Ryan’s first season in Indianapolis likely confirmed that he’s moved to the twilight of his career, Six years removed from winning the NFL MVP award and nearly winning the Super Bowl, Ryan put up his worst numbers in over a decade. Heinicke failed to make the top-23 in completion percentage and yards per game. Heinicke also posted a sub-90.0 passer rating in his second straight year as the starter for most of Washington’s games. The Commanders went 5-3-1 in Heinicke’s nine starts. When Commanders coach Ron Rivera sent Heinicke back to the bench at the end of the season, it was a mistake that might’ve cost Washington a playoff berth. The former XFL star was more than an adequate replacement for an injured Carson Wentz, keeping the gig for some time once Wentz was healthy enough to play. Heinicke might be the best of the NFL’s bad starting quarterbacks. His 6.2 yards per attempt and 76.7 passer rating both ranked second-to-last. Pickett had seven passing touchdowns and nine interceptions. Pittsburgh’s defense, however, was largely responsible for its victories. Those comeback wins allowed the Steelers to avoid a losing record for yet another year. Pickett went 7-5 as a starter, making big throws on Christmas Day against the Raiders and on New Year’s Day against the Ravens. Will he ever be one of the NFL’s best quarterbacks? Probably not. The only quarterback who was selected in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft showed plenty of promise. The Panthers don’t have their quarterback of the future on their roster. Darnold averaged 190.5 passing yards per game and completed fewer than 60% of his passes for the third straight season. 3 overall pick has a 21-34 career record and a 78.2 passer rating.ĭarnold’s 92.6 passer rating in 2022 was a career-best, though he put up pedestrian numbers in six starts. It’s unlikely that Darnold will be anything more than a borderline NFL starter. The reality of Darnold’s potential, or lack thereof, set in long ago. Don’t expect him to be a starter in 2023. Mariota can make some plays with his legs, but he only ran for more than 50 yards twice with Atlanta. The quarterback completed 61.3% of his passes for 170.7 yards per game, both of which ranked 28th or lower for the 2022 season. Mariota can only take a team so far with his limited ability as a passer. It looked like the veteran might lead Atlanta on a surprising run to the playoffs until he lost four of his last five starts and an injury ended his season. The Falcons gave Mariota his first chance in three years to be a starting quarterback. Mills could have more success with a roster that is trying to compete for a playoff spot, but he’s unlikely to ever start for a team that’s a threat to make any kind of a postseason run. The Texans will take a quarterback at the top of the 2023 NFL Draft. Mills’ passer rating fell from 88.8 in 2021 to 78.8 in 2022, and his 66.8% completion rate fell by nearly six points.Īfter going 5-19-1 in his first two seasons, Mills’ days as a starting quarterback could be numbered. Mills tied for the league-high with 15 interceptions and didn’t progress after an encouraging rookie season. It doesn’t say much about Mills’ 2022 campaign that he was briefly benched in favor of Kyle Allen. In 22 career games, Wilson is averaging 182.8 passing yards with 15 touchdowns and 18 interceptions. Wilson has played so poorly that the Jets seem more than ready to move on from him just two years after drafting the quarterback second overall. The Jets’ offense looked significantly better when Mike White was at the helm. Wilson’s 72.8 passer rating and 54.5% completion rate ranked dead last among all starters. The second-year player was benched on multiple occasions, culminating with an embarrassing 92-yard performance against the Jaguars on “Thursday Night Football” for the entire nation to see.
No quarterback had a more tumultuous 2022 campaign than Wilson.
