It’s a weird time in the NFL. When the conversation arose about who the best quarterback in the NFL was, for nearly the past 20 years, it often came down to a heated Peyton Manning against Tom Brady argument. Aaron Rodgers and his insane dislike of throwing interceptions would enter the mix, Andrew Luck and his rising star power would find his name in the conversation and Drew Brees is, well, Drew Brees.
It’s a different day. Manning is retired. Brady is likely missing four games this season. Luck is a huge question mark in how — and if — he will bounce back from injury with a much less talented roster than he once had. Rodgers is coming off arguably his worst season of his career. And Drew Brees is, well, Drew Brees. He’s 37-years old and at some point, you have to think he’s going to lose it, right?
So in this day and age, where Blake Bortles is already entering the debate of the Top Ten QBs in football, who is numero uno?
