Ranking the remaining QBs

[bileever]

This is my ranking of the QBs left in the playoffs. I know Stafford's had an MVP year, but Allen is just a difference-maker. Drake Maye is surprisingly good, and as much as I hate to say it, Purdy's been pretty good this season.



What's your list?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Too tough to even make a list. I wanna' say Allen, but Stafford is really really good.

 

[chris98251]

Hard to make a list when they all of them are asked to play a certain way given the opponent or allowed to.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Love me some Josh Allen though. And it's not like the Bills have a bunch of great receivers.

Stafford is great, but Allen is phenomenal. Allen can make every throw that Stafford can. Stafford can't take over a game by himself the way Allen can.

If Allen had McVay in his ear, he would be very very hard to beat.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

No doubt. Allen would kill it on that team. He does what he does w/a pretty weak set of WR's. At least compared to a lot of QBs.

Purdy and Stroud over Allen and Stafford? Hmmmmm

 

[Ozzy]

I’ve been a huge Purdy fan on this site but now have Darnold above him. Darnold has now won multiple big games that mattered late in the year and played a valuable role in those games. Maye hasn't done anything yet, Nix hasn't done anything yet. Williams could climb way up this list too as I think he's a player who will be big in key moments.

Allen
Stafford
Darnold
Purdy
Williams
Maye
Nix
Stroud

Thanks, Oz, this will be a fun read.............

If "winning multiple big games that mattered late in the year" matters to you, then why do you have the guy who has won in the playoffs every year he has been in the league last? These rankings don't seem consistent.

Really? Stroud played well last night, but he was playing against a questionable defense. I agree Purdy, Allen and Stafford have proved themselves in the post-season but Stroud is 2-2.

 

[Ozzy]

Stroud had 3-4 turnovers last night didn't he? I do like that moved past his mistakes and played well down the stretch though for sure which shows you something. But I still have almost everyone else ahead of him. This playoff cycle will tell us a lot about all of these guys. It's an interesting mix.

Stroud played well with 3-4 turnovers last night? He made a few big plays but generally was not good. He is being carried by that defense.

Byron Murphy and DK Dropcalf is great... nuff said.

As opposed to Darnold, who carries the corpses of a bottom-tier defense and doesn't lead the league in turnovers, right?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Dear god.........why does EVERY thread become Darnold sucks? Seriously

I suppose, but seems like that was the case for Darnold in a number of his "big wins" and you have him third, despite not having Stroud's history of success in the playoffs.

He doesn't suck. That wasn't my point. I just see people excusing him for things that others get judged harshly for.

Not sure why bringing up other things I was right about makes sense, but I'm ok with that.
