He beat Burrows once and Brady twice last season. So, he has to be ahead of them. The other 3 are pretty darned special. Rogers is a first ballot HOF QB. Won a SB. Great stats and winning percentage for a long time. I am okay it's him being ranked #1. Mahomes is sort of amazing. He can throw from any position. He can run. He wins in the clutch. Has a Lombardi. I'm good with him at #2. Allen is a startling talent. Passing and running. Hasn't won the big one yet.
If I was drafting one of these guys right now I choose this guy for where he is at and because he's still young. But, right now, if I had to pick a guy from the list to be my playoff QB aside from AR and PM I choose Stafford. Most would select TB, but you have to remember that Brady officially lost several SBs, stole one from us and lucked into a gift one from the Seahawks. Stafford has won every Super Bowl he's been in.
See how context matters here? Anyway, just my three cents. Used to be two cents, but inflation...
