The guy who calls plays and throws the ball on a football field, usually getting the most credit even though without the line in front of him he would not get so much credit.
Hey, John is talking shit to Brian because Brian isn't the quarterback, let's open up the line next play and see how good John is then.

A white person of American origin. Originally all quarterback where white, back when football originated. Doug Williams was the first black starting quarterback to win a Super Bowl in 1988, and the only one until Russell Wilson won Super Bowl XLVIII in 2014.

The Quarterback is the third episode of the fifth season of the hit show Glee. It is a tribute to the late Cory Monteith and his character, Finn Hudson. This episode will probably make you bawl your eyes out if you're really into the show.
"Omg, did you watch The Quarterback episode of Glee yet?"
"Yeah, I was upset for days after watching it"

To run around your dwelling, pretending to be the star quarterback and throwing the winning air touchdown to your star receiver (who you may sometimes also impersonate).
Announcer (usually same person): He takes the snap, fakes left, sees Davis deep over the middle.... Releases!.... TOUCHDOWN!!!

Air-Quarterback: I think I'll hold out next year for more money.

A system quarterback is one who is perceived to be successful but not extraordinarily talented. The term was originally meant to diminish the inflated statistics of players who run spread offenses.
Essentially, it meant the players had strong numbers because they ran an effective offensive "system" rather than being extraordinarily talented.
The implication is that they can win when surrounded by strong talent, but were less of a prospect at the professional level. It is becoming less of a negative tag, as more teams use offensive systems rather than relying on a star.
The opposite of a system quarterback would be a John Elway or Dan Marino who could win a game back the strength of their arm - with or without a strong system

Examples of system quarterbacks are 1989 Heisman Trophy winner Andre Ware of Houston (46 touchdowns, 4,699 yards senior year at Houston - was a pro washout); and Colt Brennan of Hawaii - drafted by the Washington Redskins.
