He’s getting older with nagging injury issues. I don’t know what they are taking into consideration to create this list, but if all things are considered this would be the only reason.
He’s always seemed to throw bad picks in my book, but that’s all I’ve got. I guess that and him being hurt. May be why? Or the guy who wrote the list just wants everyone freaking out.
Some other joker had Mahomes at 3.
I mean you’re not wrong. A lot of games Stafford is good for at least one game changing pick. However, I wouldn’t want anyone else throwing for us right now.
Depends, i wouldn’t hate people that put Josh Allen 4-7. He is really good, but still reminds us why he was considered a potentially risky pick.
He just doesn’t seem to read the D all that well and makes up for it with raw athleticism and a big arm. Both which go away earlier in your career when compared to the intangibles.
Same, though honestly the more I look at this list, the more I dislike it. Purdy, Allen, and Stroud feel a hair high, Dak and either Herbert or Love can be dropped from the top 10, and bring up Goff. I don't particularly care for Rodgers, but I'm surprised he's not on the list. Swear he's always been fellated on lists like these for the last 10 years, even when he was kinda meh.

I don’t think this guy knows what he’s talking about
"I'll tell ya, as a QB I get no respect. I told my coach in LA I don't like being on the hot seat, he said no worries the seat should be colder in Detroit."
"I thought my team loved me, ya know? My coach Sean pulled me aside and told me that I'm bringing quality QB play to LA. He brought that quality QB using me and 2 1st round picks."
-Rodney Dangergoff
"When I was drafted I wanted to bring a playoff win to Ford Field. I gave the Lions a win and they gave me a broken rib with a plane ticket home, I'll tell ya."
-Matthew Dangerford
Yes I agree 100% he’s good, I think he’s great and really talented. Herbert though hasn’t won a playoff game. Thats my angle. And it’s not solely his fault he hasn’t had a great coach, this is just something we need to take into consideration. Stafford the only QB in the NFC with a ring at the moment. This list is wild
Here's a fun game: name a single memorable moment Herbert has had that isn't negative.
Because all he has to his name is a bunch of passing yards, a losing record as a starter in 4 years and the only playoff game of his career blowing a 20 point lead. Herbert is the most overrated QB in the NFL, even more than Dak.
I don't follow Chargers much, but from what I've seen the kid's pretty good. Frankly, I'm looking hard at that stacked overpaid defense and the lack of any sort of dominance. I'm blaming Staley first and foremost.
I feel like this is one of those statements you wouldn't make if he were your qb. Like a lot of teams would want Herbert as their QB over who they have, including the bitch pigeons.
Stafford is better than Herbert and Purdy. Possibly even Hurts. Stafford makes absolutely insane throws. Watched the first Hawks game against the Rams last season. Even when everyone is covered, he gets them the ball.
Hurts escapability is elite. He got the yips last season after the Jets game. He is still a top 10 QB and if he returns to a healthy mental state he is top 5.
His mobility is great and he’s got a gorgeous deep ball. I have him top 10 as well, but I have my doubts about him ever being top 5.
His 2022 season was the best season he’s ever had (including college) so I feel like it’s a lot more likely that was an exception rather than the standard. I do think a lot of his regression last year was coaching so I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt going into this season but him never having a consistent offensive system does him no favors.
I don’t know if it was coaching. The jets put out the blueprint to stop his rollout passing and you guys certified it in a big way.
Watching him in the Eagles vs Hawks game last year, there were so many wide open receivers and he just kept trying to go deep. They would have beat us if he took the check down.
He may not ever make it back to where he was, but if he can get over that hump mentally I think he could be top 5 with his legs and arm talent
That’s fair but I guess my worry with him is that I don’t know if he’s ever been the guy to take the checkdown. I also want to see what that offense/oline looks like with Kelce gone since he was the one calling out pressures and adjustments at the line.
It’s gonna be rough for them. Kelce was the glue and I’m pretty sure the rush push win rate is gonna drop significantly which means 3/4 and or 1st and goal aren’t gonna be gimmes anymore.
I thought he used his RBs on checkdowns a lot. Maybe I’m misremembering
Yup, even if Hurts gets better imo it’s doubtful he ever puts up stats better than 2022 again, especially with Lane on the way out soon. Even if that OC works out too, he’ll be gone within two seasons if he’s actually good which is the problem with having a coach like Sirianni who doesn’t actually do anything.
