Rank remaining playoff QBs

Have you seen the Lawrence Mahomes side by side stats over the last (can’t remember) games?
Almost identical.
Jax is 7-2 in the last 9.
Not commenting on the list/rankings but he has been very good.

From what I’ve seen so far:

Purdy
Jones
Burrow
Allen
Dak
Trevor

5. Purdy

This in no way means that the Bengals are certain to beat the Bills, but what Burrow did last week behind that awful offensive line was amazing. He had zero time to throw as the game moved on last week. All he had time for was 2.5 seconds or less, and even at that he was getting hit right after he threw the ball. On a 3rd and half yard play Zac Taylor admitted he called a roll out pass thinking it would be man coverage but it was zone and the play had zero chance to succeed, but Burrow made the unblocked $100 million Roquan Smith miss in the backfield and he scrambled for a first down (they scored a td later that drive). The Bengals had almost zero run game.

I admit that it helps to have a talent like Jamarr Chase. Both Burrow and Chase were limited to routes of 12 yards or shorter due to double teams and zero protection for Burrow yet they still found ways to get 17 offensive points against one of the best defenses in the NFL.

1. Mahomes - easy, doesn't turn it over and is arguably the best
2. Allen - has some absolute stupid throws, met by absolutely ridiculous ones
3. Burrow - calm, cool, collected.
4. Hurts - elite dual threat, but injury worries me
5. Lawrence - growing up infront of us.
6. Prescott - last night proved why he belongs, but he's also prone to making stupid arse mistakes
7. Purdy - his upside is limited, but he's been making most of what he's been given. he's the alex smith of game managers right now
8. Jones - he's been solid, nothing more. nothing less.

Based off of just this year

1) Mahommes - Duh
2) Hurts - think the dual threat aspect of him puts him ahead of Allen and Burrow. Yes injury is worrying but I think he'll be fine.
3) Allen - See above, just slightly less dual threat than Hurts. Some of the mistake filled games worries me with him but when he's on he's one of the best.
4) Burrow - Honestly should probably have him tied with allen. Just think allen at his best is alittle better than burrow but its close.
5) Jones - Think he does the most with the least. His only legit threat offensively is Barkley.
6) Lawrence - If he plays like he did the last few week of the regular season I think he's probably number 5. If he plays like he did last week he's potentially number 8.
7) Dak - Too inconsistent
8) Purdy - See below. He's doing a great job, but I think a lot of that is because of how talented this roster is. He's definitely guaranteed himself a long career as a backup, at worst, from this though.

Honestly Im fine with just about any order for 2-4

Im sorry I just dont trust someone that was the last pick of the draft and was thrust into the starting role out of necessity. Im not saying he's bad but I don't think he's better than anyone else left. The 49ers are just a really deep, really good team.

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills watching Purdy play and then hear all the hype he gets.

Like you said, much better than expected but he’s got a ways to go.

he's done a fantastic job for being a third string QB, last draft pick, and being asked to step up in late in the season.

however, having kittle, samuel, and mcaffrey in your back pocket can make it all a little easier.

Mahomes
Burrow
Allen


Lawrence
Hurts

Jones
Dak


Purdy

Did lance or Jimmy G look as good as he does?

perception has a lot to do with it. We expected those 2 to do what their doing. No one expected purdy to be holding his own like he has.

4 of the top 5 QB's in the NFL are all still alive on the AFC side of the playoff bracket IMO

My rankings:

1. Mahomes
2. Burrow
3. Allen(throwing way too many INT's to be #2)
4. Hurts
5. Trevor Lawrence

AFC is stacked
