EspañolBleacher Report’s NFL staff released its “B/R 99” ranking of the top 99 quarterbacks in league history on Feb. 17, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were well represented.
According to the panel, which evaluated peak performance, longevity, accolades, postseason success, and overall impact on the game, six former Buccaneers signal-callers made the all-time list.
| Player | B/R Ranking | Buccaneers Tenure | Notable Buccaneers Achievement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tom Brady | No. 1 | 2020–2022 | Super Bowl LV Champion |
| Steve Young | No. 9 | 1985–1986 | Former No. 1 overall supplemental pick |
| Jeff Garcia | No. 74 | 2007–2008 | Led Bucs to 2007 playoff berth |
| Doug Williams | No. 84 | 1978–1982 | First Black QB to start a Super Bowl (career began in Tampa) |
| Brad Johnson | No. 85 | 2001–2004 | Led Bucs to Super Bowl XXXVII title |
| Vinny Testaverde | No. 73 | 1987–1992 | Former No. 1 overall pick |
Headlining the group is Tom Brady, who earned the No. 1 overall spot. Brady’s résumé speaks for itself: seven Super Bowl titles, five Super Bowl MVPs, and virtually every meaningful passing record. His three seasons in Tampa Bay included a Super Bowl LV victory and further cemented his legacy as the most accomplished quarterback in NFL history.
Hall of Famer Steve Young also appeared on the list. While most of his success came in San Francisco, Young began his NFL career in Tampa Bay after being selected in the 1984 supplemental draft.
Super Bowl champion Doug Williams, who started his career with the Buccaneers, was included for both his historical impact and postseason heroics. Brad Johnson, who led Tampa Bay to its first Lombardi Trophy, also earned recognition.
Jeff Garcia, remembered for guiding the Bucs back to the playoffs in 2007, and longtime veteran Vinny Testaverde rounded out the group.
For a franchise often defined by defensive eras, Tampa Bay’s quarterback history still left a noticeable mark on the NFL’s all-time conversation.
