:lol Rivers & Luck being higher on the list than Romo :lol I'll give you Big Ben but Romo is defnitely #4 AT LEAST, arguably #3 right now

[Chris]

Alex Smith gets zero respect :lol

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

:lol Rivers & Luck being higher on the list than Romo :lol I'll give you Big Ben but Romo is defnitely #4 AT LEAST, arguably #3 right now

I'll give you Luck, but Rivers is the most accurate passer in the game.

[Raven]

what a retarded list..

[tlongII]

Mariota is in the 3rd tier? :lol

[Clipper Nation]

Too high: Big Rape, Rivers, Ryan, Struggle, Cum, Johnny Leaf

Too low: Palmer, Flacco, Tannehill

[Clipper Nation]

Alex Smith gets zero respect :lol

He's the textbook definition of an average game manager, and he shits the bed in the playoffs. Basically the 2015 version of Neil O'Donnell.

[Chinook]

Nine is too many elite QBs.

[Robz4000]

:lol Rivers & Luck being higher on the list than Romo :lol I'll give you Big Ben but Romo is defnitely #4 AT LEAST, arguably #3 right now


Alex Smith gets zero respect :lol

You try making a somewhat intelligent comment (Rivers > Romo), then completely lose all credibility with your second comment :lol...

[Obstructed_View]

If the Giants win Sunday it's pretty unlikely that Romo's on the first tier of that list, whether he deserves to be or not.

[HI-FI]

how the fuck is Rapistburger no.2? maybe i'm missing something. Rodgers is easily no.1. If Brady (or whomever they shuffle into QB) has Ernie Adams telling them what the D is doing every down then I guess no. 2 or 3 is fair.

Romo has been the most underrated bean3r in quite sometime. I'd take him over most of the QBs.


Alex Smith gets zero respect :lol
cosigned.

[Arcadian]

Guys, it's not that hard to see why they'd rank Ben so high. He was the leading passer in the NFL last year, breaking several franchise records along the way, including back to back 500 yard games.

Furthermore, go fuck yourselves.

[Holden_Caulfield]

Lol @ Bridgewater

[spurraider21]

Lol @ Bridgewater
Rosenthal has been on teddy's nutsack for a long time. I disregard anything he says

Is there any specific reason bortles is a tier ahead of Carr :lol

[Raven]

well, you've got to give him the edge since he doesn't play for the raiders..

[spurraider21]

Are the jags that much better? :lol

Its one thing to rank him higher (which I'd assume most disagree with) but to have him in another tier? Cmon

[Raven]

and lol @ "hot seat" tag.. what was the guy smoking tbh :lol

[td4mvp2k]

it's romo's to lose and not even close tbh

[Raven]

romo is not an elite qb btw, never been never will.. it's nice to see him improve though, but that is to be expected given the offensive line.

[td4mvp2k]

elite dont include deflating balls tbh

what language is that?

What do you consider "Elite".

[LkrFan]

2 timer at 17? :lol

[Chris]

Eli got shat on big time with this list, while most experts agree this is the end for Peyton. This list is a joke tbh

[Raven]

What do you consider "Elite".

a qb is elite if you put the top qb in his place and there is only a slight improvement.

[HarlemHeat37]

Eli got shat on big time with this list, while most experts agree this is the end for Peyton. This list is a joke tbh

Eli is a shitty QB, tbh:lol..

[HarlemHeat37]

There's only 1 elite QB in the league, too, 9 is just ridiculous..

SO what? That doesn't make him top 2 or 3 QB.

[Chris]

SO what? That doesn't make him top 2 or 3 QB.

Never said he was top 2? I got...

Rodgers
Brady
Ben
Romo
Ryan

Top 5 based on performance so far imo I would love to hear an argument otherwise

[Robz4000]

-He's 1-4 in the playoffs
-He's played alongside top tier receivers his entire career and still can't win
-Throws picks at a fairly high percentage (~25 TDs to ~20 INTs last year alone iirc)
-System babby QB
-Been pretty unclutch the last few years (hasn't been Matty Ice since 2012/13)

I agree he's been pretty unclutch for a while, but I like to give the QBs a clean slate every season. Also consider the outstanding competition he's been up against throughout the years. Peyton and Eli both appear to be regressing and I'm still not completely sold on Kaep or Wilson who appear, strangely, to be regressing as well. Everything changes quickly week to week in the NFL so my list could be obsolete by week 3 tbh.

None of those four are elite (anymore in Manning's case), and neither is Ryan. Like Harlem said, there's one truly elite QB in the league right now (but I can see an argument for Brady), several borderline elite, the very good, the average, and the shitty.

Definitely agree with all that, and I never considered Romo elite fwiw that word gets thrown around far too loosely these days.

[spurraider21]

Brady is playing as well as he ever has. I'd say he's elite right now. Just Rodgers and Brady in that category.

[MultiTroll]

Tier 1: Elite
4 - Philip Rivers

Tier 2: "Next level QB's" (above average)
12 - Peyton Manning

:lol Rivers "elite".

