Brady dominated this list. In the future will we see an even distribution amongst QBs as far as Super Bowl wins, or will one or two QBs dominate the list?
The super bowl winning QBs are all older with the exception of Mahomes. A good amount of the QBs on this list won when they were young, and haven't been able to get back to win another because of their team falling apart. That goes to show you that you need to take advantage of the opportunity when it's there.
Of course Brady took advantage throughout his career--winning when he was young and old. Let's hope Burrow can have similar success.
I'd be pretty surprised to see another QB do what Brady did. Not just because Brady was amazing at the position, but it's just so hard financially for teams to put together and keep solid teams. Some of these younger QBs could go on a run, but there are already so many questions about what the Chiefs will look like next year. It's just hard to keep at the top of the mountain when you're dealing with the cap. I think the Bengals now have a good 3-4 years ahead of them, but it'll be just as hard for them to maintain as well, and I think they'll be swinging back and forth a bit once these rookie contracts are up. If everyone is playing well, they're going to want to get paid and eventually it becomes a game of trade-offs. The QB can certainly elevate the team around them to a point, but it's a tough road to win SBs without the supporting cast.
