Who is the QB you think will have a 2025 Daniel Jones-type start of the season? 👇 https://t.co/mhYBYsLNcM Via @gmfb on X

What happened: NFL Network's @gmfb posed an offseason discussion question to fans: which quarterback will deliver a strong start to the season reminiscent of Daniel Jones' 2025 campaign. The prompt drew replies floating candidates like J.J. McCarthy, Kyler Murray and Tyler Shough as potential breakout or bounce-back passers.

Why it matters: Jones' 2025 production reset expectations for what a reclamation-arc quarterback can do, making him the new shorthand for a surprise early-season surge. With the 2026 season still in the offseason, these debates shape narratives around which QBs carry the most upside heading into training camp.

By the numbers: Per figures circulating in the thread, Daniel Jones posted a 2025 line of 13 games, 68 percent completions, 3,101 passing yards, 24 total touchdowns and eight interceptions — the benchmark the question references.

What to watch: Watch which names gain traction as offseason programs progress and camp battles clarify starting roles ahead of the 2026 season.
