(This post was last modified: 03-17-2020, 06:28 PM by JagFanatic24.)

A couple of guys have sent me messages saying they are enjoying the lists so here’s another one I thought would be fun.

The best to worst starting Jaguars QBs

1. Brunell - 63 wins 4 straight playoffs, 2 Divisional Titles, 2 AFC Championship Games, apart of the best offensive play in franchise history “Fade to Glory.” Averaged 7.1 yards per attempt. Had a .538 win percentage and a 60.4 compl percentage. All Pro in 1996. Led the league in passing in 1996. 2 time MVP of the Pro Bowl.

2. Bortles - 24 wins. 1 Divisional Title, 1 playoff appearance, most TD passes in a season, and most passing yards in a season. 

3. Garrard - 37 wins. 1 playoff appearance, highest QB rating in a season. Only threw 3 ints one year. Had a huge 31 yard run that set up a game winning kick by Scobee to beat PIT @ Pit. Also made the Pro Bowl when 9 other people said they didn’t wanna play.

4. Leftwich - 24 wins. 1 playoff appearance @NE. Had a .545 win percentage. 58.7 compl percentage. 

5. Minshew - 6 wins as a rookie, which is 5th all time as a Jag QB, with 3 come from behind wins. 2nd highest Passing TDs in a season with 21 even though he missed 4 games. 8th all time with 60.6 compl percentage. Also ranks 5th all time with 7.0 ypa. Ranks 5th all time in 4th quarter comebacks. Ranks 1st in int% with 1.3 with a win percentage of .500 and is 2nd in team history in qb rating with 91.2 (Martin is 1st with 101.5)

6. Henne only posted 5 wins but has 27 passing TDs which ranks 5th all time in team history. 

7. Gabbert was .185 as a Starter and threw just 22 TDs. His 4,357 yards ranks 6th all time. 

8. Gray - 12 TDs, 1,252 yards with a 85.8 rating which ranks 4th all time. Gray was .500 as the starter. Infamously wore a tinted visor during a night game and threw a pick and then removed it.

9. Beuerlin - was .166 as a starter, he threw for 952 yards and threw 4TDs and was benched by Coughlin and replaced by Brunell. Statistically he ranks as one of the worst QBs in team history with only 1 win in 5 starts.

10. Quinn 748 passing yards with 3 TDs. He was 1-3 as a starter. 

11. Johnson - Was Part of the greatest trade in team history when Buffalo gave us the 9th overall pick in 1998 that we used to draft Taylor. He had the highest compl percentage in team history with 71.4 , he also has the highest ypa of 10.5 his only win was against the Ravens and he sprained his ankle and was carted off the field in 1997, but came back to finish the game with 368 yards and 3 TDs. He also technically has the highest win percentage of 1.000 along with Steve Matthews who beat the Giants that same year.

12. Matthews - was 0-0-0 as a starter in 1997 vs the Giants. Brunell was injured in the preseason game vs the Giants and Matthews was the only other left-handed QB to ever play for the Jaguars. He went 1-0 in his only start and never threw a TD. He had 252 yards passing. But helped Jacksonville stay in the playoff hunt.

13. Martin - this might surprise some of you but statistically he was one of the best in team history. He passed for 662 yards which is 13th all time and 4TDs which is 9th all time. He went 0-1 in his only start but has the 2nd best ypa with 8.5 , he owns the highest compl percentage in team history with 101.5 with 4TDs in his only game.

14. McCown - has a 53.3 compl percentage which ranks dead last. He threw for 418 yards and never threw a TD as a Jaguar. But he did win a game. He went 1-1. McCown had the worst QB rating in team history with 47.9 but he ranks 15th in passing yards.

15. Kessler - He won 2 games and lost 2 games. He threw 2 TDs for 709 yards which ranks 12th.

16. Fiedler - 656 yards and 2 TDs. He also went 1-0 in his only start. Most notable game was 1999 home playoff destruction game vs Miami. Oddly he became Miami’s QB for the next few seasons. 

17. Bouman - Called him while he was on a tractor and he came in and threw for 222 yards and 2 TDs and went 0-1.

18. Edwards - Came from Buffalo that season and was the backup. He started 1 game and lost. Threw for 280 yards and 1 TD. Most known for the “hey there Trent Edwards” song on YouTube.

And the worst QB ever.....yep you guessed it.

19. Foles - $88 million contract. He has the worst win percentage in team history with .000 he went 0-4 and threw just 3 TDs. Only 4 Jaguar starting QBs have ever not won a game and Foles was one of them. Edwards, Martin, Bouman, and Foles. He ranks 11th all time with 736 yards passing. He does own the 2nd highest compl percentage with 65.8


Cleo Lemon went 0-2 in cleanup duty but I didn’t bother to rank him because he never started a game.

Corrected with McCown added.
