If there is anyone who can speak openly and without hesitation about the quarterback position in the NFL, it is Tom Brady. With all the achievements earned during his years in the league and the titles that came with them, he remains one of the most qualified voices to do so. This time, he spoke out because he believes the quality of young quarterbacks entering from college football has declined significantly.

Brady appeared on a podcast hosted by Ary & Ben called RUSHMOREonX, where he was joined by fellow multiple-time champion and Hall of Famer Peyton Manning.

A revealing conversation between Brady and Manning on why QB quality has dropped

On the podcast, both Tom Brady and Peyton Manning agreed that the caliber of quarterbacks entering the NFL has decreased over the years.

Brady attributes the issue to the current NIL rules and the college transfer portal, which, in his view, have created a system that allows players to switch schools too easily.

I actually don’t think the quarterback plays as good as it used to be,” Brady said (Timestamp – 5:05). “Certainly, understanding defenses, understanding past concepts, being in a huddle, taking snap counts. I used to walk into the meeting rooms on a Tuesday of 50 plays that I wanted in the game plan.

Brady continued:

I’d be hard pressed to think there’s any quarterbacks that go in there, maybe one or two that go in there with actual plays of what they wanted with. … I think the lack of development in college football, I don’t think there are college programs anymore.

I think there’s just college teams, and I think the NFL is getting less and less developed. Well, yeah, I mean, I think jumping from team to team, the portal stuff, I don’t think you’re learning a lot of really tangible values that are going to sustain themselves over time.

Times have changed, yet some of the practices of the past carried more weight and durability. For example, Brady was famously selected 199th overall in the 2000 NFL Draft, from where he began forging a unique legacy in professional football.

Craig Carton slams Brady over conflict of interest

The ongoing debate surrounding Tom Brady and his alleged conflict of interest between being a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders while serving as a broadcaster continues to generate discussion. Although the NFL has already stated there is no conflict, dissenting voices persist.

Among the critics is radio host Craig Carton, who remarked:

That’s rich for a man who deflated footballs before a playoff game, what happened to the moral and ethical duty to play the game with the same tools that everyone else is forced to play with. It is a moral and ethical responsibility. He was also part of the largest single cheating scandal in the history of the NFL …

Carton added:

He’s the same guy who also destroyed a cell-phone in front of investigators who are researching how much dirt he had, or information, I should say, he had on other teams, game plans. You had no morals. You had no ethics when it came to getting an advantage or an edge over an opponent.

This issue seems far from resolved, even with the league’s prior ruling.
