Who's the best QB in the league right now

Wow no love for Brees? Maybe I should have put Vick in the poll rather than Brees. I still like him and I rank him third behind Brady and Rogers.

I think it all depends. Peyton is the smartest but is not and never has been CLUTCH.

Brady has done some great things with "not so great talent" around him (1st couple of Superbowls) but then when he got injured, Matt Cassel stepped right in they didn't really miss a beat so I would say that system is set up for success. Hard to Argue with 3 superbowl appearances though.

Rodgers is really making a name for himself. He is in the Superbowl in just his 3rd full season as a starter and he went through 3 tough places on the road to get their (Philly and the most explosive offense, The best team in the NFL Falcons and the 2nd best team in the NFC Bears). In his 3 years starting, he has 87 TD's and only 32 INT's.

Brees has looked great since joining forces with Sean Payton and has to do more than some others because of his size. He also didn't look THAT great this year so I will put Big Ben above him EASILY right now.

Philip Rivers played lights out but it was unfortunate to have the #1 Offense and Defense and not make the playoffs. With the game on the line, he is not all that. he is not bad, don't get me wrong, he is just not GREAT.

So I think it all depends on how you look at it. Right NOW, I'll say Brady is the best with Big Ben and Manning duking it out for the CURRENT 2nd and 3rd spot with Rodgers, Brees and then Rivers finishing it off

I would trade the next three years first round picks for Rodgers in a heart beat.

"Right now" meaning this year. I would rank it different if you are going over time.

1) RAPEberger.
2) Rodgers.
3) Brady.
4) Manning.
5) Brees.
6) Rivers.

Only thing is who's the better QB, i would say Rodgers, but i think Ben has the edge two weeks from now because of his past SB experiences.

Well the experience plus I think his team is a little better. Not that the Packers are bad. But IMO the Steelers should win if they play their A game.

True, still hoping Rodgers gets his ring but will be tough, Steelers are tough to beat.

I don't know the Packers are a pretty hot team right now. Plus, I really believe that Rogers will outplay Rothlisberger it's just a matter of can the Steeler D. stop Rogers.

i put Brees #2, behind Brady. He didn't have a great year this year, but over the last several years he has more yards and TD's than anybody, plus the SB win over Manning. Brees is da s**t.

i just posted my top 4 qbs. the title of the thread says the best qb not rank the following 6 qbs.

anyway, i can't believe im the only one who mentioned vick. um he is going to the probowl this year and is a mvp candidate.

if we trade for Carson Palmer then him but until then its Brady

carson Palmer

Vick is great, but I based my "rankings" more on their play over the last several seasons. "right now" is a little vague, I guess, because it could mean just today or just this season or overall, for which you have to really take into account at least a decent body of work, and I think Vick doesn't really have enough to go on yet.

If we're just going on this season then:

Brady
Rodgers
Vick
Rivers
Big Ben