Fiveheads QB IQ, even with his physical decline is 8 million times higher then Opie Rivers.

[FkLA]

How long before Football makes his way into the Top 10?

probably by midseason imho

[SuperCam]

Five years top 5 QBs should look like:

Rodgers
Luck
Newton
Ryan
Flacco


Pretty slim pickings after that... don't see any strong talent entering the league. Those 5 will be playoff mainstays for a long time.

I really dont know why am i doing that, but what the fuck with "five years top 5qb" only to put Newton there :lmao. Maybe top 5 black QB`s in Carolina roster ? Newton is there also.

its another way if saying "if you take away 10-15 qb's better than cum, then he's top 5"

[pgardn]

Tier1: Rodgers
Tier 2: Brady

Now go ahead with Tier 3 and down because it's a mess.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

From the beginning of the year :lol

[spurraider21]

Carr shitting on the doubters


Apologies for the homer talk, but tbh the Raiders haven't been this relevant since I was in middle school :lol

[Avante]

Forget ..."a"...season. I'm talking body of work so far.

1.Tom Brady
2.Peyton Manning
3.Aaron Rodgers
4.Drew Brees
5.Big Ben
6.Tony Romo
7.Eli Manning
8.Philip Rivers
9.Russell Wilson
10.Andrew Luck

[Darth_Pelican]

:lmao Brees at #8 :lmao
:lmao Sam Bradford

:lol I know. Hilarious that the ranker thought that there are 7 QBs currently better than Brees.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

9.Russell Wilson
10.Andrew Luck

Andrew Luck had worst stats than Cam in 3 out of the 4 years he's played. He has no body of work.

Brees's body of work currently surpasses Rodgers when you compare career statistics. They have both played in 2 NFC Championship games and both have 1 Superbowl MVP, so that's a wash. Rodgers will eventually pass Brees, but right now he is ahead.

[spurraider21]

Never take greg Rosenthal seriously

[Avante]

Andrew Luck had worst stats than Cam in 3 out of the 4 years he's played. He has no body of work.

And John Riggins only averaged 3.9 yards a carry and in the HOF, not just talking stats here....obviously!

Dude, ya gotta stop this silly....OH MY GOD CAM NEWTON AND THE PANTHERS YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...ok? I've seen a lot of QB's from the late 50's, ok? Newton is ..ok...alright, stop acting goofy about it, alright? He is not as good as Andrew Luck, believe it, alright?

[Avante]

Brees's body of work currently surpasses Rodgers when you compare career statistics. They have both played in 2 NFC Championship games and both have 1 Superbowl MVP, so that's a wash. Rodgers will eventually pass Brees, but right now he is ahead.

Well aware of that, I just think it's understood Rodgers is the better QB.

[Raven]

right now Brady is on a class on his own above everyone else. And he's not even trying.

[spurraider21]

Agree on the first part.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Well what makes Luck superior?

Best record ever:
Cam: 12-4
Luck: 11-5

Both players have been to the divisional round twice. Don't understand your logic.

I don't even like Luck, ok?

Stop with the stats thing, alright? I 'm going with having watched them play many times. I see a better QB in Andrew Luck as does anyone who understands the game. You're all up in ...THE PANTHERS ARE MY TEAM YIPPEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!...so ya don't see things for how they really are at all.

Dude, I know a guy from China (track board) who is always....ya just wait someday...hahahaha!!!!!!! You remind me of him, ya have no idea what reality is.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Not about being a homer, it's about doing more with less.

It's understood Rivers is a better QB than Eli, but you still put rivers behind him.

[Pelicans78]

No way Brees should be behind Ryan, Romo, or Luck. Easily better than those guys. Still a top 5 QB. He's had to deal with three of the all-time worst defenses in NFL history three of the last four years.

[AlexJones]

Rodgers, Brady, Roethlisberger and Newton are the elites

[Avante]

The top 10 from an historical perspective.

5.Eli Manning
6.Big Ben
7.Philip Rivers
8.Tony Romo
9.Carson Palmer
10.Russell Wilson

[SuperCam]

Carson Palmer? What the fuck has he done from a historical perspective, you dipshit

[Avante]

Carson Palmer? What the fuck has he done from a historical perspective, you dipshit

Well lets see dummy.

In the history of pro football Carson Palmer is in the top 25 in both TD passes and yards. The only current QB's with better stats are those ranked above him.

Do your homework amigo, ok?

Save.....he never won a SB, well neither has Philip Rivers who is a hell of a lot better than Trent Dilfer, Jim McMahan.

Palmer has 259 td passes.

HOFers

Joe Montana 273.....if Palmer plays one more season he passes him.
Sonny Jurgenson 255
Dan Fouts 254
Y.A.Tittle 242
Len Dawson 239
George Blanda 236
Steve Young 232
Terry Bradshaw 212

I know what you're thinking, what about the black QB's?

1.Warren Moon....291
2.Donovan McNabb...234
3.Randall Cunningham....207

Only black QB 's in the top 50.
