ESPN NFL Players Poll on QBs: Josh Allen, Brock Purdy, Jalen Hurts, & Tua Taigovailoa divide the league

[Madmick]

I'm a little late since this came out five days ago, but 103 NFL players were surveyed for the poll:

QB confidential: GOAT? Most overrated? Best rookie? 103 players weigh in on NFL signal-callers

Who are the top three QBs in the NFL? Who's the biggest trash talker? Here's what their peers say.

www.espn.com

Best QB

• 1. Patrick Mahomes: (291)
• 2. Lamar Jackson: (124)
• 3. Joe Burrow: (51)
• 4. Josh Allen (39)
• 5. Aaron Rodgers (32)

Most Overrated Quarterbacks

• 1. Josh Allen (11)
• 2. Jalen Hurts (10)
• 2. Tua Tagovailoa (10)
• 4. Justin Herbert (9)
• 5. Trevor Lawrence (8)
• 6. Deshaun Watson (7)
• 7. Kyler Murray (6)
• 7. Brock Purdy (6)

Most Underrated Quarterbacks

• 1. Brock Purdy (14)
• 1. Matthew Stafford (14)
• 3. Kirk Cousins (7)
• 3. Jared Goff (7)
• 3. Jordan Love (7)
• 3. Bryce Young (7)
• 7. Justin Herbert (6)
• 8. Dak Prescott (4)
• 8. Lamar Jackson (4)
• 8. Jalen Hurts (4)
• 8. Tua Tagovailoa (4)

Lamar Jackson is the only player to make the Top QB list and the most underrated list. So players are roundly impressed with him.

Meanwhile, Allen makes the Top QB list at #4, but also tops the most overrated list.

Brock Purdy, Jalen Hurts, and Tua Taigovailoa all make both the overrated and underrated lists, but the vote split is far more favorable for Brock (6 overrated vs. 14 underrated) than for either Hurts or Taigovailoa (both got 10 overrated vs. 4 underrated). As Broussard from the roundtable of blabbering jackasses below reminds everyone, this is no small feat for Brock, as he is tied as the most underrated QB in the league despite finishing at #8 in this poll for the best quarterback vote, and was the #4 MVP vote-getter last season.

I am a bit surprised that Burrow makes #3 on the Best QB vote, but doesn't make the most underrated list. I guess that's because he got so much love at the pundit halftime discussion tables even when he had piss poor numbers this last season. But the playing-through-injury grace period won't last forever. His reputation has a lot at stake in the upcoming season.

But nobody has as much at stake as Brock.




The debate rages on: awaits the season.

*Edit*
Also, separately, in another player poll conducted this summer by the NFL itself, here was the breakdown of top QBs:

The 124 points for Lamar were from players who thought they were asking for the best RB in the league. An honest mistake.

Soccer is gay porn disguised as a sport, but you don't realize it because you're only accustomed to third world masculinity.

I would be embarrassed to say something like this but Americans don't have shame that is why they have so high encarsaration of players of all 3 sports. I mean did I ever wrote cock or grabbing at all on this sites while you guys for some reason enjoy talking g about cocks and gays and man it is crazy.it is what it is but it is weird to get so much into it when you try to attempt to make somebody something g

I love football - world footbul, futbol, footy, whatever you want to call it. America itself had a respectable football heritage in the early 1990s and even finished 4th at the first ever world cup. the Great Depression put an end to that though

but, as an American I also have a respect for American football. yeah, not the touching ass part or the tight as pants. but the quarter back position? it doesn't sound like you understand the natural athleticism it takes to effectively throw a football. it's a genuine, natural thing that cannot be taught. some people just have a natural throwing arm.

American sports are big on the throwing arms - talking about American football and baseball.

There is not athletic about qb or nfl. It is most unathletic sport there is fattest yes somewhat explosive strength in some position but nothing to brag about yes but athletic sport hell no. Qb are least athletic people and like i said before discus thrower or javelin have stronger arm and accuracy

People don't realize Americans loved soccer when it was 5-3-2. 5-3-2 soccer was fun af. So much scoring.

"QB are least athletic people"

no. just a different kind of athleticism. and the most natural kind of athleticism there is at that. the only people that say quarterbacks are "not athletic", are the kinds of people that have never seriously thrown a ball in their lives. like most Europeans because you don't have throw heavy sports - whereas Americans have two (American football and baseball). many Americans grow up throwing a ball; thus, Americans understand the genetic gifts it takes to throw powerfully.

I was talking about soccer in the early 1900s; soccer was big in America then because all the immigrants from England, Scotland, Ireland, Portugal, etc. brought it with them to America.

Thats what I was talking about too. That was 5-3-2 time. Its a formation with 5 guys forward. In later 20th century it inverted to where theres 5 defenders and 1-2 strikers. Thats why soccer is as boring as it is.

I see

Either way I don't find soccer boring at all. It's about the chess match, getting momentum, stringing passes together and slowly but surely breaking the other team down; and even if the goals never come it is still a soothing thing for the mind to watch that game. really it might be the most relaxing and soothing sport to watch; Americans just don't appreciate it for what it is though

In fact i've even heard Americans say they would enjoy soccer a lot more if their was no offsides rule; they just want constant fast breaks and constant scoring. they don't realize that that would ruin the game; but it's all about quick scoring to them.

Offsides rule would be more exteme than 5-3-2 which did have onsides rule. But they are just thinking of ways to tweak the rules in favor of offense instead of formation.

But yeah theres a whole group of dead people who could argue the current soccer you're afraid of ruining ruined soccer for them. What soccer is today isn't what soccer is and always has been its to optimize results for the lesser team. Digging in to get a 0-0 draw and maybe scoring a 1-0 win is what makes the most sense in non lopsided matchups too when you get a point for a draw. Its not entertaining its there because thats what makes sense for those on the field trying to win.

Watching soccer passes with nothing happening is an infuriating experience IMO even when your team is up 1-0 you're looking at the clock counting down.

Like I said least athletic sport nfl fattest yes most stop and go yes most uninteresting play selections and plays in general yes but exiting no. Qb least athletic of them all people were throwing spears since Hunter gatherers and if you watch handball you would see what speed and accuracy in hand throwing is. Trust me rest of the world have sports that play hand and ball coordination sports and qb are least athletic ones
