3rd and Long

The most important factor in whether or not a quarterback will have success in the NFL is how they perform on 3rd and long situations.

     Football fans have many different views, and opinions regarding the specific traits that make up a great NFL (National Football League) quarterback.  Some fans believe that a great quarterback should be tall, but others would say that accuracy, a strong arm, mobility, and pocket presence are more essential skills in today's game.
     The most important factor in determining whether or not a quarterback will have success in the NFL is how they perform on 3rd and long situations.  3rd and long downs are typically passing plays, but the comfort level is different for every quarterback.  Fans of an opposing team are still nervous when quarterbacks like Tom Brady, or Aaron Rodgers have the ball in a 3rd and long situation.  If you don't feel comfortable with a quarterback in a 3rd and long situation, or you don't fear an opposing quarterback in a 3rd and long, then you know that they're incapable of achieving the ultimate goal of winning a Super Bowl.
