Watch: Lions, Packers, Bears and Vikings reporters battle over the NFC North’s best quarterback
Detroit Lions fans, this one got heated. We put Lions, Packers, Bears and Vikings reporters together to debate the NFC North’s best quarterback, and things escalated fast. Watch the full debate and decide who got it right.
NFC North quarterback debate is alive and well, and it went exactly the way you’d expect when A to Z Sports’ beat writers from all four teams got together to hash it out.
The panel featured Lions beat writer Mike Payton, Packers beat writer Wendell Ferreira, Chicago Bears beat writer Kole Noble, and Minnesota Vikings beat writer Tyler Forness, each making the case for players from their respective teams. The discussion covered advanced analytics, film study, supporting cast, arm talent, pressure numbers, playoff performances, and whether certain quarterbacks get far too much credit or not nearly enough.
There were plenty of moments where nobody in the room agreed. There were also more than a few points of consensus that probably won’t sit well with fans around the division. That’s what makes these conversations worth having. When you put four writers who watch these teams every single day in a room and force them to pick one guy, things get heated.

The full discussion is worth watching if you want to hear the detailed arguments for each side. The panel went deep on the film, the numbers, and the context surrounding each quarterback’s production. You can check out the complete breakdown in the video below.
This is the first position in what will be an ongoing series as the A to Z Sports NFC North crew builds out the full all-division roster. If the quarterback generated this much disagreement, the conversations at other positions should be just as good. Let us know who you think deserves the spot.
