NFL QB Rankings


The NFL season is still two months away but that won’t stop us from ranking the top QB’s in the league. There has been a ton of blogs ranking NFL players per position. Here’s our take on the best gunslingers in the league.

Feb. 07, 2010 - Miami, FLORIDA, UNITED STATES - epa02020903 Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning warms up on the field at Sun Life Stadium prior to the start of Super Bowl XLIV in Miami, Florida, USA, 07 February 2010. The New Orleans Saints will play the Indianapolis Colts in american football's annual championship game.

1. Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints. This shouldn’t come as a surprise. He surpassed Manning and Brady last season.

2. Peyton Manning, Indianapolis Colts. Manning may still be the best in the game, but Brees one-upped him in the Super Bowl.

3. Philip Rivers, San Diego Chargers. Rivers was the best QB in the second half of the season. He led the Steelers to 11 straight wins to close out the season.

4. Tom Brady, New England Patriots. Brady has lost a step and is thinking more about his knee than the routes. Is he an all-time great or just a great winner?

5. Brett Favre, Minnesota Vikings. When, not if, Favre comes back he will have another chance to lead the Vikings to the Super Bowl. He had a strong statistical season last year.

6. Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers. Who could forget the Rodgers-Kurt Warner showdown last year?

7. Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers. He can’t stay out of trouble off the field but is a proven winner on it.

8. Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys. Romo led the Cowboys to a postseason win last year. He’s taking it step by step. Jessica Simpson’s ex played more controlled football last year.

9. Eli Manning, New York Giants. Manning had the best season of his career last year statistically. Now, if only the Giants can find some receivers he can throw to.

10. Donovan McNabb, Washington Redskins. McNabb instantly makes the Redskins better. Maybe the change of pace will be good for him.

11. Carson Palmer, Cincinnati Bengals. With weapons on both sides of the field, Palmer is one of the most potent QB’s in the league.

12. Matt Schaub, Houston Texans. Schaub finally played all 16 games last season and produced some good numbers.

13. Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons. Ryan had a down season last year but we’d still take him over Flacco.

14. Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens. With the addition of Anquan Boldin, Flacco is set to turn Baltimore into a dangerous offensive team.

15. Jay Cutler, Chicago Bears. Cutler had a dismal season in Chicago throwing 26 INTs. A player of his talent is going to recover this season.

16. Matt Hasselbeck, Seattle Seahawks. Hasselbeck is a solid QB but lacks the overall talent to be one of the best.

17. Vince Young, Tennessee Titans. Young led the Titans to an 8-2 record but his accuracy is still questionable.

18. Chad Henne, Miami Dolphins. Henne is a developing player that can be the Dolphins’ QB of the future.

19. Mark Sanchez, New York Jets. Not turning the ball over goes well together with Rex Ryan’s tough defense. Hope he attempts more throws this year.

20. David Garrard, Jacksonville Jaguars Garrard, at best, is a borderline starter. Too bad the Jaguars missed out on local hero Tim Tebow.

21. Alex Smith, San Francisco 49ers. Smith has one last chance to prove that he’s just a semi-bust.

22. Jason Campbell, Oakland Raiders. Campbell can’t possibly play any worse than JaMarcus Russell can he? The expectations are low in Oakland –perfect for Campbell.

23. Matt Leinart, Arizona Cardinals. Let’s hope Leinart learned a thing or two from Kurt Warner before he retired.

24. Matt Stafford, Detroit Lions. Stafford had a solid rookie season last year. Now it’s time for him to show off his talent.

25. Kevin Kolb, Philadelphia Eagles How many people think that Michael Vick will be taking the snaps when Kolb falters?

26. Josh Freeman, Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Freeman was thrown into the mix after the Byron Leftwich experiment didn’t work in Tampa.

27. Matt Cassel, Kansas City Chiefs. Cassel is somewhat overrated and only played well in New England because of Bill Belichick’s structured offense.

28. Kyle Orton, Denver Broncos. Orton was not spectacular for the Broncos nor was he disappointing. At least he was a lot better than Jay Cutler last season.

29. AJ Feely, St. Louis Rams. Feely will fill in until Sam Bradford gets a grip of the Rams playbook.

30. Matt Moore, Carolina Panthers. The undrafted QB had a rating of 98.5. Not bad and tons better than Delhomme.

31. Trent Edwards, Buffalo Bills. It really doesn’t matter if Ryan Fitzpatrick is the starting QB for the Bills — they’d still be ranked second to last.

32. Jake Delhomme, Cleveland Browns. Delhomme is warming up the seat for Colt McCoy next season.
