So the subject is The quarterbacks. on the team is a adjectival prepositional phrase modifying quarterbacks. "are " is the linking verb, and we know that everything that comes after a linking verb is the predicate nominative. So what is your answer?

OpenStudy (clobber02):

D?

OpenStudy (clobber02):

@Tjbrew

OpenStudy (tjbrew):

A predicate nominative or predicate noun completes a linking verb and renames the subject. Yes D. is correct!! ;)
