Is Aaron Brooks a good quarterback or a sorry quarterback?

Sorry quarterback, he had one decent season in New Orleans and then spent the rest of the time showing why intelligence and focus are the two most important traits in an NFL quarter back.

There's a lot of great quarterbacks, but I think John Elway is the best as well. He didn't have a Jerry Rice or anybody really. His arm alone took the Broncos to 3 Super Bowls, before he got a running game with Terrell Davis or a good defense. To start in 5 Super Bowls has to help.

Hasselbeck plays at home against a weak GB secondary.  Rivers faces an Oakland pass defense that is actually quite underrated.  Plus there is the whole LT domination factor.  I'd definitely go with Hasselbeck even though it's his first game back in a while.

It may have been Troy Smith's worst performance, but if a qb's worst performance included over 500 yards offense-over 330 yards passing and 4 tds against the No.2 defense in the nation as well as the second ranked team in the nation I would say nobody else would come close to even being considered. \n\nYou might focus on a couple mistakes but the rest of us have seen the results over an 11 game span.

Unless Houston selects the offensive tackle Ferguson(which is unlikely), the Saints should take Vince Young. Aaron Brooks has not shown he can be a good starter, even with good wideouts.

Vick, McNabb, Culpepper, Brees and McNair have no right to be lumped with Brady, Favre and Manning. \n\nThe EASY answer is Manning, hands down.\n\nVick is seriously over rated as a QB. He cannot stay healthy and will NEVER be a top QB. He should move to flanker now.\n\nBrees has had two good years and is a good QB. \n\nCulpepper showed what he was made of last year.\n\nMcNair is a warrior who is a very good QB but not worthy of consideration here and not even when he WAS in his prime.\n\nFavre, one of the GREAT ones whose time has passed.\n\nMcNabb - no thanks\n\nBrady - Just Win Baby - a true leader but still a notch below Manning\n\nBetter than some of the ones you listed: Palmer (as stated above) and Hasselbeck are the future of the NFL.

Steelers are my team however best of the class at least for this year is LT the combo between Rivers and LT has not missed a beat even though Brees is no longer there....With Bens slow start Parker was sure to struggle with the 8 and sometimes 9 man fronts...last I would say Barber and Manning I do not care how much the team says his early announcement of retirement does not affect them

He is a better passer than Vick. He will remain a QB, as he has matured as a Passer. He doesn't cut and run because the one receiver he wants is covered. Instead he goes through all of his receivers, if none are open then he runs. This year he has become a true QB.

I like Big Ben's heart, but he should just sit out for the whole season, before something bad may happen...he is a great QB, but he's been getting to many head shots...now this is football, but remember, he did hurt his head in that motorcycle crash, so then I woulda sat him out...Big Ben should just wait til next year, and Charlie Batch is a good QB too...I just hope Ben don't get hurt this year...if so, this could hurt his career.

Not a Charger fan, but if you ask me they are taking a huge risk with an unproven QB and a team that is otherwise a superbowl contender. Ask the Bills how starting  former 1st round pick JP Losman worked out for them this year (and yes I know the chargers are more talented than the Bills). I think you only have limited windows to win a super Bowl in the NFL. I think you ultimately will regret losing an opportunity by not going with your best option at QB. I wasn't a huge fan of Rivers coming out of NC, and I wouldn't hold too high of a hope for him this year. The Chargers do have a ton of weapons though so maybe he is able to effectively manage the offense. Heck come to think of it they didn't even make the playoffs with Brees this past season...

Brady doesn't have the physical tools and talent that Favre has. He doesn't have a cannon for an arm, and he doesn't have the strength to force plays like Favre can. That being said, Brady is a much smarter QB than Favre, for exactly those reasons. He DOESN'T try to force plays. Favre got away with the gunslinger crap when he was younger and when he had upper-level receivers, but it's been his downfall for the last few years. Favre makes a lot of costly mistakes trying to thread passes into heavy coverage, and it ends up leading to a lot of INT's and has cost the Packers more than a couple games. Brady doesn't make those mistakes. He is consistent and spreads the ball around much better than Favre does (which is why NE's receivers suck for fantasy football). He recognizes that you can't make something happen on every play, and that sometimes it's better to just throw it away or take the 2 or 3 yard dump route. It's too early to say that Brady is better than Favre, but I think he's on track to be. By the way, I hate both teams so I have no personal stake in any of this.

whoa now his pops didnt throw those TDs passes..his pops isnt in the playoffs...qb's son do have potential...Mannings why not the simms...your daddy can only get you so far...

Not so sure yet. They guy has won 75% of the games he has started for Denver.  Denver at 7-4 is still in the thick of a playoff run.  I don't see Shanahan basically giving up on the season yet and throwing in a completely untested rookie QB.  Plummer stays the starting QB for now.

I hope he isn't. he was the greatest qb of his time...perhaps from all times. i don't wanna see'im hurt. pls DON'T

Rivers QB rating is the best in the league when playing Away. His rating is 103.9. So I don't think that will be a factor. I think they both will be pretty even here, however, I would go will Rivers because he has started more games and has proven that he can be consistent.

Hello fellow member of the Raider Nation.  Frankly, I'm disappointed.  How can you pass up your franchise QB in Matt Leinart?!?!?! WTF!!!  Michael Huff may be a hard hitter, but he's not going to bring the organization out of extinction.  Now Aaron Brooks is our QB.  Its going to be a rough year, but hang in there.\n\nJust Win Baby!\n\nP.S. "Jet" can go f*ck himself.

i think that leinart is a great quarterback and has the potential to excel in the nfl, especially with weapons on the offence such as boldin, fitzgerald and james. the "hot" part of the question is up to the girls.
