Eight NFL playoff teams left, rate the quarterbacks from best to worst

Pretty straightforward question, inspired by an article in cnnsi.com. Of the 8 remaining starting quarterbacks, how do you rate them in comparison to one another? Do you think Peyton doesn't deserve to be #1, and instead that honor should go to Marc Bulger? Think Vick is overrated, or that Pennington is completely overlooked? Well here's your chance. The candidates (here in alphabetical order):

Tom Brady (Patriots)

Marc Bulger (Rams)

Culpepper (Vikings)

Manning (Colts)

McNabb (Eagles)

Pennington (Jets)

Roethlisberger (Steelers)

Vick (Falcons)



My order: Manning, McNabb, Brady, Vick, Pennington, Culpepper, Roethlisberger, Bulger.

GREAT Poll

Roethlisberger 2nd to last?

 
QB skill only, disregarding if their team will win more with them or not, mine is:

Manning, Vick and then the rest of the crap. Really, Culpepper/McNabb are garbage, and the rest are very mediocre on great teams.

Uh yeah, ok...so you're saying that if you had the choice of any of the above QB's to take the Jets to the Superbowl and win, you'd take Pennington? While he's no slouch, he can't come close to touching most of the guys on that list.



 
Vick by far


Manning is good, but if manning does not show up the colts still have a good chance, but if Vick does not show up then.... Thats the difference between a good team and a great player.

you'll probably b the one person that votes him #1
 
Official poll added.

Roethlisberger 2nd to last?

Mainly due to lack of history to evaluate him since he's a rookie. He hasn't ever played a playoff game before so I can't see putting him higher at this point. He's done very well for himself so far, but that's regular season. Once we've seen how he performs in a pressure situation I'll be happy to reevaluate, and I probably will move him quite a few notches higher.

Also because Rothlesberger inherited a good team. Not taking anything away from him, he is a good quarterback and with time to mature he could be one of the best in the leage, but it's a lot easier to win when you've got a solid team behind you.

brady and mcnabb could be argued as better than vick.

Good team but there were lots of good teams at the start of this year.
The Steelers are #1

I voted him as #2 for that reason alone, yes it is his 1st year, I voted on the 2004 season.

Manning is #1 by far.
 
A couple of years ago we had this same type of poll, and I said at that time that Manning would go down as the greatest QB of all time. I still make the same prediction. Manning will break every QB record there is. I predict sadly that Vick's career will be plagued with injuries.......

Hmmm, that same year I predicted that the Steelers would get a rookie and win it all.

 

Manning > McNabb > Brady > Culpepper > Vick > Pennington >Bulger > Rotheslberger (Simply because of history)
 
Vick is the most overrated player in the entire league!!!! Look at the falcons O, 20th in the NFL. Vick is the 21st rated passer in the NFL. He is an exciting player to watch, but he is not a great quarterback!

The reason that atlanta is where it is now is because of its defense not Vick!
