Best QB in NFL today (career and current factors considered)

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

Rodgers edges out Brees though I might like Brees slightly more.

Chad Henne is better than like half these names. Why can't the NFL find any good QBs anymore.

Cam Newton is the only one of those I'd consider good. Stafford is someone you didn't mention that I like a lot and would obviously class above Rivers, etc. even if he never wins. Part of the problem is that I watch very little NFL I guess (12 games this year maybe?) so a lot of my perception dates back to college days for Flacco and Dalton and even Ryan while I really don't consider Rivers very good. Romo has surprised me this year though.

Regardless, I was going more for the team names that IDS Judicial Overlord mentioned.

I mean we got guys like Logan Thomas in competitions to start this week. Quite insane after seeing him play in the ACC (I know he lost the job, but still, just the talk). It amazes me that Zac Mettenberger is more than a practice squad player. Certainly, he has a stronger arm than some of those SEC rivals from last year, but that's all the more reason he should be on a practice squad - higher ceiling, lower floor.

Hopefully guys like Marriota, Mannion, Prescott, Connor Cook, Bryce Petty, John Robertson, and Vernon Adams can break into the league in the next couple years. There's a lot of potential waiting in the wings. Winston in all likelihood too.

Then you got gus like Hundley, Hogan, Kenny Hill, Golson, Bryan Bennett who could make the next level too (though admittedly, I have less faith in those but Hundley wouldn't shock me).

Recent years have had guys like  gabbert and tannehill and bortles and ej manuel and ponder get selected as franchise QBs which is just nonsense. I have some faith in Bridgewater, but some of these picks seem downright desparate. (Not picking on florida haha)

Funny thing is there's some decent backups in the league especially Garoppolo who could impress given an opportunity  (and not just like Matt Cassell). I don't even mind Matt Flynn and certainly not Ryan Mallett. And then there's a pretty proven guy like Hoyer on the market. I'm actually in total shock that Jeff Mathews can't crack the Cardinals top 2 with palmer and Stanton out.
