Quarterback Rankings
#1 -
@Peyton
Analysis: Some will argue that wins directly reflect the skill of the QB. If that was the case then this list would be backwards. Take for example: Funtastik won more games than me in both CSFL3 and CSFL4. My CSFL4 stats were an anomaly yet were virtually identical to that of Funtastik even though he had won 3 more games. My CSFL3 stats were far greater than Funtastik's and a little better than Brady's yet I won less games. I'm not taking CSFL3 into account for the rankings, the point I'm making is that each QB also plays defense, unlike in the NFL, which too impacts the final score for better or for worse.
NFL Comparison: Peyton Manning/Aaron Rodgers

@Funtastik
Analysis: Has a great understanding of the position which allows him to read the defense and process information quickly. Displays the ability to manipulate the defense and the pass rush. Misses few opportunities and possesses the best deep ball in the game.
Potential: #1 - At this point, reaching the top for any QB is dependent on my consistency.
NFL Comparison: Andrew Luck/Tom Brady
#3 -
@Tom Brady
Analysis: Capable of putting up points in bunches. Gets the most out of each player. Proved that he can win without yellow while winning a playoff game at the same time. He's well-rounded at each aspect of the game.
Potential: #1 - His lack of consistent play time holds him back. Tends to lock-in on primary target when calling plays. His accuracy and decision making decreases dramatically when forced to go through progressions.
NFL Comparison: Drew Brees/Tony Romo

@kc21
Analysis: The most elusive player at the position with an innovative strafe-mod throw that is hard to defend. His ability to scramble and rush keeps the defense guessing. Quick and effective footwork combined with his short accuracy has proven difficult to stop.
Potential: #1 - A game manager at the QB position. Lacks touch on deep passes that the aforementioned QBs possess. His style of play is reliant on having a good defense and playing with a lead - both were present in CSFL4 so the question remains if he can complete the deep pass when necessary and rally a team back when trailing.
NFL Comparison: Alex Smith/Russell Wilson

My rankings are based on performance in calendar year 2016, which includes CSFL. I will only rank active players that participate in PUGs and are effective. I understand that I may offend some so if you disagree feel free to argue in a civil matter and try to be concise. I'll release rankings by positions on a daily basis and conclude with overall rankings on the final day.
