Looks good to me.. But I think Dak falls into 10-15 range

I like tiers..
Tier 1= Mahomes, Brady, Rodgers
Tier 2= Stafford, Allen, Burrow, Wilson, Herbert, Jackson
Tier 3= Dak, Murray, Carr, Tannyhill, Cousins

At least he has Jackson below Dak. Jackson may not even be top 10. And he doesn't have Murray in the top 10, which is good. I question Wilson being that high also. Not sure if I would have him below Dak or not though.

His top 10 are:

10. Lamar Jackson (BAL)
9. Dak Prescott (DAL)
8. Tom Brady (TB)
7. Russell Wilson (DEN)
6. Matthew Stafford (LAR)
5. Aaron Rodgers (GB)
4. Joe Burrow (CIN)
3. Justin Herbert (LA)
2. Patrick Mahomes (KC)
1. Josh Allen (BUF)
Wait a minute! I mentioned Josh Allen was better than Dak a couple years ago. I was told by many Cowboy fans on this form Josh Allen was garbage right before he destroyed Dallas on Thanksgiving.

I'm still confused every time I see a list with Dak and Cousins separated by more than a couple spots.

He has Dak 7 spots higher than Cousins.

I wish someone would explain to me exactly what makes Dak 7 spots better than Cousins if they agree with Simms rankings.

I mean look at their numbers and what they have lead their teams to ... If you look at those things then best case scenario is they're basically the same QB. Although if you did a blind look at both guys, and showed them to a casual fan as QB:A and QB:B, and that fan knows enough about football to make an educated decision, then 9/10 would say Cousins overall resume looks better.

Another year or two and Justin Herbert will be #1.

I think it's going to be a tight race amongst the young guns over the next 5 years. He certainly seems poised to stake a legitimate claim though. Some of his throws last year were just .... jaw dropping.

Depends on the criteria. Is it purely on-field ability or does it include leadership and being a 'winner'.

Aaron Rodgers in only #5 if the lack of leadership and not really being a 'winner' type personality is included.
- With that criteria, Dak should be ranked higher.
- Obviously, with that criteria, Brady would be #1.
