Appreciate the votes so far. When we get a good number of votes I'll reveal the statistics the lists correspond to. Don't want to do that now because I'm afraid it'll contaminate the voting.

Josh McCown had the best total QBR in the league this season yet he is left off your list, therefore your list is incomplete.

Interested to see what you've got up your sleeve.

Interested to see what you've got up your sleeve.

Only the correlation between various QB statistics and the consensus perceptions of people who watch a great deal of the game.

Don't play coy, I've read too many of your posts to not assume you're somehow gonna find a way to push an agenda. Not saying it wont be fun to watch, but some posters are gonna get angry today when you unveil what is what and trap them, hahaha

He had fewer than 250 pass attempts, which was my cutoff in this.

If that's the way someone feels in this, I'd suggest he abstain from voting.

Well for me i don't care much about that. For the purpose of the post I went with a gut feeling, and never spent too much time analysing the data. I sort of eliminated a couple things here and there and came up with my pick.

And that sure sounds fine to me. The idea is to get enough votes so that the various individual approaches to analyzing the lists will gradually approach a consensus. There may be different approaches to analyzing the lists, but they may still yield a majority overall view.

Sorry, I didn't read the fine print.

Doesn't explain why Terrelle Pryor was left off though?

 

[AL R]

Went with 3 but considered 7

 

[Shouright]

Went with 3 bust considered 7

Thanks for your vote. Others may consider more than one list, as well, since there's so much overlap, but try to think through and identify the one you think best reflects individual regular season QB play in 2013.

 

[Whitedolphin54]

Well if I was to vote again I would go with list 7 :crazy:

Tough decision between 4, 5, and 6. I went with 6 but, there were arguments for each. I didnt care for Andy Dalton being ranked so highly, but any metric will have him pretty high. The guy was an odd case of a player who had some outstanding individual games mixed in with some real clunkers. His problem is you can expect the clunker games vs. good opponents or when the pressure is really on.

Question.....How much money would it take for you to remove the Tannehill nose picking picture and the damn Nick Saban picture? They remind me of those times when you are watching porn and you accidentally pull up some man on man action. I didn't want to see it but it's impossible to avoid all the time......and why is it that you have chosen those pictures? I don't get it. I really hate seeing them all the time. Hook a brutha up?
