## Resource

The NFC West Mixtape is back, and today Dan Viens and Rob “Stats” Guerrera are diving into the most important position in football from every angle. Who has the best starting quarterback in the division right now? Is it Matthew Stafford’s proven high-end play with the Rams? Brock Purdy’s efficiency and fit in San Francisco? Sam Darnold coming off a championship season in Seattle? Or does Arizona’s situation with Jacoby Brissett deserve more respect than people are giving it? But we’re not stopping at QB1. We’re also ranking the best backup quarterback situations in the NFC West. Drew Lock and Jalen Milroe in Seattle. Mac Jones and Kurtis Rourke in San Francisco. Jimmy Garoppolo and Stetson Bennett with the Rams. Gardner Minshew and Carson Beck in Arizona. Which team is best built to survive a QB injury? Which backup could actually keep a season alive? And which NFC West team has the biggest long-term question at the position? It’s a full NFC West quarterback showdown.
