I don’t think Burrow belongs in the top 5.
My initial reaction was to disagree on this, but realistically its totally fair. I think with Burrow its more of a reputation thing as opposed to a production thing. Pretty mediocre last year, Jake Browning played as well, maybe even better

I get that we are now in an age when quarterbacks aren’t just pure pocket passers.

But if I needed a QB to lead my team on a game-winning drive deep in the fourth quarter, Stafford would be second only to Mahomes on my list.
Me too. Some of those guys can get them in field goal range for a win. But when you're 4 points down and you know its gonna be the final drive, you need a touchdown. Mahomes and Stafford would be my picks in that situation.

Chris Simms was actually very jealous of Goff back in the day and was straight calling him a bust with Foolio. His analysis used to be complete shit but I will be the first to admit he's come along way. He always tries to incorporate some minor accomplishment to try to pat his own back every now and again ( I scored 4 TD's in one game for Polk High School) :laugh2:

Those dickheads deleted all their old youtube films i was looking for.
I searched for his list. All I found was where Simms is down to # 7 (Stroud)and hasn’t gotten to Stafford yet. So Stafford is in his top six. I don’t disagree with that.


Edit. Here is his top six

View attachment 65802

Not a bad list but how the fuck are you going to put Burrow and Allen over Jackson and Stafford?

Super Bowl second year. Bengals are only relevant with him active. He's the only one that has Mahomeboy's number.

Who are 5 qbs better than him right now??? I'm straggling to come up with 4 other. Let alone 5.

Mahomeboy

Josh Allen

Staff

Lamar???

Justin Herbert?

Jalen Hurts??

i used to hate simms a few years back...

but over the last few years simms seems to be the one who tells it like we all see it... not just the clik needy take....

he's growing on me...

good takes.. spot on with what i was/am thinking...

go rams

slo
I already tried to watch something from him once today. No way I can put myself through that again. I've read stuff he's said and haven't really found myself disagreeing with him near as much as I used to. But listen to that voice? Nope. Something about it just makes me cringe and looking for someone to punch in the pie hole. I'm not even sure what it is. I hear him and just think FUCK!

Yeah, I wouldn’t. I think Allen is a bit overrated. Once his legs start to go he’ll be as bad as late career Big Ben. Burrow is good but he can’t do what Stafford can do. It’s crazy how much people underrate Stafford.

Mahomes, Lamar, Allen, Staff, Goff, Hurts, then Burrow. Don’t forget about the Bengals defensive line in 22, they got to Mahomes four times.

Also, how many QBs would love to play with Higgins, Chase, and prime Uzomah? I know Lamar, Goff, and Carr would agree.

Jackson has been on a really good team and to this point is only a regular season hero. Its mahomes and Stafford 1,2.

I MIGHT trade Staff for Mahomes, but that’s it.

Well today I going with the ying & the yang. However one looks at it there different types of players.

If things go well The Rams & Matthew Stafford really have a good chance to win it all.

Right now The Rams did Matthew Stafford a huge favor by building an Offensive Line that should only help him get to even a HIGHER LEVEL. Add a TE & a extra RB should only help.

He has gotten a lot of mileage for his 2021 run, hasn’t he?
He’s talented, no doubt; but he needs to have a healthy, productive year to stay in the top 5, IMO.

Am I the only one other than @kurtfaulk who think Herbert belongs nowhere near his ranking?
No, you are not. How the hell does he make that list ahead of goff? Another guy who has lived off of a couple early wins (vs the chiefs) but he has had his big game ineptitude overlooked.

JB has gotten further than both Josh Allen and Lamar (Super Bowl).

Which is the same as Jalen Hurts and Jared Goff. So if those guys are top 5 (which I don't think they are) why disqualify JB?

You're really reaching by calling him "prime" CJ Ozomah. Dude is a career backup TE. Only getting playing time Tyler Eiefert kept getting hurt. btw had is best year in 2021. I wonder why....

Anyway doesn't Jalen Hurts have AJ Brown Dallas Goedert and Devonta Smith? Doesn't Jared Goff have Amon, Sam La Porta and Jamyr? Hasn't all the Jared Goff wars revealed he needs all the support in the world to be any good?

Why is it have a support system help some QBs a good thing but other QBs it's a "because of" a support system?

Joe is type 5. You can just tell watching him play.