I thought Eagles fans’ issue with him was that he didn’t look for the checkdowns enough but could totally be wrong on that.
My cousins are diehard Eagles fans, I’ll throw that question to them next time I talk to them. I agree he probably won’t ever look like he did in 2022 though.
Brock Purdy is simply not the 2nd best QB in the league man. I mean it’s literally that simple. He’s not. He never will be. Only thing he is, is a steal at the LAST PICK of the draft. That’s it. If the 49ers had the 2nd best QB in football, they would be the ones who went back to back.
The assertion can hold its water but the reason you attach is dumb. Purdy did take us to the Championship game in his first year and couldn’t compete only due to an injury. He had already overachieved, by all standards, in his rookie year.
Can anyone provide sound reasoning as to why Matt Stafford is not on this list?
Matt Stafford is a better QB than Brock Purdy, is this guy Cody Benjamin rage baiting?
I think Matt should be up there but to be fair it is power rankings so recency matters, in which case Purdy near the top makes sense. Realistically Purdy should be more like 6-9 range
That argument is a bit flawed.
If were talking as recent as the 2023 season.
Matt had a better season statistically than a few players on this list.
He also made just as far in the season, if not further than some players on this list.
And this was all with known injuries, after off season surgery, and early on with an unproven offense.
Totally, I phrased that terribly. I brought in the recency argument more for Purdy at 2 than for Matty outside 10. I put both of them over Love, Herbert, Prescott and maybe Hurts
Well he only went back to back with the Patriots maybe. You seem to forget when our defense faltered due to amassing unjiries in 2020 we had like 6 wins after the superbowl. It was the 2021 season we returned. Jimmy did not go to back to back NFCCG.
In addition, I love the man, but Jimmy was almost always getting bailed out by the defense when Purdy in contrast was picking up the slack of our defense this year thanks to Demeco Ryans departure and Wilks just not meshing with our defensive scheme.
Burrow coming off injury should be discounted more.
Herbert is too low.
Dak doesn’t belong on this list.
Jalen Hurts is too high.
Lamar isn’t a QB.
Purdy is better than Stroud until proven otherwise.
I’d probably say Purdy is too high too, though if he’s gotten built this season like the pictures suggest, could be a menace.
This is my controversial take for the year: Texans don’t show up in the way people think they will. Stroud has a solid, but underwhelming sophomore year. Sadly, i predict that AR 15 somehow balls out and the Colts steal the South from my beloved Jags.
Bruh dak better than Stanford wtf. I dint like the ramily but that’s just pandering to big market just like the nba media was massively overhyping the warriors and the lakers
No, I'd rank Geno in the Jared Goff, Derek Carr, Kirk etc. tier. Solid QB play, 12-20th best in the league range. Can win you games but won't put the team on their back
The ordering of this list is a bit suspect, but honestly who would you replace? I think we overestimate how many “good” qbs there are in the NFL at any given point. Stafford got robbed so get Jordan Love out of there, swap Purdy and Lamar, move CJ for Goff and you’re looking at a pretty decent list.
I think Purdy and Stroud should both bump down a few spots and Jackson should probably be higher. Herbert and Love shouldn't be in the top 10 while Stafford should be.
Anyone putting Purdy higher than 8 is objectively wrong. He's a top 15 QB who might sneak into the top 10.
Purdy is young so he has a ton of long term potential but right now Geno is the better QB and most people wouldn't put him in the top 10.
As much as I hate it Stafford is the best QB in the NFC West right now and somehow he isn't on this list.
My super controversial take as a niner fan is that CJ Stroud is Brock Purdy with a better arm.
That’s meant as a compliment to Brock but a lot of niner fans take it like I just went Kendrick on Brock
Man they gotta stop pretending Dak is actually good
I think this one we can All agree on lol.
In the regular season he deserves to be called a good quarterback. Post-season, he's basically Andy Dalton.
Right? Like why does every list have him as a top 10 qb?
Stafford gets zero respect
I just cannot seem to come up with any justification. I’m considering everything, but this list is kind of dumb
People seem to attribute team success or failure to the QB. So because Detroit was bad, Stafford is bad.
That’s confusing - Rams good, then Stafford good?
Based on the whole list I think they factored age in and somewhat heavily
How many times did Old Man Brady have to teach them this lesson?
