to trade up not once, but twice to take Wentz second overall.

Without him there is no Super Bowl — and there is no Jalen Hurts. And, without him there is no extra first rounder in that led to A. So thanks, I guess. Nick: Vick's season alone pretty much carries his place among the Eagles' best QBs, but at the same time — granted, in just my lifetime — I haven't seen as incredible of a performance before or since.

He still had the speed on the ground that made him a Madden cheat code years before, then put in his best year as a passer by far. The run didn't last long, but man, did that candle sure burn bright. Eagles quarterbacks over the years Evan : Jurgensen is known more for his 10 seasons in Washington and his numbers at first glance are nothing special. However, the Eagles fourth round pick was a backup for a lot of his career in Philly.

He had one spectacular season in , leading the Birds to a record a year after they won it all behind Van Brocklin. Jurgensen threw for 32 touchdowns and was MVP runner up. Shamus : " Jeff Garcia, baby, he's our baby. He's it, baby. After McNabb went down for the season, Garcia stepped up, played within the realms of the West Coast offense like he was long accustomed to and helped bring the Birds to the playoffs for the fifth time in six years.

Doing that made Garcia a Weird Eagles Twitter meme forever. Shamus : This ranking says more about the sorry state of Eagles signal-callers than it does Jalen Hurts, but Hurts will have the opportunity to rapidly slide up this list in If he leads the Birds to an uber-efficient rushing attack again, beefs up his passing numbers with A.

Brown in town and wins a playoff game, he should hop the previous four dudes on this list. Jimmy: Hurts ranks ahead of Garcia for me. McMahon filled in for the Birds in in the aftermath of Cunningham's season-ending injury in Week 1. His numbers were about all as good as someone could ask for a backup quarterback, but I still give him flak for not doing enough offensively to bring the iconic '91 Gang Green defense to the playoffs.

It's the Eagles though, so he's one of the dozen or so best QBs they've ever had. Photo: eagles quarterbacks over the years He had a record as a starter that season, leading the league in fourth quarter comebacks and game-winning drives. His regular season numbers were bad, but I place a high priority on postseason play when it comes to lists like this. Peete was under center for the Eagles' epic Wild Card win over the Lions that season, as he threw yards and three touchdowns with a QB rating of Nick: Yeah, this is where the QB list really hits a drop in quality.

The Eagles' best season with Snead under center was in when they finished and missed the playoffs. They were with him as the starter and with King Hill and Jack Concannon in, although they didn't play so hot either. Outside of that, sub-. The mid-'60s through the mid-'70s were pretty forgettable years in the Eagles' history.

Evan : Feeley holds a special place in Eagles history, kind of a poor man's Nick Foles before Nick Foles was out of grade school. McNabb went down with an injury in Week 11 of , and all Feeley did was step in and lead the Eagles to five wins in a row to cruise to a playoff spot. McNabb would return and the Eagles would lose their second straight NFC championship game later that winter.

He is a really nice guy. Randall Wade Cunningham Sr. He is the younger brother of former college and professional football player Sam Cunningham and the father of Randall Cunningham II and world champion high jumper Vashti Cunningham. Rodney Peete American football player. He played college football for the USC Trojans football team. He retired from playing in and is now in broadcasting.
