Of the best QBs in the NFL, Rodgers Brees, and Wilson are considered amongst the best, probably 3 of the top 4 after Brady. And they're among the shortest as well. Antonio Brown and Odell are under 6 feet and considered amongst the best at their position.

Is talent measured by height? Haven’t heard of this. Brees is the most talented QB to walk the face of the earth but he’s short

It’s part of it not all of it. If height was the only measurement of talent, Brock Osweiller would be a hall of famer.

If Rico was taller coach would have put him in and they would have won State.

Size matters.

Compared to other QBs yes Rodgers is in the lower tier as far as height goes compared to other starters in the league. He's 6'2" but look at everyone else.

And Assweiler being brought up is exactly my point. Dude sucks but keeps getting jobs and fatass checks despite it.

You see a ton of qbs around 6’1” or 6’2” but practically none that are shorter than that.

You were a condescending dick. Someone's a condescending dick back and you wonder why?

Maybe Ryan, but you're incorrect with the rest. Ben gets a lot of love for 2011 through 2015, but he hasn't been anything special for a decent chunk of time now.

Stafford and Cousins? C'mon man. Wilsons average Passer Rating is higher than Stafford's best individual seasons.

Fwiw, Brady worked himself up there. Aaron Rodgers and Peyton were/are far more talented than Brady ever has been.
