The SportsHoopla QB Rankings: Pt. 10

[MHSL82]

Our previous poll ended with Philip Rivers winning by a large margin.

As the draft is coming up, this will be the last poll for awhile until it's over. When it comes back, you don't need to be in it for the long haul, just vote when you can. The offseason is long and I will space it out. There will come a time where it doesn't matter so I will group, but we'll go as far as we can.

Question: Who is the tenth best QB in the league?

Here are the parameters:

This is just for this coming year. Age can matter as far as current abilities and experience, etc., but don't choose a young QB over Peyton Manning because so and so is younger and can offer more years. Just base it upon who they are now. If younger means better, sure. Otherwise, it's irrelevant.

Assume that each QB is in the optimal system with an equal level of talent around them and coaching. If the current QB of a team does not fit in their current system or on a bad team, imagine them in the right system and average team.

Had to go Stafford here. Somewhat of a tough call but that cannon he has makes the difference. He has put up good numbers with a nonexistent running game, although he does get to throw jump balls to Megatron

I know Foles needs to prove it over an entire season, but it's time to give him his props and some benefit of the doubt here.

I got him right after Newton.

I got him right after Newton.

I was going to go Newton, but isn't he coming off surgery? I went with Foles by a hair.

 

[BritishDolfan]

I voted for Eli, but to me it's pretty close between him, Flacco and Foles.

 

[kcden]

I've gone with Newton on the last 3 or 4 polls.
I had ZERO faith in him coming out of college, but I think he has really grown (mentally and game-wise... not a lot of room for him to grow physically) quite a bit.
That said, he may really struggle this season, since the Panthers decided he doesn't really need receivers...

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

I guess i'm not in the minority here, but i'm going with Stafford.

 

[SonnyCID]

I dont understand the Stafford love. He forces a lot of throws, has poor mechanics and has been a shitty closer. He's been in the league for 5 years and hasnt really improved.
