  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
I really hope Peyton Manning gets back to form from day 1. Hard to explain why, but screw Ben Rothlisberger.

I guess I'd go with in terms of what teams I think will/can get the most out of the position and have the best fall back plans. Also I will include logic for various reasons

NO....Ever seen this? It's like Madden with cheat codes
NE....Brady, BB, those TEs. Just try to stop them
GB....Rodgers is awesome
Giants...Eli has two rings now and did the last one in spectacular fashion
Detroit...Stafford is the man.


Jets......this Sanchez/Tebow thing in New York is a nuclear bomb waiting to happen. It will unravel everything. The fans won't accept it. Sanchez is freaked out. Tebow is freaked out. Ryan is playing with fire and has no plan.  He was more bark than bite from the beginning. This is a disaster.
Cleveland......The Browns haven't done well at this position since Bernie Kosar. I think it might be cursed.
Jacksonville...Gabbert showed nothing last year. Nothing
Seahawks...But Gabbert isn't a rookie any more and Wilson is.
Arizona....The only thing worse than a talented rookie with potential or a clear #1 who isn't great is a QB controversy between two guys that can't get it done. They should just go with Skelton, but Kolb just seems willed to make this thing a disaster.

In terms of just players

Brady....Nobody smarter...most of the time
Brees...Expert at Madden NFL QB position. Coming off essentially the greatest season ever for a QB
Rogers...A little like Brady but younger
Eli ......Did you see him in the Super Bowl?
Tebow....Makes everyone on the team play harder and better. Absolutely not his fault nobody knows how to use him. Yes it's a passing league and that's his weakness. Ever consider playing to his strength?



Tannehill....Miami hasn't had a good QB ever. EVER!
Gabbert.......He's only up to strike one. But it was ugly.
The Arizona mess...I shall say no more
The Seahawks situation...Matt Flynn already down for the count. This isn't the way this is supposed to be going.
Peyton...besides that he was already overblown I will believe he gets through the season alive when I see it. Four neck surgeries. Or was it five. I don't advise you to drive to work after 4 neck surgeries let alone play in the NFL.

Ditto, but I think the rankings for the top 4 are debatable. I'd just say there are 4 clear top teams, with Pittsburgh rounding out the list.

I think Eli is pretty good, but I don't think he is the best in the league.  I would probably say 5th behind Rodgers, Brady, Brees, Roethlessburger.

Honestly I think Roethlessburger and Manning are pretty good comparisons.  Both are winners on teams with strong defenses.  Both make big plays for their team in the passing game but don't necesessarily put up gaudy passing numbers.

I am willing to give Ryan Tannehill a pass because his wife is really hot.

I actually doesn't matter if he is any good. The Miami receivers are so horrible that Miami's pass offense should be painful to watch.