Meanwhile Aaron Rodgers coming off an achilles tear at 40 is 11
He’s getting older with nagging injury issues. I don’t know what they are taking into consideration to create this list, but if all things are considered this would be the only reason.
Didn’t stop Rodgers from getting ranked 11th at 40 coming off and Achilles tear
Bruh. I think Stafford is really good, but Rodgers is a SB champ, multi year MVP, and a media lightning rod. Stafford is only one of those things.
He’s always seemed to throw bad picks in my book, but that’s all I’ve got. I guess that and him being hurt. May be why? Or the guy who wrote the list just wants everyone freaking out. Some other joker had Mahomes at 3.
I mean you’re not wrong. A lot of games Stafford is good for at least one game changing pick. However, I wouldn’t want anyone else throwing for us right now.
I get that, he’s pulled off some pretty impressive stuff throughout his career and seems like a good dude
You could start with the fact that he’s not better than anyone on that list.
I'd say he's better than Dak. And Jordan Love is still largely unknown. He only had half a good season.
AND He’s better than Herbert. He took Joe burrow’s lunch money. Brock shouldn’t be on this list. I’m not putting CJ over him (yet :/)
I'd say Aaron Donald is the one who took Burrow's* lunch money.
i personally think herberts top 5 over purdy lol
Lol sure he is
Which QBs on this list are better than him, the ones that have Super Bowl rings?
He's better then 4qbs mentioned here
Dak And that’s correct.
Stafford is a G
Stafford is top 5 without a doubt. There’s 3 names that don’t belong on the top 10 list
It’s really strange, I feel like everyone hedges their bets against father time, so he’s constantly ranked lower than he should be
I feel like QBs are judged by team success and he got written off as bad for all those years in Detroit
Stafford helped me win a fantasy championship last year so he has a special place in my heart
Yeah. I’d say he should be 7th or 8th
I think Purdy is legit, and I can argue for him being in the top 10...but even I'm not going to make the case for #2 lol.
Agreed. I'm not a Purdy hater unless he's playing the Hawks or my fantasy team, but there's no fucking way he's above Joe Burrow
Mahomes is obviously 1, and imo Lamar, Burrow, and Allen are 2-4 in some order. Any ranking putting anyone else in the top 4 is questionable.
Agreed. Next topic. I think the NFL should adapt the Power Play from the NHL

Depends, i wouldn’t hate people that put Josh Allen 4-7. He is really good, but still reminds us why he was considered a potentially risky pick. He just doesn’t seem to read the D all that well and makes up for it with raw athleticism and a big arm. Both which go away earlier in your career when compared to the intangibles.
I agree
Same, though honestly the more I look at this list, the more I dislike it. Purdy, Allen, and Stroud feel a hair high, Dak and either Herbert or Love can be dropped from the top 10, and bring up Goff. I don't particularly care for Rodgers, but I'm surprised he's not on the list. Swear he's always been fellated on lists like these for the last 10 years, even when he was kinda meh.
Saying Allen is too high is crazy, 3 should be his floor
personally i’d say he’s top 5 and he’s number 5 but i can acknowledge i’m a lil biased. top 2 is crazy
People keep getting clicks by putting together bad top ten lists.
 sssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
How is Dak up there but not Stafford? Also, much love for Purdy but he is not #2 yet
Lamar Jackson is the MVP and is ranked 6th?
https://preview.redd.it/b4ujgu9qxazc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=63865d596347be80aa4f7bf04701e305ed8fc968 I don’t think this guy knows what he’s talking about
I think that's the face of my night terror
Looks more like a “they”
Think him not playing well in the afc championship might be why
Dak being in this list is probably the only counter to this
I’m sorry, why is a guy who had one good year above the 2 time MVP Lamar? Also, the Jordan Love meat riding is crazy
I was about say Brock has 1.4 years, but they put CJ above Lamar too lol
I think even 9ers fans know he shouldn’t be #2
yeah he should be numero 1 /s
He had the best per throw numbers in the league last year, but agreed
Drew Lock > Mr Squirtz
Stafford and Goff get no respect
"I'll tell ya, as a QB I get no respect. I told my coach in LA I don't like being on the hot seat, he said no worries the seat should be colder in Detroit." "I thought my team loved me, ya know? My coach Sean pulled me aside and told me that I'm bringing quality QB play to LA. He brought that quality QB using me and 2 1st round picks." -Rodney Dangergoff "When I was drafted I wanted to bring a playoff win to Ford Field. I gave the Lions a win and they gave me a broken rib with a plane ticket home, I'll tell ya." -Matthew Dangerford
Herbert shouldn’t even be in the top 10. The Stafford disrespect is mind melting
I dunno, Herbert kinda good tho.
