Antonio Romos last 4 years. Find me 4 Qbs better over that span

247 yds/g / 34 tds / 9 ints / 113 rating
255yds/g / 31 tds / 10 ints / 97 rating
306 yds/g /28 tds / 19 ints / 90 rating
265 yds/g / 31 tds / 10 ints / 102 rating



Come on... Romo was 23rd in the league last year in pass attempts. Their run game is what made him efficient and yet he still turned the ball over every 43 pass attempts where Brees did it ever 39 attempts.

Ben turned it over every 55 attempts.

I have Luck easily in my top 5. And it's fine that not everybody does. But we're gonna wake up any day now and he'll be #2 on this list.

Is it just the turnovers and turnovers in the playoffs keeping him off most people's lists?

Right. These guys are all better than Tony. I should have worded find 5. My point is Tony is the guy who should be number 5


ETA: Although as on this season I would prolly put Tony ahead of Peyton. And MAYBE Brees

As far as current performance:

1). Brady
2). Rogers
3). Brees
4). Manning
5). Big Ben/Luck

He will be the best in the league once he fully matures and I can't wait to watch. He's an exciting player to watch.

than Brees last year with a worse offensive line.


I don't know about that. The Saints line was pathetic last season.

Ben had arguably his best season of his career last year

This is what happens when you play two of the worst divisions in the NFL. One in which was historically bad.

So what about the other years where his O-line and running game sucked?

As usual, Flacco flying under the radar.



Playoff Flacco is elite.

Regular season Flacco is average.

I guess I am fine with that. I put Tony over Ben personally because Tony's season last year is far greater than Ben's best ever season IMHO. My main argument is I dont see how Luck is on so many peoples list. Maybe in the future, but his current numbers dont hold up

And Ben takes playoff wins and SB's overall.

You mean the 2011, 2012, and 2013 seasons when his team went 8-8 each year and didn't make the playoffs?

Well this year the Steelers play the NFC West, Patriots, and Colts.

If Bell improves even more, he might not have to throw as much. But the WR cast of Brown, Wheaton, Bryant, Coates, and TE Miller, plus Bell catching screens will allow Ben to put up huge numbers.
