Best Quarterbacks Ever Hierarchy
Best Quarterbacks Ever Hierarchy
These are the best Quarterbacks ever ranked according to tiers. This list is based off the overall talent and career accomplishments. To no surprise the first 3 tiers include the players that I include on my top 10 Quarterbacks ever list. Every tier includes a player with the Quarterback seasons of all-time.
Tier 1:
From left to right: Joe Montana, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady.
I think you can make a case for any of these players being the #1 guy with Tom Brady being the GOAT in my mind.
Tier 2:
From left to right: Drew Brees, Johnny Unitas and Dan Marino.
Drew Brees continues to climb higher and higher in the record books. Johnny Unitas is a pioneer to the position. Dan Marino is the best player to never win a Super Bowl.
Tier 3:
From left to right: Brett Favre, Otto Graham, John Elway and Roger Staubach.
This is where cutoffs begin for the top 10 and I feel like each of these guys deserve a spot. Otto Graham is too slept on as one of the most winning QBs ever.
Tier 4:
From left to right: Kurt Warner, Terry Bradshaw, Bart Starr, Aaron Rodgers and Steve Young.
A lot of championships in this tier. Again, you can make a case for any of these guys being in the top 10. Aaron Rodgers to me was on pace to become a top 5 QB ever, but has cooled down these past couple of seasons.
Tier 5:
From left to right: Jim Kelly, Fran Tarkenton, Russell Wilson, Troy Aikman, Warren Moon and Ben Roethlisberger.
I wouldn’t include any of these players in my top 10, but Russell Wilson continues to climb. Fran Tarkenton and Warren Moon are both top 10 running Quarterbacks ever. Big Ben would have to dominate in the final years of his career to make a case.
