Could the 2012 rookie QB class challenge the 2004 class

[ManRamForPrez24]

I think the could. It's early, but the talent is certainly there. We shall see!

Brees, Brady, Mannings, and Rodgers aren't going to be playing forever, eventually a QB from a newer draft class is going to win a SB. From the 2012 class, I definitely see Luck winning one in his career.

Schaub and Rivers are nothing special. Ben and Eli are good second tier guys. I think it's a very realistic possibility Luck and RG3 finish with better careers than all of them.

Rivers has a career 95 passer rating. He was elite for 4-5 years...

Manning has never had a 95 passer rating SEASON.

[Quinnsanity]

It'll depend on Tannehill/Weeden/Foles/Wilson developing into a pro bowl type player. I think, given their current paths and assuming they stay healthy, Luck and Griffin should be able to cancel out Eli and Roethlisberger. I'm just not sure if any of those other guys can reach the Rivers level.

I've tried making this argument dozens of times. Nobody wants to listen. They just say talk to the rings.

Favre also had a 10% higher TD% and much better completion %'s.

Screw Favre. Most overrated ever

I forgot Eli is the NFL's Rudy.

welp time to be a homer... dont forget about brock osweiler when listing the qbs of the 2012 class. havent seen him except training camp and spring training but dude has definitely got a super high ceiling. not saying hes going to be winning super bowl (though cant say he doesnt have a chance ) but i think he will be starting someday

[SenecaValley46]

RG3 Wilson and Luck will have good careers but the rest of those QBs will be lifetime backups

[lvlheaded]

I give it 2 pages before this thread becomes a full blown Eli argument.

That said, it certainly could. But as of now thats a 4 ring super bowl class. And it looks like they will probably get more before they are done. The talent is certainly there though
