It does make you wonder why more QBs don’t willingly cap their top-end contracts to allow for a better team to be built around them. I’d have to imagine Hurts, Burrow, or Jackson would be perfectly happy and financially secure forever with a 5-year/$100MM fully guaranteed contract and this would increase their chances of competing for more super bowls.

I'd assume their utility is much more heavily motivated by making money / competitively being paid like the best than it is winning. Sad!
