About QB City
A love letter to Shreveport's quarterback tradition, in the colors of the city flag.
What is Quarterback City?
Quarterback City celebrates one of the most remarkable quarterback pipelines in American football. Shreveport, Louisiana, on the Red River, is the birthplace and high school home of three Super Bowl starting quarterbacks: Terry Bradshaw, David Woodley and Stan Humphries. Its high schools have sent many more quarterbacks on to major college football and the NFL.
Every stat on this site is sourced. Super Bowl counts are by birthplace, through Super Bowl LX (February 2026), using each player's Wikipedia and Pro-Football-Reference profile — see how we count Super Bowl quarterbacks by city.

Editorial standards
We publish only facts we can source to Wikipedia, Pro-Football-Reference, the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame, the City of Shreveport or named local press, and we link those sources on each page. When sources disagree — for example, Jim Kelly's birthplace — we say so and use the more cautious wording. Stats are current through Super Bowl LX (February 2026) and are reviewed after every Super Bowl. Quarterback City is not affiliated with, sponsored or endorsed by the NFL, any team, school, the players named or the City of Shreveport; league and team names are used only to identify players and games, and no league or team logos are used in our own design or photos (logos inside embedded videos belong to the credited channels).

Our colors
Flying the city flag
Shreveport's city flag is a vertical tribar — deep French blue at the hoist, white in the center, gold at the fly. It was chosen in a 1934 public design contest ahead of the city's 1935 centennial; the winner was local artist and World War I veteran Stewart G. Davis, who called it “the best piece of work I've ever done.”
The shield at its center carries 18 gold stars on blue (Louisiana was the 18th state), a red diagonal band with three magnolia blossoms (the state flower, one for each part of the Ark-La-Tex), and 14 blue cones — Shreve ermine — borrowed from the Shreve family coat of arms. A pelican sits on top, a wreath of cotton leaves below, and a ribbon reads “City of Shreveport 1835.”
This site takes its colors straight from that flag: French blue, white and gold, with the shield's red and green as accents.
