EPISODE SUMMARY

This week I spoke with Michael Mertes about a project he started to celebrate the NFL's 100th season, called "The Quarterback Project." He started the project to find a way to determine who the greatest quarterbacks were of all time in the NFL. To do this, Michael created a formula to assign a score.

This score helped him rank the quarterbacks, something he's releasing on his site, with the top quarterback being released on the opening night of the 2022 season. We get into many topics during the interview, including:

The origin story of The Quarterback Project
How he calculated the index score for all of the quarterbacks
How the score accounts for quarterbacks in different eras
Some quarterbacks ranked higher on the list than he expected
Some quarterbacks he thought for sure would have been on the list, but the score didn't dictate it
We take the DeLorean back to some great QB duels in history
His plans for the future
Much more....

THE FOOTBALL HISTORY DUDE BACKGROUND

The Football History Dude is a show dedicated to teaching NFL fans about the rich history of the game we all know and love. I’m your host, Arnie Chapman, and I’m just a regular dude that loves football and is a nerd when it comes to learning about history. I created this show to share the gridiron knowledge nuggets I gain from researching various topics about the history of the National Football League. Each episode I welcome you to climb aboard my DeLorean to travel back in time to explore the yesteryear of the gridiron, and yes, that’s a reference to the Back to the Future Movies.
