    Brady
    Manning
    Rodgers
    Brees
    Luck
    Big Ben
    Russ Wilson
    Stafford
    Eli Manning (Super Bowls put him above)
    Andy Dalton (based on them both going to the playoffs the same amount of times but AD being in the league only half the time. I'll take winning over Romos stats any day of the week)
    Bonus: I'd throw in Cam Newton too if we're talking Chip Kelly's offense

    Edit: and yea there's probably some Eagles bias in there that no matter how hard I try to think sort of more fair about it I can't.

    Edit 2: replace Dalton with Rivers

    We need more sports posters. Almost nfl post season and there's barely any hype. Half of the posters will be gone from here anyways once the cowboys lose their first post season game (lol jk maybe they won't.)

    So the pro bowl rosters were announced, it's on NFL.com if you're curious to see it.

    No Vikings made it lol, that's pretty bad. I'd say Harrison Smith and Everson Griffen probably deserved to make it but I guess there's a lot of good players. Apparently the Giants, Titans and Jags also didn't have any players make the roster.

    I don't care about the actual game and never have but it's still interesting to see which players make the team every year.

    Deandre Levy being left out AGAIN is ridiculous. The Pro Bowl is a joke, I agree with that, but it still should be giving credit where due, and Levy should be recognized on the roster.

    Pro Bowl is a glorified popularity contest, nothing more.

    A lot of games this week that determine playoff birth and seedings. Seems like every season the NFL gets the right games in the last week. Almost like they scripted it....

    They pre plan every nfl season and they script most games. They give teams who they want to see do good easy schedules like the cowboys this year. Look into it.

    Yeah I know. I was saying that in a sarcastic way lol. I love football but theres too many coincidences and missed calls along the way to not believe its scripted. But I still watch cause it entertains me. Its like my WWE.

    Yea I'm sure the NFL scripted it's biggest game of the year, which draws in many non football watchers, to be noncompetitive 10 minutes into the game.

    MLB, NBA, college sports, boxing have all had scandals and s---. Why would the NFL be any different. I wish the NFL and all sports were pure and clean but I find it d--- near impossible for that to be the case. League will get the teams and games they want, to get the stories that will bring the league the most money. There's billions and billions of dollars we're talking about here. I don't believe that leagues will leave the most profitable situation up to the players.

    But I'm still a fan and still root for my favorite teams, go to games, and purchase licensed apparel lol.
