5 Superstar QBs who might miss the NFL playoffs ft. Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and more

We are already nearly halfway through the 2022 NFL season. Week 7 is almost in the books, and plenty of the preseason favorites have cemented themselves at the top of the tree, including the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs.

The quarterback plays of Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes are primarily responsible for this, as they've led their teams to five and four wins, respectively.

Despite this, some NFL superstar quarterbacks have so far failed to live up to expectations in 2022 and may miss the playoffs altogether.

#5 - Kyler Murray

Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals currently sit bottom of the NFC West at 3-4 after seven weeks and seem a long way off the NFL playoffs.

Through those seven weeks, Murray has passed for seven touchdowns against four interceptions in wins against the New Orleans Saints, the Carolina Panthers, and the Las Vegas Raiders.

However, the Cardinals have already lost to division rivals, the Los Angeles Rams and the Seattle Seahawks, which doesn't bode well for Arizona's playoff bid. Murray has looked sub-par thus far, but the team recently got DeAndre Hopkins back from suspension, so there's a possibility the two could still help the Cardinals into the postseason.

#4 - Matthew Stafford

Like Arizona, the Los Angeles Rams and Matthew Stafford are in real danger of missing the NFL playoffs, despite winning the Super Bowl a year ago.

The Rams currently sit 3-4 and are second in the division behind the Seahawks. Stafford has passed for just six touchdowns against eight picks. His eight interceptions are only one behind those of league leader Matt Ryan. If Stafford continues to be careless with the ball, the Rams will struggle to make the postseason.
