I know, I know, we\u2019re a Chicago Bears site, so most of us are going to pick our guy, but I wanted to spotlight the results of this week\u2019s SB Nation Reacts survey about the 2024 quarterbacks.<\/p>\n

Before we get into the results, a reminder that if you haven\u2019t signed up to get the weekly emailed survey questions, you can do that right here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhich quarterback from the 2024 NFL Draft would you rather have going forward?\u201d was one of several questions that went out to a national audience, and I\u2019m not surprised that Drake Maye led the vote with 47%.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After all, Maye is the only one in the class to make the Pro Bowl this season, he was named second-team All-Pro, and he\u2019s a finalist for the AP Most Valuable Player Award. He helped the New England Patriots to a (14-3) record and will play later today for a chance at the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n

Caleb Williams was second in the voting after his electric 2025 season. He threw for the most yards in franchise history and helped the Bears get to 11 wins, earn their first NFC North title since 2018, and their first playoff win in 15 years.<\/p>\n

Bo Nix should have been playing against the Patriots in the AFC Championship game, but a fractured ankle has him sidelined. Nix led the league in passing attempts, and he led the Denver Broncos to the AFC\u2019s top seed.<\/p>\n

Jayden Daniels had an injury-plagued sophomore season after leading the Washington Commanders to the NFC Championship game as a rookie while winning Rookie of the Year. Of the four, Daniels is the only one who will be learning a new offense in 2026.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what SB Nation wrote about their poll question.<\/p>\n

To be fair, it\u2019s not a guarantee as to which of these quarterbacks will finish their careers as the best. Nix is the only one to start a playoff game in both of his two seasons. Daniels earned Rookie of the Year and had the Commanders positioned as a team to contend with for years to come. Williams came on like a freight train late this season, emerging as one of the most clutch quarterbacks in the entire league.<\/p>\n

The 47% will get no argument from me. Maye was awesome this season and is sure to be one of the faces of the League moving forward.<\/p>\n

But I voted for Caleb.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s just scratching the surface of his potential, and if he attacks the offseason like he did last year, he\u2019s going to clean up some of the accuracy issues that crept up in 2025.<\/p>\n

I think all four will continue to play good football if they stay healthy, but give me Williams and his clutch gene, because as we\u2019ve learned, it\u2019s usually a good idea to bet on Caleb to come back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I know, I know, we\u2019re a Chicago Bears site, so most of us are going to pick our…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":704343,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[925,1036,391,258,833,7,734,249,6,15,6718,51133,102487,111],"class_list":["post-704342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl-draft","tag-bo-nix","tag-caleb-williams","tag-chicago-bears","tag-denver-broncos","tag-drake-maye","tag-football","tag-jayden-daniels","tag-new-england-patriots","tag-nfl","tag-nfl-draft","tag-quarterbacks","tag-sb-nation","tag-survey-questions","tag-washington-commanders"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115956820329494682","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/704342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=704342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/704342\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/704343"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=704342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=704342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=704342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
