TOP 65 QBs in The NFL ( By Bleacherreport.com)

[Cirmman]

I thought this would be interesting for a discussion. We've ranked starting QBs before but never factored in backups. Yes, it's Bleacher Report...but...

Interesting.

I would have had Leinert at #52... but other than that, spot on.

 

[Trrrroy]

Interesting.

Is it sad that I actually laughed at that?

 

[TheRealDTM]

LOL Bleacher Report, Ponders not that bad (see vikings playoff game). I'm Wiggy for Thiggy tho.




Edit: Michael Vick, slightly worse than Matt Moore :th2thumbs:

 

[JSeahawks]

Where's Portis? Portis should have been 12.

Man, I hope not. I'm still laughing!

LOL Bleacher Report, Ponders not that bad (see vikings playoff game).

Ponder didn't play in that game. All Joe Webb's awful performance proved is that Joe Webb sucks.

 

[CANHawk]

Lists like this are so silly and arbitrary. You can really only realistically do top 10 and bottom 10. Anything in between is just a mish mash of misc. Like is Mallett reeeealy 20 spots worse than Kyle Orton? Who knows! Mallett is a back up who hardly ever plays and last time Orton started he got benched for Tim Fricken Tebow. How are you going to ever prove it those rakings? Have a QB combine? Never happen. Rankings like this are just pulling names out of one's butt. ...but that's Bleacher Report for ya.

only good thing Bleacher Report ever did was give Richard Sherman a microphone.

 

[hawksfansinceday1]

Cassel at #58? Sheeeeeit that's brutal.

I like that our backup rates higher than some starters. I know, purely opinion and all but still nice to see.

 

[Blitzer88]

I would put Christian Ponder above Mr. Pryor, other than that its an ok list.

 

[lukerguy]

Nick Foles at #42 is a joke. Really, they think Batch is better than him...?

 

[Chukarhawk]

LOL, the mighty T-joke did'nt event make the top 65. seems about right... snicker.

 

[travlinhawk]

LOL, the mighty T-joke did'nt event make the top 65. seems about right... snicker.

And for me the funny thing is is that I would want him over the bottom 1/3 of that list.

 

[theENGLISHseahawk]

I can't wait to see this piece near the top of every google search I do that involves the words 'quarterbacks', 'NFL' or 'Football'.

Of course, it'll be difficult to single it out alongside the other 17 similar Bleacher Report articles that have flooded the search.

 

[Chukarhawk]

Id take cassel over jackson and david Carr too but the rest of the bottom third arent better than our beloved Tarvarus.

 

[Trenchbroom]

Only Bleacher Report would put together a 65 picture slideshow for an article that should take 5 pages. Thanks Cirmman for cutting through the crap!

 

[JesterHawk]

Kolb at 23? I wasn't expecting to see ANY Cardinals' QB on the list.

 

[DavidSeven]

Not that I think he's a stud or anything, but I'm not sure how you justify ranking Freeman that low. He should be right around Bradford and Tannehill.

 

[ihawk]

Totally irrelevant, but 6 teams have 2 QBs ranked in the top 32:
Seahawks: Wilson/Flynn
49ers: Kaepernick/Smith
Redskins: RGIII/Cousins
Dolphins: Tannehill/Henne
Titans: Hasselbeck/Locker
Cowboys: Romo/Orton

Thank god you aren't our GM
