An NFL team doesn’t always need a franchise quarterback to compete in the post season

Playoff teams’ starting quarterbacks

Lets start with the division winners. Three winners had franchise quarterbacks. New England Patriots had Tom Brady. The Pittsburgh Steelers had Ben Roethlisberger. The New Orleans Saints had Drew Brees. The three of them are future Hall of Fame members. Kansas City Chiefs had Alex Smith. Obviously Smith had some decent seasons but his team drafted a potential replacement in the 2017 draft. The Jacksonville Jaguars had Blake Bortles. Also the Los Angeles Rams had Jared Goff an unproven newbie.
