Best Heisman-winning QBs in the NFL

Weinke was released by the Panthers in March and isn't in the league, as far as I know. But I'm sure he still sucks like a Hoover.

 

Now we're through this, I'd like to ask: With the number of more complex pro-style and spread passing/option offenses that are being installed in college football nowadays, and seemingly the end of the Eric Crouch's of this world, are there going to be more Heisman-winning QB's who are going to go on to have strong pro careers?

Or is there still going to be a drop-off from those who can excel in college, and just not make the jump?

 

Like Carr and Harrington. Then again, it makes you wonder if these guys could have been good if they hadn't spent their first three years on their backs all the time, behind crappy o-lines. Now they're just gun shy.

 

One of the fun things I saw on the list I pulled up was a few of the older runners-up: John Hicks, Tom Brown and Kurt Burris.

All offensive linemen. Hicks, the last one, was in 1973.

 

And the last QB to win a Super Bowl was Plunkett, Class of '70.

 

i still think harrington could be a good QB, but i think i'm the only one.

 

You may be a dreamer, but you're not the only one.

 

wrong tom ... you're looking for tommy dreamer. remember, i'm the asshole.

 

Eh, I was trying something clever there. Didn't work.

 

come on, GB, i was kidding.

it was great; it really was.

 

Now you're just trying to make me feel better.

Asshole
