The Quarterback is the most valuable part to any offense. Without a good quarterback, an offense usually crumbles. Of course there are exceptions to every rule as Joe Flacco proved last season as an effective game manager, but less than stellar quarterback.
Just look at what Drew Brees did this last season. While the rest of the offense was struggling to stay healthy, Brees single-handedly kept his team in nearly every game only for the defense to blow it.
With a good quarterback under center, every team is a playoff contender. Those teams who struggle at the quarterback position like the Vikings or Titans rely heavily on their running game to carry the team, but a quarterback has more of an impact overall.
I will try to make this a series for each position, so keep checking back with me. I'll try to post the NFC as soon as possible.
