The NFL All-Decade team debate has sparked a heated discussion among sports fans. The question on everyone’s mind is: who deserves to be the quarterback on the first team? Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, and Matthew Stafford are the top contenders.
Stats and Accolades
When looking at the stats from the 2020s, Allen has played in more games (100) than Mahomes (95), Stafford (90), and Jackson (85). He also has more regular season wins (73) than Mahomes (71), Jackson (57), and Stafford (51). Mahomes leads in passing yards (26,527) and touchdowns (191), while Jackson has the fewest interceptions (47).
In the playoffs, Mahomes has the most games (16) and passing yards (4,340), but Allen has the most rushing yards (675) and touchdowns (9). Stafford has the best interception rate (1.1%) in the playoffs.
Impact and Legacy
Allen’s impact on the game is undeniable, with 252 touchdowns and a TD-to-turnover ratio of +156. Mahomes has two Super Bowl MVPs and has played in four Super Bowls. Stafford won a Super Bowl and made it to the conference championship game once.
The debate ultimately comes down to Stafford vs Allen, with Allen winning in virtually every category. However, Stafford’s Super Bowl ring may give him an edge in the eyes of some voters.
