FanFic/NFLQuarterbacksOnFacebook is a weekly feature on ProFootballMock.com which parodizes all 32 NFL quarterbacks in fictional interactions on Facebook after the NFL season and notable events in the NFL offseason.

Started in Week 4 of the 2012 season, the conversations usually dealt with the quarterbacks mocking each other over their accomplishments or lack thereof. As the season progressed, each quarterback developed a sort of personality which contributed to the conversation. The conversations expanded to include non-quarterbacks, like head coaches, teammates, Roger Goodell, and other characters, some of whom would contribute to more than one conversation.

!!NFLQuarterbacksOnFacebook contains examples of:

* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Everyone else ignores or makes fun of Joe Flacco when he tries to point out that he's elite.
* BigNo: Adrian Peterson after coming up 9 yards short of the NFL single season rushing yard record.
* DontExplainTheJoke: Ben Roethlisberger always explains jokes.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Happens a lot, although Sam Bradford constantly uses his Facebook appearances to analogize something as trivial as a tie to some horrifyingly perverted sex act.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Tom Brady and Peyton Manning.
* HulkSpeak: Marshawn Lynch types in all caps, refers to himself in the third person as Beast Mode, and apparently does not have a good grasp of grammar.
* JerkAss: Everyone, including Tim Tebow at one point. And how. The only exceptions are Andrew Luck and Greg McElroy, even Luck's threat to Russell Wilson was a lot less malicious then anyone else's
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Considering the NFL has 32 teams with 32 quarterbacks, not including the backups and other NFL players, this could rival the Simpsons for the amount of characters it has.
* LovableSexManiac: Tom Brady, even to to the point where he points out that Matt Schaub, Ryan Tannehill, and Jay-Z's wives should be bedding with him, and at least one of them supposedly does.
* MrExposition: Philip Rivers always announces the appearances by non-NFL quarterbacks.
* MyNameIsNotDurwood: Christian Ponder. Nobody gets his last name quite correct. Names include Parker, Plunder, Plummer, etc.
* NoIndoorVoice: PEYTON GODDAMN MANNING!, BEAST MODE MOTHERFUCKERS!, every threat made to Russell Wilson, the list goes on.
* PrecisionFStrike: There's usually one every week by a quarterback whose team craps the bed against a worse team.
* ProfessionalButtKisser: Andrew Luck.
* StrawLoser: Everybody hates Tony Romo for whatever reason, despite the fact that he's done nothing. This goes all the way to the super bowl when he hosts a party that all the other quarterbacks were invited to, but no one came.
* ToBeAMaster: Joe Flacco tells everyone that he is elite throughout the first season, and does everything he can to prove he's right, [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer and yet the other quarterbacks don't listen to him and/or make fun of him for his attempts.]]
* {{Troll}}: Russell Wilson. Whenever he says something, the quarterbacks whom Wilson defeated in real life would [[IneffectualDeathThreats issue death threats]] to him, including, but not limited to, Aaron Rodgers, Brady, Romo, and Robert Griffin III.
