Throughout the 2022 regular season, several quarterbacks put on impressive performances, leading their teams to victory with their touchdown passes and skilled runs into the end zone.
The 2022-2023 season has come to an end with an exciting Super Bowl matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. After a tight and high-scoring game, the Chiefs emerged victorious with a 38-35 win.
Here is a list of the top 10 quarterbacks with the most regular season touchdowns for the 2022-2023 season.
#10 Tom Brady, 26 touchdowns
In his final NFL season, Tom Brady finished 2022 as the quarterback with the 10th most touchdowns, scoring a total of 26 touchdowns.
Of those, 25 were passes to the endzone, and also managed to score one rushing touchdown. Over the course of the season, Brady threw for an impressive 4,694 yards and led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the division title in the NFC South.
While Brady and the Buccaneers had an impressive regular season, their journey came to a disappointing end when they lost to the Dallas Cowboys in the wildcard round of the playoffs.
#9 Aaron Rodgers, 27
In the 2022 regular season, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers did not perform up to his usual high standards. Despite this, he still managed to score a total of 27 touchdowns, with 26 being passing and 1 rushing.
However, Rodgers' future has been the subject of media speculation for much of the post-season, leaving fans and analysts wondering where he will play next season. Regardless of where he ends up, there is no denying that Rodgers is one of the most talented quarterbacks in the league.
#8 Jared Goff, 29
Jared Goff, the quarterback for the Detroit Lions, had an impressive 2022 regular season. However, he narrowly missed out on a spot in the playoffs on the final day. Throughout the season, Goff scored an impressive 29 passing touchdowns.
Goff's performance in the second half of the season was particularly noteworthy, as he scored 15 TDs and had zero interceptions. In fact, he ranked first in TD-INT ratio from weeks 10-18, showcasing his skill and accuracy on the field.
#7 Trevor Lawrence, 30
Trevor Lawrence, nicknamed "The Prince," demonstrated significant improvement in his sophomore season with an impressive performance that led the Jacksonville Jaguars to the divisional round of the playoffs.
Over the course of the 2022 season, Lawrence scored a total of 30 touchdowns, with 25 passing and 5 rushing.
Despite facing a challenging start to his NFL career, Lawrence's talent and potential cannot be overlooked. With the guidance of head coach Doug Pederson, Lawrence is projected to have an even better season in 2023 and beyond.
Tied #5 Kirk Cousins, 31
Kirk Cousins had an outstanding regular season as the quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings, culminating in a 13-4 winning record in 2022. Impressively, Cousins tallied a total of 31 touchdowns - 29 of which were passing touchdowns, with an additional 2 scored by rushing.
A key factor contributing to his success was the strong supporting cast in the offense, which included standout players such as Justin Jefferson. Cousins' impressive performance highlights not only his own skills and talent but also the importance of a well-rounded team effort.
Tied #5 Geno Smith, 31
Geno Smith, in his tenth year in the NFL, had the best season of his career to date. After serving as a backup to Russell Wilson for the past three seasons, he finally had his opportunity to lead the Seattle Seahawks as their starting quarterback.
Impressively, he led the league in pass completion percentage with an impressive 69.8%. He finished the 2022 regular season with 30 passing and 1 rushing touchdown, placing him fifth among quarterbacks for the most touchdowns.
#4 Jalen Hurts, 35
Jalen Hurts had a truly outstanding season, performing at an MVP-caliber level throughout. In the 2022 regular season, he achieved the best record as a starting quarterback, leading the Eagles to an impressive 14-1 record in games started.
Furthermore, Hurts led the Eagles to the Super Bowl, where they narrowly lost to the Chiefs by a score of 38-35. Despite the loss, Hurts set a Super Bowl record for his impressive stats as a losing quarterback.
Over the course of the regular season, Hurts tallied a remarkable 35 touchdowns, including 22 passing and 13 rushing.
#3 Joe Burrow, 40
Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals came tantalizingly close to replicating their Super Bowl run from the previous season. However, they fell just one game short when they lost to the eventual Super Bowl champions, the Chiefs.
Burrow's outstanding performances throughout the season have been a major factor in the team's success. He has cemented his status as one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL.
Burrow's regular-season performance was particularly impressive, with a whopping 35 passing touchdowns supplemented by 5 rushing to the endzone for a total of 40.
#2 Josh Allen, 42
The 2022 pre-season designated MVP, Josh Allen, had an outstanding season, notching an impressive 42 total touchdowns, including 35 passing and 7 rushing.
Despite his remarkable performance, however, Allen and the Buffalo Bills were unable to improve upon their 2021 postseason record, losing to the Bengals in the divisional round of the 2022 season.
Although Allen received just one first-place vote in the MVP race, he has established himself as one of the league's top quarterbacks. The 26-year-old will no doubt be a strong contender for the award in future seasons.
#1 Patrick Mahomes, 45
Patrick Mahomes, the talented quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, had an imperious 2022 regular season. He threw a league-leading 41 passing touchdowns and added 4 more rushes to the endzone for a total of 45, which was the most in the league.
This achievement is even more impressive when considering the loss of one of the league's best receivers, Tyreek Hill. Mahomes' performance was undoubtedly a major factor in him winning the league MVP award.
Furthermore, Mahomes' leadership and skill helped the Chiefs secure the Super Bowl championship, where he received the Super Bowl MVP award despite battling an ankle injury. This speaks volumes about Mahomes' resilience, determination and exceptional talent.
