Joe Flacco
And Troy Aikman. The point is there’s been very few.
Joe Flacco
I believe Aaron Rodgers was on his rookie deal when he won. But I stand to be corrected on that one
Ben RothlisbergerYou couldn’t be more wrong! Patrick Mahomes is the only QB I can come up with that won a SB on his rookie deal. QB salaries keep going up you’re not going to win a championship these days with a low paid QB or low paid players at other key positions. If you have any postseason success with these players they’re going to want to be paid. Tennessee was having some postseason success with AJ Brown and he wanted to be paid.

I'll stop now
Oh yeah! SorryYou should because you’re having to go back to decades. lol The point is it’s rare!
Oh yeah! Sorry
Kurt Warner
OK. I'm done!
Yes. This is what you get with the salary cap. It's going to be really hard for teams to win super bowls paying a QB 50M a year and a WR 30M a year. It will continue to be teams with QBs on rookie or low paid deals that win SBs. Do you think Tom Brady doesn't know that? His cap hit for this upcoming season is 11.8M.
If CeeDee Lamb plays well this season he needs to be traded for a 1st rounder. The Cowboys don't have the QB, nor do they have the team talent to overcomes ridiculous cap hits from 2 players who aren't even elite status.

The last two times the #Eagles signed/traded for a legit Pro-Bowl WR:
2004: Terrell Owens (Made Super Bowl)
2017: Alshon Jeffery (Won Super Bowl)
A.J. Brown was in the Pro Bowl in 2020
Guess it is a passing league after all........while some of our members here want to win with the running game?
I wonder why????
You made a good case for your opinion sir.Wide Receivers are becoming like RB's: tons of them come out every year and you can get good ones in the 3rd and 4th round. And unlike 10 years ago, they produce right away, like RB's.
The Packers and Chiefs have figured this out, which is why they got rid of Adams and Hill. It will be interesting to see if the Eagles will come to regret paying Brown.
Unless you get a guy like Chase, I would not be signing WR's to massive deals. That includes Cee Dee Lamb.
Just my opinion

But according to some on here, Dallas would not be able to afford big deals because of Dak's contract.
But for other teams, it is because they figured out they don't need too, they can replace them in the draft.
So the same holds true for GB & KC as well. Their QB's got huge contracts, therefore can't afford the player around them.
Dallas dumps Cooper and his contract, sign Gallop for less, draft Tolbert, but yet some on here do not like that, some do.
I do agree, don't give out the huge contracts. Maybe they learned with Zeke, but Dak's it was the going QB rate, though it doesn't make it right.
Just forgot Ben Rothlisberger.So far we have Tom Brady, Eli Manning, Kurt Warner, Joe Montana, Troy Aikman, Joe Flacco, Russell Wilson and Patrick Mahomes that won Super Bowls on their rookie deal. Anyone who plans on moving on from a young QB after their rookie deal because they haven’t won a Super Bowl is not likely to ever win a SB unless they like working with Powerball odds.
