Who the heck is this guy? Patrick Mahomes the 6th best QB in the league?
 
I came across this article after listening to the local sports program where they were talking about Trevor Lawrence....

Sometimes you just wonder what people are thinking other than, " can I create clickbait" when they put up crap like this.

Post-draft NFL QB Power Rankings
1 Jayden Daniels
Washington Commanders QB
Recency bias? Sure. But you'd be hard-pressed to find an NFL team that wouldn't hurry to claim him as its quarterback of the present and future, contenders included. He was simply unflappable for much of his dynamic debut, which ended on the doorstep of the Super Bowl . A second-year dip is possible, but who says Daniels won't keep climbing with some added veteran help in D.C.?

2 Jalen Hurts
Philadelphia Eagles QB
He was frequently and often unfairly knocked for holding more of a background role during much of the Eagles ' Super Bowl run, but what more can you ask of this man when the lights shine brightest? His title campaign may have proved he's best suited as a selective rather than high-volume passer, but his instincts, toughness, downfield touch and rugged mobility all show up in the clutch.

3 Joe Burrow
Cincinnati Bengals QB
The Bengals are just 14-13 in his last two seasons of starts, so it's clear he can't do it all alone. Yet who else would you rather have for pure pocket passing? His poise and precision are dynamite.

4 Lamar Jackson
Baltimore Ravens QB
The playoff hurdles have yet to be fully cleared. That doesn't change the fact Jackson is a walking fireworks show, forever liable to change a game in a single play with his dual-threat electricity.

5 Josh Allen
Buffalo Bills QB
The reigning MVP is coming off his most efficient season while operating with a new-look receiving group. Like Lamar Jackson , another AFC superhero, he's just yet to escape the Chiefs ' shadow.

6 Patrick Mahomes
Kansas City Chiefs QB
Was Mahomes' ugly Super Bowl showing an anomaly, or clear evidence his increasing dependence on last-minute heroics isn't as sustainable as it once was for Kansas City? A healthier pass-catching corps should help, but his leaky O-line still has questions. There's no denying No. 15 is still the most trustworthy signal-caller in the game, but he's now proven vulnerable twice on the big stage.

Apparently it's better to lose in the divisional round to Josh allen or in the AFC champ game to Mahomes than lose in the SB.

Can't do that.

Take a quick look at the dude's profile pic, and that should tell you everything you need to know.

A literal clown in every sense of the word, probably has never even watched a pro football game.

Why would I wonder if they're thinking anything else.... of course it's clickbait.

To some extent I could see putting Jalen Hurts at #1 based on last year, and when the Chiefs beat Philly before it wasn't because he didn't give it his best effort.

But come on.....Jayden Daniels had a really good year but defensive coordinators will have had one year of tape to figure out how to make his sophomore year less pleasant. Remember how everyone was crowning C J Stroud to be the next great QB and how he slumped after everyone got tape on him.

And to put Burrow, Jackson and Allen in front of Mahomes? Come on, he is the brick wall all 3 of those guys have run into when they are trying to make it to the Super Bowl and none of them have the SB cred that Mahomes does already in his career.

What do you think?

They never learn. I've noticed a lot of the talk in sports media this off-season speaks as if the Chiefs' Dynasty is over. Not much discussion about how or why, they just assume it's over. The fools will never learn.

I mean, he was 8th in QBR last year. And 8th the year before. If we are talking about a SNAPSHOT of how good QBs are right now it is not terribly unreasonable.

Pitt Gorilla 05-08-2025 01:43 PM

Need more people ranking him similarly or lower. Petty Pat is best Pat.

They'll just hire any casual bundle of sticks fan to write about sports these days, huh?

The worst comic strip ever created was Zippy the Pinhead. It was never once clever or funny. I always wondered what Zippy did after it was finally flushed from circulation, and now we know. He's a sportswriter for CBS.

Yeah...I saw where Cowherd is already calling for the Chargers to win the AFC West....but didn't he do that last year too?

I know you like taking contrary positions, but this one is off the mark.

Seems everyone use to measure the QB's ranking by SB's won when Brady was active....now it is by Fantasy Stats.

Unreal what sports journalism has sunk to.
