Quarterback

I know close to nothing about the NFL but I still very much enjoyed this series. I don't know the rules, terms or anything. I don't even know how the scoring system works.

It's a very good insight into the life of a worldclass athlete in a sport I know little about. Not only have I learned more about NFL but also the mind of different athletes.

I understand if some people would like an introduction to the rules but that would put off actual football fans. You don't have to know the rules, because the music and narration will tell you when they do good/bad. It's more about the players' psyches rather than the sport itself.

Very well made series in all aspects. If you are a fan of sports you will enjoy this. Netflix has been doing a great job with their sportdocs recently.

This documentary follows the life's and careers of 3 quarterbacks through a season into post season. Im English and do not follow American football, however love watching documentaries about them. The amount of clutch plays are incredible. I found all 3 players and their stories fascinating in particular Mahones & Cousins.

Some reviews have an issue around players wife's/ family's getting so much air time... but these are the people that mould and guide these special talents off the pitch and are as much of the their story as anyone else.

Whilst the star on the pitch is certainly Mahones... the star of the show is Cousins. The man is everything you'd want in a college, friend and family member. A true gentleman and an athlete striving as much to be a top level competitor as he is to be a great person.

As for Mahones... just wow. You want to know what a warrior and a competitor looks like, well look no further. He also seemed like a great guy very focused on his family too.

Honestly one of the best documentaries I've watched in a long time. I am a fan of the All Or Nothing series - but every single one finishes in failure. The fact this ends in success for one of the athletes makes it all the more special.

Well done Netflix, you can't make movies. But you set the bar for sports documentaries.

Great series about the 3 QBs. This series made me love Cousins even more, and he seems like an amazing guy (this is coming from a non-Vikings fan). Mariota's story is also interesting, especially learning about why he chose to separate from the Falcons after the QB change.

My biggest gripe with this series is the amount of screentime Brittany Maholmes gets. She's not a QB, so why do they focus on her and her commentary so much? She's annoying! It's as if she's talking even more because she knows she's being filmed. They don't give the other wives as much screentime, and it's great to get their take and perspective into their lives, but it's not overboard like Brittany.

As an advid sports fan, being able to watch this show felt like heaven.

Executive producer Peyton Manning does an amazing job showing the world of being a quarterback in multiple different ways.

He shows the triumph of being a winning, successful player in Patrick Mahomes, the underdog story of Kirk Cousins, and the hard fought journey to work back to stardom with Marcus Mariota.

The only con I have for the show is how it neglectfully presents Mariota compared to the other stars of the docu series. Watching the Mariota parts made me feel like he is a bad quarterback not fit for the job.

Overall, Quarterback is a compelling tale adding to the already known 2022-2023 NFL season.

Football fans will love the look behind the curtain into the personal life of the most important position in sports. Non-football fans will love the look at the lives of the rich and famous.

It was interesting watching the greatest QB in the game today go about his daily business. Patrick Mahomes is not only a great human being but maybe the best teammate in NFL history. He wills his team to win.

Mahomes is the star of this production. I'd say he gets 50% of the show with Cousins about 33.3% with Mariota about 16.7%.

I thought there might be more of Andy Reid but it's not called Head Coach, so I get it. Might be an idea to do this on 3 different head coaches? Just an idea.

Unheralded star of the show: Julie Cousins - she was fantastic

10/10 - MUST SEE for all football fans.
