Quarterbacks Are the “Least Hardest Working Players” in NFL, Claims NBA Legend Charles Barkley in a Cold Remark on Elite QBs

NFL enthusiasts understand the importance of a quarterback in pro football. It takes a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to become an elite gunslinger. Magnificent players like Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, and Aaron Rodgers have set the bar really high. If not the best, keep the level of sustainable play during a game. But NBA Icon Charles Barkley thinks otherwise.

Every position in the NFL has equal importance during a play. But one may not deny the value of a quarterback. The position has immense importance, as he plays the call for the offensive side. Over the years, various legends have graced the position, and they cemented their legacy in the football league.

All-Rounder sports analyst and former NBA MVP Charles Barkley made an appearance on NFL’s Total Access. As he weighs in over multiple topics, he lays a mega claim on the quarterbacks. According to Barkley, there are several other football players who put in more work than any QB. Even worse, quarterbacks profit from the regulations, which makes them even less functional.

“Oh no, they have nothing to do with each other. No, no, no. The quarterbacks, they’re like pitchers. They’re the least hard-working players on the football team. You know, offensive line, defensive line, those are the guys who really work hard. But the quarterback, they’re just pretty. Josh Allen’s pretty, Pat Mahomes, Romo, they don’t get hit that often, it’s like the NBA. You can’t touch them anymore,” Charles Barkley claims.

Chuck is not one to withhold his thoughts when questioned about almost anything. And he certainly did not hold back his opinion at the expense of quarterbacks, Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, and even Tony Romo.

It does not matter if Charles Barkley has a man-crush on Tom Brady or if the NFL GOAT mesmerizes him. Both of them are great friends. But in the putting green, the competitive mode ignites. Indeed, it is cheeky but also challenging.

Chuck’s smack talk, while Brady was having trouble with his swing, was one of The Match II’s iconic scenes for spectators. But Barkley’s criticism fires up TB12 because, after hearing it, he improved. Brady nailed the shot, instantly silencing the former Phoenix Sun. Then, turning to Barkley with joy, he commanded, “take a suck on that, Chuck!” Tom totally schooled him back in style.
