2010 NFL Quarterback Rankings

Peyton Manning Trophy
Peyton “The Man”-ning

I have fun watching football each season, and I’m sure some of you do too. Just wanted to point out that ESPN has a 2010 Quarterback Rankings article up. At the end of the article you can rank the quarterbacks yourself.

For those who feel inclined, go ahead an comment on the ESPN post and let me know who you think the best quarterbacks are. Here, I’ll post my completely unresearched full rankings from what I can remember about last year and the 2010 preseason off the top of my head.

The Project Swole 2010 NFL Quarterback Rankings

  1. Peyton Manning, Indianapolis Colts

    I’m a Patriots fan but I can’t dispute that Peyton is probably the best NFL quarterback to ever play the game. I’m sure he’ll win at least one or two more Superbowls before he’s done. This year his team is even better than last year, if that’s possible. I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t toss 40+ touchdowns and win nearly every game in 2010.

Steelers and Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII

Monday, January 19th, 2009

Oh man, how did the Cardinals make it to the Super Bowl? No one saw that coming about 3 weeks ago, or even last week. After all, the Cardinals finished the regular season by losing 4 of 6, one loss was 47-7 to the Patriots, with a final regular season record of 8-8.

Swole on Super Bowl XLIII – Take 2

Tuesday, January 6th, 2009

After a Surprising Week 1 of the Post Season I Have to Ask…

Now Who Will Make it to Super Bowl XLIII?

This is an update from my first Super Bowl XLIII prediction.

Carolina Panthers
Carolina Panthers
  • Titans - they’ve been pretty good all year but I believe their offense could be shut down by either the Colts or the Steelers in the AFC Championship game the Ravens in Week 2 of the Playoffs. They may have peaked earlier in the season and Kerry Collins is WAY overrated right now. He will be out of the NFL again by 2010.
  • Steelers - I could see the Steelers advancing to the Super Bowl as long as they don’t play the Colts in the AFC Championship game. Ben Roethelisberger can stay healthy. QB concussions in the NFL do not bode well for future play. Assuming he’s healthy, this team is probably headed for Tampa.

Swole on Brett Favre and Super Bowl XLIII

Brett ‘Rat Fink’ Favre

Public Enemy #1 aka Brett Favre has successfully thwarted the Patriots attempts to make it into the playoffs this year. Thank you Brett for throwing 3 pics and completing only 50% of your passes.

So many little things could have gone differently, and the Patriots would be in the playoffs.

These four events come to mind first:

  • If the coin flip in the overtime game versus the Jets had gone to the Patriots, New England would be in the playoffs.

Florida Gators vs. Alabama Crimson Tide

Sunday, November 23rd, 2008

Please tell me, how did Florida lose that game to Mississippi?

Tim Tebow
Tim Tebow

On September 27, 2008, the Florida Gators (10-1) lost 31 – 30 to Eli Manning’s college team Ole Miss (7-4), but if they had not lost that game they would probably be #1 or #2 in the nation and they would definitely have an 11-0 record rather than 10-1.

Update: my bad, Florida is currently ranked #2 in the AP polls as of Sunday 11/23.

I mean Tim Tebow passed for 319 yards and one touchdown, and he rushed for another 2 touchdowns. Apparently the offense took the first and third quarters off, and the defense basically took the whole game off.
