Top 15 QBs in the NFL

[blams1989]

Keep telling yourself that. He didnt lead 2 TD drives in the 4th quarter to give his team the lead or anything...

And the Patriots didn't drop at least 4 easy picks late in the game, and failed to tackle Eli, and Tyree didn't make the most ridiculous catch off a BAD eli throw. And Eli threw a good pass to a wide open Burress that every starter in the NFL would have made.

Uhhh Big Ben has major concussion issues... you know, the same thing that ended Steve Young and Troy Aikmans careers.

As for Warner, why did he do so mediocrely with the Giants? Why was he sitting on the bench for 4 years in the middle of his career? The facts are that he is a dome QB. He can not handle adverse weather conditions well, and he needs to have a couple of superstar WRs in order to excel.

He found the perfect situation twice. Doesnt mean he sucks, but he is not a guy you can throw into any offense and find success

have you seen eli throw in the wind? floaters. thats one of the reasons philly came to NY and beat you in the playoffs last year. Look, Eli is a good quarterback. certainly top 10 in the league. In order to be a hall of famer though, you need to be one of the top 2-3 in the league for a long time. a career 57% completion rate, 79.2 passer rating. to give you something to compare that to, trent edwards has a career completion rate of 61% and passer rating of 77.9. don't get confused and think i'm saying that edwards is a good as eli, he certainly is not. But you have to have great stats to get into the hall and eli is nowhere neer having great stats.

Am I right?

[astrosmaniac]

also, why is everyone rating ryan above schaub? his stats haven't been nearly as good. he also was on a team with the 2nd leading rusher in the league last year, so the entire offensive pressure wasn't on him. he didn't win in the playoffs, so the only thing ryan has had over schaub is that his team has made the playoff, but more so because of a better defense and run game than because of him

no, we're not saying he sucks, we're saying you are severely overrating him. calling eli the 4th rated QB in the league and a shoe-in hall of famer is just ridiculous. i would place him around the same level as carson palmer, joe flacco, and jay cutler

[Fly-Eagles-Fly]

1. Peyton Manning (great player, multiple MVPs, etc)
2. Tom Brady (up there with Peyton, 3 SBs)
3. Brett Favre (The legend is still playing good)
4. Eli Manning (Youngster on track for a spot in Canton)
5. Big Ben (Hall of Famer so long as injuries dont ruin his career)
6. Drew Brees (great fit with Payton on the Saints. Would not be as good elsewhere)
7. Phil Rivers (Very good, proven QB)
8. Aaron Rodgers (needs to show he can win games vs good teams)
9. Tony Romo (pretty good QB. Playoff victory would be huge for him)
10 Kurt Warner (Arizona is the perfect place for him)
11 Donovan Mcnabb (Good QB dogged by injuries and choking)
12 Matt Ryan
13 Matt Schuab (good player, but still has not ascended into top QB)
14 Jay Cutler (not gonna put too much stock in this season, guys still a solid player)
15 Carson Palmer (overrated. above average QB, not much more)
16 Joe Flacco (solid QB, will get better with time)
17 Vince Young (has the talent, mental questions abound though)
18 Chad Henne (This kid is gonna grow into a very good QB)
19 David Garrard (middle of the road starter whos getting old)
20 Kyle Orton (decent game manager)

And Schaub's lack of a kicker who can make a FG. the texans could easily have had 2 more wins this year.

yes, i am extremely aware of that

So you say that Ben's injuries might keep him out of the Hall of Fame. Then you reference two quarterbacks who retired earlier than most due to injuries . . . and they're both in the Hall of Fame.

That was a good catch with Warner. Kudos to you. He's a Hall of Famer himself, but he was only great when he had Isaac Bruce and Torry Holt, or Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin. Not much really on the Giants. Maybe a mentor to Eli. And that's worked out perfectly, since Eli has only been effective when he has solid receivers.
