5 QBs who could lead the league in passing TDs during the 2022 NFL season
#3 - Justin Herbert, Los Angeles Chargers


Justin Herbert had an incredible rookie year during the 2020 season, including throwing 31 touchdown passes. He elevated his production even further during the 2021 season while recording 38 passing touchdowns. He also eclipsed 5,000 passing yards last year, becoming only the ninth player ever to do so in a single season.

Herbert appears to be on a rapid upward trajectory moving forward as one of the best young quarterbacks in the game. He looks to be in line for another big year in 2022, especially since he is returning almost all of his offensive weapons once again.
#2 - Tom Brady, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tom Brady was statistically the most productive quarterback during the 2021 NFL season, leading the league in both passing yards and touchdowns. He threw an incredible 43 touchdown passes, the second most in any season of his entire legendary career, while also leading the league in touchdowns for the fifth time.
Brady will be 45 years old during the 2022 NFL season. This could be a legitimate reason for any other player's production to predictably begin to severely decline, but age is apparently irrelevant for Brady. He's playing as good right now as he ever has during his more than two decades of career.
#1 - Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams

Matthew Stafford tied his career-best by completing 41 touchdown passes during the 2021 NFL season, making him one of just two players to exceed 40 passing touchdowns. It was part of an amazing season in his first year with his new team, which also included winning a Super Bowl ring.
Stafford has a legitimate chance to increase production in his second season in the new offensive system with head coach Sean McVay. The Los Angeles Rams also added Allen Robinson II during the free agency period, giving them another offensive weapon to work with.
