Top 5 QBs in the league by QB rating

[rmilia1]

1. Manning
2. Rodgers
3. Rivers
4. Roethlisberger
5. Brady

- Surprised about Ben, I knew he had a HUGE week last week but didnt know he was having such a great year. Otherwise list looks about like I figured. Thoughts??

Has anyone mentioned that Mr. Rothlessburger just won his 100th career regular season game the other day? He's now 100-50.

Brees not being on the list this year surprises me a bit. They went and got him some major weapons with getting Cooks in the draft and resigning Graham. He just doesn't seem to be quite where he has been the past few years. I am very surprised to see him right outside the top-10.

The rest of the guys obviously are the usual suspects. Funny to me of all these people talking about the young guys taking over the league yet here we still see the almost usual top-5 guys that we see every year.

I would say the other big surprise is the play of Kyle Orton. Did anybody think he would be 6th in the league in quarterback rating? The guy is playing phenomenal and has the Bills right back in the playoff talk that they had after the first few games.

Also what is amazing about Roethlisberger is that so far this year every game but 2 have been over 100 quarterback rating. His two though that were not were down in the 60's. So he either lights it up or completely falls apart. 2 of the 3 losses this year have happened in those games (no surprise) and the other was the last minute comeback by the Bucs that surprised everybody.

Just think if he had all the weapons Manning has.....

In other news, water is wet.

I think most would agree that these are the top QBs in some order with Peyton being the guy you want in the regular season

and only 1 of what 3 or 4 guys to win 100 of first 150

6 is Kyle Orton though.

 

[cwood]

Replace Roethlisberger with Brees and this would be the least surprising list of all time.

But Palmer sucks!

 

[Scooby-Doo]

But Palmer sucks!

As Cardinal fans we have to stay modest. We have done nothing yet. Palmer looks good and the rest of the team looks great. Let's ride the wave, keep our mouths shut and let everybody underestimate us. We have a tough game coming up against Dallas. Let's pull that game off and keep inching our way closer to the playoffs.

What we do/say has no impact on the game whatsoever. That being said I'm still skeptical, being the pessimistic fan I can be from time to time. I like what we've done so far, but as you've said... WE AIN'T DONE NOTHIN' YET!

How many wins do you think it takes to win the division? I say 11.

I'd say that's about right.

11 sounds right to me.

6 is Kyle Orton though.

rmilia is THE loudest critic you'll ever hear of the QBR.

His little hero enters the top 5 and all of a sudden? "Hey guys, check out the QBR!!!"

Dude's trolling is incredible.

As always with him, it's 100% about Tom Terrific.

"I'm not even a Brady fan!" - with a straight face

 

[HammerDown]

And BTW, double-check these numbers cause rmilia makes shit up all the time.
