Never heard of the author of this amazingly stupid article, and I don't care what he thinks. But it makes me wonder if he really believes that Brees is not in the top ten quarterbacks in the league. And if he does really believe that, how did he manage to get a job being so ignorant. I know people will say these writers do this on purpose to get more comments. And that's probably true to a degree. But I would like to think they have some integrity. Amazes me when I see something like this. The only reason I clicked on the article to see where they had Brees ranked. I lmao when I realized they actually left him off the list entirely.

It's total click bait article complete with a slide show and video advertisement right in the middle. It was made to be stupid and make money. It wasn't made to be quality content.

The fact that this thread even got started let me know that the article snubbed Drew somehow

Exactly, rather than give him extra hits why not just post his top 10.

10: Matt Ryan (Only 10 wins bc he lacks a running game & Def. Has 4k yards last 2 seasons)
9: Phillip RIvers (63 TDs last 2 seasons, 4k yds 6 of last 7 years, talked smack to Cutler)
8: Roethlisberger (2 SBs, 106-52 in regular season & 10-5 in playoffs. Had career highs last year of 4,952 yds, 32 TDs, 9 Ints-lowest when playing 16 games)
7: Eli (Only thrown 30+ TDs twice, and hasn't been to playoffs in 3 years but has 2 rings)
6: Peyton (looked good but old; 39 TDs last season w/ only 3 over last 4 games)
5: Romo (Started at least 15 games last 4 years w/ at least 28 TDs each year. Won 2nd playoff game, career QB rating of 97.6)
4: Russel Wilson: (2 SBs in only 3 years w/ 1 win; does;t have good stats, but is 6-2 in playoffs - sour grapes note about loss to Pats)
3: Brady: (4 SB wins & 6 appearances, made playoffs 12 of 13 years w/ double digit wins all 12 of those years)
2: Luck: (Will be the best when Rodgers gets old, improved from 23 TDs to 40 TDs, can't beat Pats in playoffs)
1: Rodgers: (2 MVPs & 1 SB, started 15 games in 6 of 7 seasons, had fewer than 10 INTs in 4 of those seasons).

I'd put him over everyone on that list except Brady, who I'd put him even with. Rogers and Luck are the best two in the league right now.

I'd love to see Wilson on a lot of other teams to see if he's still in the top 5 of all these lists. I like him, but he's basically a rich man's Alex Smith.

In his research for this article he found that Rivers smack to Jay fricking Cutler was enough to place him 9th

Guys, you have GOT to stop getting pulled in by bullshite clickbait.

Why do you think journalism is so bad these days?
Y'all keep giving hits to articles with absolutely no substance.

I am a Falcons fan and know it is total BS to leave Brees off this list. Hell its is BS to not have him in the top 5.

If the guy wanted to make a case for him not in the top 5, fine. Although I'd disagree. But, not in the top 10 is ridiculous.

Rodgers - clear number one

Brady
Manning
Brees

Debate these how you want.

Big Ben
Romo
Luck
Rivers
Ryan

I could see a case for any of these at 5

Wilson - not as good as the ones already mentioned, but better than the rest in the league.

I like your list although I wanted to move Romo down. After looking at the rest I dont' think I can justify anyone taking his place

Damn. Ur right. I should have done that cuz I didn't want him getting anymore attention. WIll have to remember that if some other idiot writes a dumb article. I understand Skip Bayless and those guys being trolls because tv is different form of media and makes for better television. But for articles, I for one wouldn't purposely do this shite to avoid being perceived as a troll. I know I will never read an article with his name on it because I can't trust it.

I think luck will be the goat, but he hasn't past up Bree's at this point