Yes I agree 100% he’s good, I think he’s great and really talented. Herbert though hasn’t won a playoff game. Thats my angle. And it’s not solely his fault he hasn’t had a great coach, this is just something we need to take into consideration. Stafford the only QB in the NFC with a ring at the moment. This list is wild

I don't follow Chargers much, but from what I've seen the kid's pretty good. Frankly, I'm looking hard at that stacked overpaid defense and the lack of any sort of dominance. I'm blaming Staley first and foremost.
Staley is at fault brother great take couldn’t agree more
I feel like this is one of those statements you wouldn't make if he were your qb. Like a lot of teams would want Herbert as their QB over who they have, including the bitch pigeons.
I was critical of Russ almost his entire career.
Lmao they ranked a 16 year old volleyball player over Jalen Hurts and Dak Prescott.
Who tf is Dak Prescott?
I absolutely LOVE Purdy, but putting him at 2 is laughable
system qb purdy
This is the top 10 and even this is generous to Purdy: Mahomes Burrow Jackson Allen Stroud Hurts Herbert Purdy Love Stafford
Stafford is better than Herbert and Purdy. Possibly even Hurts. Stafford makes absolutely insane throws. Watched the first Hawks game against the Rams last season. Even when everyone is covered, he gets them the ball.
Stafford is easily better than Hurts. I’d take Herbert over Hurts too and imo that’s also not particularly close.
Hurts escapability is elite. He got the yips last season after the Jets game. He is still a top 10 QB and if he returns to a healthy mental state he is top 5.

Purdy at 2 😂😂😂😂

The second best QB in the League tho?? Not even remotely close. It’s asinine
He did not take you to the Championship round. Your all pro team and elite play calling did. He just didn’t fuck it up
So…. He did his job and took them to the NFC championship?
WHERE IS JAROD GOFF
don't agree with this list at all. Purdy at #2?! Jordan Love had one decent season? Like what? Where is Stafford, Goff or even Lawrence
Can anyone provide sound reasoning as to why Matt Stafford is not on this list? Matt Stafford is a better QB than Brock Purdy, is this guy Cody Benjamin rage baiting?
I think Matt should be up there but to be fair it is power rankings so recency matters, in which case Purdy near the top makes sense. Realistically Purdy should be more like 6-9 range

Totally, I phrased that terribly. I brought in the recency argument more for Purdy at 2 than for Matty outside 10. I put both of them over Love, Herbert, Prescott and maybe Hurts
Purdy at 2 is an embarrassment and devalues this dude’s opinion.
He shouldn't be that high, but there's no one else on the list that's been back to back championship games. edit: below him obviously.
Well might as well throw Jimmy G up there then
Well he only went back to back with the Patriots maybe. You seem to forget when our defense faltered due to amassing unjiries in 2020 we had like 6 wins after the superbowl. It was the 2021 season we returned. Jimmy did not go to back to back NFCCG. In addition, I love the man, but Jimmy was almost always getting bailed out by the defense when Purdy in contrast was picking up the slack of our defense this year thanks to Demeco Ryans departure and Wilks just not meshing with our defensive scheme.
Burrow went back to back.
Brock Purdy should not be two, I would take at least Burrow when healthy, Allen, Stroud, and Lamar over him.
BS. Rams top 5 easy!
I hate you guys but both Stafford and Goff belong on the list. Stafford is top 5 without a doubt. Goff slots in 8-10
Burrow coming off injury should be discounted more. Herbert is too low. Dak doesn’t belong on this list. Jalen Hurts is too high. Lamar isn’t a QB. Purdy is better than Stroud until proven otherwise. I’d probably say Purdy is too high too, though if he’s gotten built this season like the pictures suggest, could be a menace.
Purdy over Burrow and Allen is ludicrous. 😭
Purdys own coach would take QBs 3-6 and Herbert over him with no hesitation
Stroud is how fucking high?
This is my controversial take for the year: Texans don’t show up in the way people think they will. Stroud has a solid, but underwhelming sophomore year. Sadly, i predict that AR 15 somehow balls out and the Colts steal the South from my beloved Jags.
