I’m not ranking these quarterbacks by who has the best arm, or who puts up the best stats, or who is the best fantasy quarterback, put if I had to win one game, which quarterback would I pick.
1. Tom Brady
He’ll have to show that he’s not shell shocked after that knee injury, but I believe in Brady’s confidence. He doesn’t seem like a guy who has confidence issues. He has three rings and is 3-1 in Super Bowl games. He has shown he can win with a good running back supporting him and an average running game, good receivers, average receivers, a good defense and an average defense. He can make every throw and on occasionally he almost has, going 26-28 in a 2007 playoff game against Jacksonville, with the 2 incompletion being dropped passes.
2. Ben Roethlisberger
Surprise! I don’t like Peyton Manning quite as much as Big Ben. Big Ben can do it all on the field. He feels the blitz, extends plays, fights for extra yards, fights to extend plays, and makes long throws. He has survived in Pittsburgh will almost no offensive line for 2 seasons. He’s a born leader on the field and an all-around tough guy. He has 2 Super Bowl rings to his name and always shows up for the big game.
3. Peyton Manning
There’s no denying the talent. Manning may only have one rings and an average playoff record, but he’s got one of the best arms, if not the best arm in football, and he’s his own offensive coordinator. He has some issues against 3-4 defenses, but he’s far and away better than any quarterback left on the board.
4. Kurt Warner
Another kind of surprising one. He only has 1 rings, but he’s been to the Super Bowl 3 times in his career, despite the fact that he hasn’t played than many seasons in the NFL. He’s injury prone and old, but he’s a great leader on the field and if you give him the ball, let him drop back 35-40 times per game, he can lead give your team a chance at victory. Give him a mediocre offensive line, a playoff, a mediocre running game, one good receiver, 3 average receivers and the chance to throw, either from under center out of shotgun, as much as he wants, and you’ve got a shot at victory.
5. Drew Brees
He doesn’t have a lot of playoff experience, but there’s no denying the talent. He didn’t have a ton of help last year for the injury plagued Saints, but he still kept them in every game with his arm alone. He may have choked late in a few games, and he doesn’t have very much experience in big games, but his arm is so much better than any one left that it barely matters.
