Since it is almost impossible to actually rank each NFL QB from best to worst, just put them in tiers from elite to awful. Here's mine:

Tier 1 (elite)
Brees
Brady
P. Manning
Rodgers

Tier 2 (solid)
Roethlisberger
E. Manning
Romo
Schaub
Stafford
Ryan
Cutler

Tier 3 (on their way)
RG3
Luck
Freeman
Wilson
Bradford
Dalton
Newton

Tier 4 (mediocre)
Rivers
Flacco
Palmer
Smith
Ponder
Cassel
Foles

Tier 5 (god awful)
Sanchez
Gabbert

Elite- Brady, Rodgers, Brees, PManning

Above Average- Schaub, Romo, Ben, Eli, Stafford, Cutler, Dalton, Newton

Average- Ryan, RG3, Wilson, Luck, Freeman, Rivers, Kaepernick, Cassel, Bradford, Palmer, Fitzpatrick, Tannehill

Bad- Flacco, Smith, Ponder, Sanchez, Gabbert, Weeden, Locker

I don't even know where to put all 3 of Arizona's QBs

Newton tier 4? Have you not seen what this dude has been doing to defenses the last few weeks? I don't like him at all but he's a good quarterback.

Maybe if you consider ALL the QBs in the NFL. If you only factor in starters, he isn't.

32 starters = 3 or 4 are elite.
100 active roster/practice squad = ~10 are elite.

I'd say Eli was elite.

Dang, the butthurt from Auburn fans is already taking over this thread.

I put Cam in the next tier up, hopefully that'll make you guys feel better about yourselves.

I'll also admit that I haven't watched him a ton, but doing Superman celebrations when you're down 3 scores and have thrown 4 ints is not really characteristic of a good QB.
