Sports analyst Nick Wright is a major voice of the NFL in the USA. The expert commentator is vocal about many hot topics in the league. As a result, he often encounters questions like who is the greatest in the NFL. 

Wright seems to have gotten used to the knack of delivering quick facts with firm stands on various topics that excite a fan. Among such interesting topics, one that stands quite tall is the quarterback competition between Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers. However, Wright made the distinction quite clear between Rodgers and Mahomes.
