 His highest ranking to date. Though I think he's more like #2 or #3, 8th is not bad considering his injury and struggles in the 2nd half of the year.

 

 

Still a little low for my tastes but definitely reasonable.

I searched and couldnt find the top 10 list (perhaps because it aired today?). 

Diggs at #16 sounds fair

A-a-ron Donald at #11 is low

[julian]

The list is basically what QB went the furthest, Allen behind Mahomes, Hurts and Burrow.

 I agree.

 

 But......at the same time he keeps coming out on fire in his first 6-7 games and then has a late October-November slump. 3 years in a row now. 2020 & 2022 were at least in large part due to injuries, but 2021 was a combo of his poor play, Beasley's sudden decline & very poor play by the offensive line(Which didn't improve until Bates became the starter in the 2nd Pats game in December)

someone will surely correct me if I am wrong but yeah I think they air it first on NFLN and then it gets posted everywhere.

I’d can agree with Joey B since he did win the head to head but with all due respect Hurts isn’t in Josh Allen’s area code .
He’s a good QB but he’s more like the 6 or 7 best QB then the number 2 QB.

 And to further your point, Burrow behind Hurts & Mahomes.

 As @julianjust mentioned, the top #4 QBs are landing in the order they finished the playoffs. Allen, Burrow, Hurts and lastly Mahomes. Allen exited the playoffs first then Burrow, then Hurts and of course Mahomes was/is the champ.

Agree for now about Hurts but if he continues to improve (he made an immense jump from ‘21 to ‘22) he won’t just be in the same area code they’ll be neighbors. Yes I concede Philly has built an excellent team around him but so does Allen doesn’t he? At least that’s what people tell me.

Laughable, honestly. Nobody would choose Hurts over Josh Allen or Joe Burrow if they had to choose a QB to build their team around.

Yeah, but he has to prove that first. It took Josh Allen three years of elite play to get this kind of respect. I have no issue with Burrow being ranked ahead of him, but Hurts has one good year. He is way too high.

You want to really compare the Eagles Oline to The Bills Oline?

 I think we see 2020 Allen this year and if we do Josh will be in a different area code than he's been in the last 2 years.

 

 He's got better weapons and better OL than he's had the last 2 years. If Josh doesn't have to play 4 games with a separated left shoulder he would've had a real shot at MVP that year. In the  4 games he was injured he had 4 Passing TDs & 4 INTs, in the other 12 games he had 33/6. 

 

 

[Doc Brown]

Hurts shouldn’t be ahead of Burrow or Allen.

[LOVEMESOMEBILLS]

Some were asking, so here's the full top 10.

Kind of funny, but the guys voted #1 and #2 in all of the NFL by the players were drafted by the teams we traded our picks to in those drafts.

Mahomes at #11 in 2017 and Jefferson at #22 in 2020....both the Bills draft spots, haha.

Wasn’t sure I was even doing that but go ahead. I think I was making a statement about the respective rosters overall (and the perceptions of each) but you tell me what I am thinking and doing so I can jot it down 🤡

That was my first thought too… hindsight is something but so is coaching situation. I don’t think Mahomes becomes who he is with the coaching Allen had his first few years; Daboll would have had him play well however. Certainly capable but was asked to do less with more where conversely Josh was asked to do more with less.

Hill ahead of Allen is rather obnoxious.

also true.

 

I mean, are current players qualified to judge their peers for something like this? Of course. Are they all completely impartial? Hell no.
