This is confusing. Peyton over montana and rivers over rodgers?

Edit

How is carson palmer on this list

 

[Family]

Never a fan, but Elway 12th behind Kurt Warner?

The list is a joke.

 

[jah]

Romo was probably in the same neighborhood as Bledsoe so I don't see that as outrageous.

 

[1960Pats]

Bart Starr isn't on the list but Alex Smith and Carson Palmer are?

 

[aluminum seats]

Eh, a few weird ones but I’ve seen worse.

Namath at 7 is sort of bananas though.

[RobertWeathers]

Bart Starr isn't on the list but Alex Smith and Carson Palmer are?

Winning and Super Bowls are 10X more important that stats

Most of this craziness can be blamed on Ohio.

Nothing can ever make sense while Ohio exists

 

[Patsfanin Philly]

Eh, a few weird ones but I’ve seen worse.

Namath at 7 is sort of bananas though.

Namath's record is sub .500 at 62-63 and td/int is 173/220..
I'd ask the author if he ever heard of Norm Van Brocklin, Y A Tittle, Slinging Sammy Baugh or Sid Luckman....

[Hammer of Thor]

Romo was probably in the same neighborhood as Bledsoe so I don't see that as outrageous.

I'll give them credit for consistency for that. But neither of them should be sniffing a top 25 list of anything.

Any top QB list that doesn't begin with Brady, Montana, Starr, and Graham (the order of the latter 3 can be debated) is an automatic fail. I would be begrudgingly accepting of the Fivehead getting the 5th spot, he did at least have one 2nd half of one post-season game where he didn't crap his pants.

Alex Smith, Carson Palmer? Didn't someone tell the author that crack is wack? And I'll 2nd Patsfanin Philly's comments, apparently if you're a pre-SB era QB you're worthless.
