The closest thing the NFL has to baseball’s Triple Crown is the receiving triple crown (leading in catches, rec yds, and rec TDs). Wide receiver seems to be the only position which we have an official agreed upon Triple Crown criteria. I wanted to see which quarterbacks have won a Triple Crown, so I settled on what I think are the three most known stats: passing yards, passing touchdowns, and passer rating. It’s arbitrary, and I did find an article that used completion percentage instead of passer rating. But this is what I settled on.

I think it’s important to look at this pre-merger and post-merger. Before the merger, quarterbacks only had to compete against an average of 9 other quarterbacks to lead the league in a stat because of the small number of teams. Only four QBs have won the Triple Crown after the merger. The last to do it was Tom Brady in 2007. Also, if you told me only four QBs won the Triple Crown post-merger, and one of them was a 49er, my guess on which 49er would not have been John Brodie.

Here is the list!
