While true, in two of those eight games the losing QB statistically outplayed the winning QB.

I'd also argue if even Alex Smith had been the Texans QB they might have won that game, NE was not very good last night.

It boggles my mind that Brock Osweiler was one of those "superior QBacked" wins.

I do think you could argue Wilson vs Ryan being the better QB. Both are obviously good, and Ryan clearly had the superior year, but he also has much better weapons and doesn't play behind the comically bad Seattle o-line.

Ben is not better than Drew. Drew has never had an All Pro receiver. Ben wasn't considered one of the best until SB became the top receiver in the league.

Misleading. Jimmy Graham was a walking mismatch in New Orleans.

I don't think anybody believes Ben is better than Brees.

I think his point was Graham should count as a receiver since he functioned as one.

I can only think of 3 teams that didn't need above average QB's to win SB's.

1995 Bears (McMahon)
2000 Ravens (Dilfer)
2016 Broncos (yes, in his prime Peyton was well above average, but they didn't need him to win last year).
