Lamar Jackson<\/a> may have an MVP award under his belt, but does that make him the best of the best among Baltimore Ravens<\/a> quarterbacks<\/a>? How do the rest of the notable names throughout franchise history stack up? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ravens began their portion of NFL<\/a> history in 1996 with a 33-year-old version of Vinny Testaverde under center for a 19-14 victory over the Oakland Raiders, and they've since added 25 more qualified quarterbacks to the mix. Those men have earned just four Pro Bowl selections, and Jackson himself has accounted for a pair of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps the dual-threat signal-caller can continue to rack up accolades and reestablish himself as an unabashedly elite option. But given the contractual uncertainty that threatened the player-franchise relationship<\/a> and the organization's lackluster history at the most important position in the sport, tempered optimism is probably better than unfettered confidence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the Total Yards Added (TYA) metric I developed for QB Math<\/a>, which evaluates quarterbacks' success relative to league average in four facets of the game \u2014 rushing, passing, sack avoidance, and fumble avoidance \u2014\u00a0we're highlighting each and every one of the 26 Baltimore Ravens quarterbacks with at least one qualified game for the organization since '96. These rankings will be updated continuously and are accurate heading into Week 5 of the 2023 NFL season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind that this is about career production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Playing in more games usually means moving further away from the league-average score of zero, which is why Joe Flacco, who enjoyed plenty of success in Baltimore but wasn't often more than a slightly below-average game-manager, falls all the way to the bottom of the pack despite having a far superior per-game output to other low finishers such as Kyle Boller and Tyler Huntley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
