February 5, 200719 yr Author Maybe I should have qualified the question with 'QBs with at least one playoff win.'
February 5, 200719 yr Maybe I should have qualified the question with 'QBs with at least one playoff win.' Why? It's a better question without putting stipulations on it. Or is it just that obvious that Carson is the best without a Super Bowl ring right now?
February 5, 200719 yr Author It depends on whether or not you think Palmer is the best. What he did this past season doesn't move him to the front of the line IMO.
February 5, 200719 yr It depends on whether or not you think Palmer is the best. What he did this past season doesn't move him to the front of the line IMO. I can question them all...if I'm looking at a body of work, then I'd go with McNair. But, McNair isn't the player he was with the Titans a few years ago, IMO. Brees had the best year this year and he's had 2 or 3 successive seasons at a high level. Anyway, you could make a case for all of them. I'd rate them like this... 1. Palmer 2. Brees 3. McNabb 4. Hasselbeck 5. McNair My rankings are based on how good they are right now. If you want to go with a career, then McNair and McNabb would be my top 2, in that order.
February 5, 200719 yr 5-Wide's list looks good, but I will say Brees above Palmer... The others fall right in order.

There's no way that at this point I would consider Carson Palmer a better NFL QB than Donovan McNabb. McNabb has led his team to a superbowl, and to what, 3 NFL title games? 1.McNabb 2.McNair...

February 5, 200719 yr 1. McNair 2. Palmer 3. McNabb 4. Brees 5. Hasselbeck I picked McNair at #1 because he has been in the game a while and he doesn't have much more time to win a Superbowl. I think Palmer is the most talented quarterback out of this group, but he as well as McNabb, Brees, and possibly Hasselbeck have more time to win the Superbowl. I also kind of based it off of urgency for McNair.
February 5, 200719 yr Probably McNair just because he has done a lot and became so close. He is a really good quaterback and done a lot of good things he deserves one. Then Brees just because he has always been overlooked as one of the elite. He is a great quaterback probably the best in the NFC.
February 5, 200719 yr I understand why some may put Carson on the list, but the thread is more referring to QBs that have been around for 5+ years that have been normal starters... I would go with... 1) McNair 2) McNabb Only because of age... maybe?
February 6, 200719 yr I don't see Palmer winning one unless he gets out of Cincy and I don't see that happening. He will go down a the leader of the misfits.
