Name your elite qbs

[Ghazi]

Elite should just be the top 5 QBs in the NFL. What is the definition of "elite" anyway?

1. Rodgers
2. Manning
3. Brees
4. Brady
5. Big Ben

elite

[manufan10]

The Ravens made the playoffs and won the SB on the arm of Joe Flacco. This team has morphed into an offense-first squad too, no longer riding their defense to wins. The 2 biggest wins of their regular season (Pats and Giants) were b/c of Flacco, their playoff wins were b/c of Flacco, and they are SB champs b/c of Flacco. He's elite. He's outplayed Brady in 2 of 3 playoff games (all 3 games were in NE), has outplayed Peyton Manning in another, and raped the 49ers defense in the SB. What QB has the playoff resume he has? I can think of 3 in today's game: Brady, E. Manning, and Rape. He has 4 more postseason wins than Rodgers and Brees with the same # of SB's. Look who he's lost to in the playoff's as well: Ben (x2), Brady, and Peyton. His team was never eliminated by Matt Hasselbeck, Colin Kaepernick, Tim Tebow, Jake Plummer, Mark Sanchez, Billy Volek, Alex Smith, David Garrard, or Rex Grossman either.

DD with the goods.

How the do so many of you have flacco as elite?

[Clipper Nation]

How the do so many of you have flacco as elite?

Because he is elite?

[Creepn]

Because DD says so.

Flacco got them fooled and he'll be laughing all the way to the bank. He's not going to another superbowl.

You're invited to prove otherwise--but you simply can't.

-Most road playoff wins in NFL history
-Not only beating elite QB's in the playoffs, but outplaying them as well
-Most wins as a starter since 2008 (when he came into the league)
-Tied the greatest playoff run by a QB in NFL history (Joe Montana, 1989)
-SB MVP

"{Teddy KGB Voice} It hurts, doesn't it?"

[FlaSpursFan]

Brady
Brees
Rodgers

Agreed except im boarderline willing to add in flacco depending on what I see next season.


I would like to add guys like peyton, eli, and ben but I would really just be lying to my self.

[irishock]

Gotta add Romo in there

[DeadlyDynasty]

we have another finfan. Gonna have fun toying with this new stain next season

[lefty]

For those who are more knowledgeable in Football than I am, which teams have won the SB with a ty QB ?

[DeadlyDynasty]

2005 Steelers (Ben was not yet elite, and played like in that SB)
2002 Buccaneers
2000 Ravens
1990 Giants

My team may suck... But at least they are better than the ty bills

Thanks

[DeadlyDynasty]

To amend my list, Brad Johnson wasn't a ty QB--he was mediocre but had a couple good seasons. Ben had a bad SB but played well at Cincy, Indy, and Denver in that playoff run--he was a big reason they got there in the first place. Dilfer and Hostetler were scrubs, though.

I just posted this in the club but I'm bored and it's appropriate here too.

Is that supposed to be me symbolically putting a beatdown on DD?

He was carried to achieve those things, just as Ray Lewis got the team to the SB. He beat a choker (peyton), an aging pussy (brady) that even the rookies mopped the floor with, and a rookie qb with his 10th start.

Brad Johnson looked impressive on paper even with a superbowl and is still not considered elite. Mark Sanchez won all of his away playoff games. Even the butt fumbler can achieve that pfff.

How bout his passer rating? Is he consistently over 90? I think not. Flacco had A fluke season by the power of Lewis.

Damn, Creepn is salty mad that Kaepernick choked

4 straight 100+ ratings in the playoffs is a fluke? What other QB's have done that?

You wanna make a bet that Joe Flacco doesn't win another superbowl?

Think about it now. Flacco's biggest threat is the deep ball. Think defenses aren't going to adjust to that?

Do you wanna make a bet Kaepernick wasn't a rookie this year?

That would also be a weird bet, seeing that Joe Flacco has probably 10 or so more years before he retires. I doubt this site will be around then

Flacco's biggest threat is his deep ball, but he's gotten a lot better at intermediate and short routes. It's not like he's Mike Vick and only knows how to rifle the ball downfield. He's a dropped Lee Evans pass away from being in two straight superbowls, and his regular season numbers the last 4 years have all been decent to good. If his team lets him air it out more on 1st and 2nd down this year (which it's going to have to with the defense losing Ray and other key players), he'll put up 30+ touchdowns and 4000+ passing yards.

I bet you was one of those guys slobbing over Fitzpatrick and screaming "MVP!" when he had those 4 straight games with 100+ ratings huh? How are the bills?