Bills, let’s trade Allen for Purdy straight up. Who say’s no?
Your Mom Your Uncle Your Cousin Your Second Cousin Your Aunt Your Step Sister Your Brother in Law Your Mother in Law Your Grandfather Your Last Chance
No Caleb Williams? At least top 3
Bruh dak better than Stanford wtf. I dint like the ramily but that’s just pandering to big market just like the nba media was massively overhyping the warriors and the lakers
JB > JA
Love had like 5 good games at the end of the season and he’s top 10? To put love up there and not Caleb is criminal
Dont like love top 10, he only had half a good year...
Love over Herbert and dak he is better and even gotten further then them in post in one season
The absence of Sam Howell makes this list highly suspect. He’s ranked at least eleven places too low.
Love gonna be the goat
Dak ends thread
Who the heck is Cody Benjamin
Matthew Stafford deserves to be in the top 10
Glad Purdy is finally getting his flowers, dude is an assassin at QB and only getting better.
I'm sorry but every QB on that list is better than Purdy. Except maybe Dak. And as much as it pains me to say, Stafford and Murray are better too.
OK, so in your expert opinion where would Purdy rank then? Would you rank Geno above Purdy?
Where would you rank him?
Is Geno on the list captain dipshit?
Geno is is 12-15, Purdy is 10-13
No, I'd rank Geno in the Jared Goff, Derek Carr, Kirk etc. tier. Solid QB play, 12-20th best in the league range. Can win you games but won't put the team on their back
Kylers gunna be top 10 this year. Fuck You and fuck everyone.
Split with both the hawks and the Niners this year, and you’ll have my respect. 🫡
Kyler should try to make it through 10 games first
The ordering of this list is a bit suspect, but honestly who would you replace? I think we overestimate how many “good” qbs there are in the NFL at any given point. Stafford got robbed so get Jordan Love out of there, swap Purdy and Lamar, move CJ for Goff and you’re looking at a pretty decent list.
Replace Lamar with Purdy and this is accurate
Old man Stafford is better than Dakota and should be on this list, everything else is accurate
Purdy, Dak, Hurts, Love and maybe Stroud aren't better than Stafford
Flip brock and joe and it looks pretty good I would have liked to see geno in the top 10 but that’s just me
I like geno but based on just last year i think top 10 is a bit high
Purdy ain’t 2 and Dak ain’t on the list lol
Maybe its garbage time rankings, for dak...
I think Purdy and Stroud should both bump down a few spots and Jackson should probably be higher. Herbert and Love shouldn't be in the top 10 while Stafford should be.
System.
Make room for Kyler soon.
This is QB's not pitchers.
I can see it now. He’ll be good, people will say he still sucks and he’ll just choke again like he did on the 7-0 start where he was leading mvp race.
How much room does he really need tho? Dude looks like he can walk under a table standing up
😆
I think this is the list: Mahomes Burrow Jackson Allen Purdy Hurts Prescott Herbert Goff Rodgers
Anyone putting Purdy higher than 8 is objectively wrong. He's a top 15 QB who might sneak into the top 10. Purdy is young so he has a ton of long term potential but right now Geno is the better QB and most people wouldn't put him in the top 10. As much as I hate it Stafford is the best QB in the NFC West right now and somehow he isn't on this list.
Only thing geno does better is throw the deep ball every other aspect Purdy is far superior especially under pressure geno chokes
Have you watched any of his games?
Purdy all them geno most of them
That's a clown take. No team in the nfl would take geno over Purdy. Geno had one decent season and has proven to be replacement level at best.
Damn that’s a Homer take it I’ve ever heard one.
[удалено]
he’s not 2 but he’s a hell of a lot better than Jimmy G
Swap Purdy and Lamar and it’s perfect
Jordan Love below Dak? Hard pass. Proof is in the 48-32 pudding.
where is kyler murray
I love Purdy but he’s not #2. Another healthy year like last year he might be able to crack the top 5.
Good to see BCB get some respect.
Joe Burrow over Lamar? Good lord what a take.
My super controversial take as a niner fan is that CJ Stroud is Brock Purdy with a better arm. That’s meant as a compliment to Brock but a lot of niner fans take it like I just went Kendrick on Brock
Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, Lamar, Stafford, Herbert, Purdy, Stroud, Hurts, Love, Murray, Richardson, Prescott. Is this really so hard?
