Hypothetically - a quarterback never misses a pass. Goes 35/35 for 600 yards and 5 touchdowns each game. What would their salary look like?

Probably like 50% more than Mahomes is currently? Really though, Football's too much of a team game for it to be any more than that. The Perfect Quarterback can get the ball in the perfect place for someone to catch but they still need that person to catch it, and the worse the receivers are the less separation they're gonna have and the harder those catches are gonna be.

In reality the perfect quarterback goes 20/20 for 250 yards and 3 touchdowns each game and rushes for an extra 100 yards and 2 more touchdowns. A Lamar Jackson+ who never gets hurt? That's fucking nice. Still though, not getting paid more than what I said above just because the game falls apart if your supporting cast can't do the basics.
