Hot Read

The statement that the NFL is becoming a QB league has been ingrained in every sports enthusiast brain. We get it. The act of throwing is not difficult. It’s not even the hardest position to play in football. We hear you Cornerbacks. But goddamn, it is the most important position in sports. Look at the statistics from last week. A rookie throwing for more than 400 hundreds, Brady dissecting a defense for over 500 hundreds, and a slew of other QB’s with 2 or more TD’s and over the 400 mark. The spread offenses, the trick plays, and the quality of QB’s in the league correlates to defenses turning over and taking it up the ass. Because of this, I have decided to make two lists of QB’s. Fuck this new QB rating, screw the numbers; this comes down to wins, grit, and skill.
 Quarterbacks that you love to hate. Here are the top five QB’s that your team does not want to go against. These people are the talent and can make or break your soul. And for those of you who do not love sports like I do, I have given them an actor who  they resemble:
1.       Aaron Rodgers-Matt Damon
It was just a few years ago when the Favre controversy began. There was a lot of anger from the Cheese head diehards. They owe everyone an apology. Rodgers was flawless in the playoffs. He gets the Matt Damon vote. Everyone knew he would do well, but is now really on fire. Matt Damon might be the hottest actor out there like Rodgers in the hottest QB in the league.
2.       Tom Brady- Brad Pitt
The looker. He has now been around for awhile and is still the face of the NFL. This man wins, puts up numbers, and essentially can dominate whenever he wants. Brad Pitt’s movies always open strong as does Tom Brady.
3.       Peyton Manning-Lucky Leo DiCaprio
The most consistent player on the field, he dominates the game when healthy. This year is an anomaly. One more ring and he will be considered the greatest QB of all time. Everyone wants to see anything and everything he's in. You just stare in amazement.
4.       Ben Roethlisberger-Christian Bale
This guy beats the shit out of his body and keeps coming back. Roethlisberger can play anyone in any circumstance and can win.  Whether Bale is playing a crack head brother, John Connor, Batman, or Patrick Bateman, he puts on a performance. Big Ben is a winner and does not understand any other way.
5.       Philip Rivers- Johnny Depp
Personality wise, they are as different as can be. Philip rivers is the intense firecracker and Depp is the relax, weed smoking ‘dude’. Besides this, there is no better correlation. Philip Rivers is underrated, because his entire career has consisted of a team that ends up faltering. Like him, the Depper doesn’t get his due credit because he does not do traditional Blockbusters, or does not take marketable roles…until now. That said, both consistently perform at a top level. Plus, Philip River’s half-cocked weird toss is nothing short of Depp’s questionable movie selections
Others
Drew Brees-Clooney-Still affective
Michael Vick-Rourke-Biggest comeback ever?
Tony Romo-Downey Jr. With all of the off field turmoil from years past everyone forgets he’s a good player.
Joe Flacco-Renner-When will he get his due credit?
Matt Ryan-Reynolds-People love to love him even after he destroys your team
Alright, so if you don’t agree with this list, then go fuck yourself. Or tell us why. Of course I left off the legends in the game such as the Day-Lewis’s, Hank’s, Bridges, and Cruises of the world, but that's because this is the list of now. Maybe, I’ll make a list comparing the greats next.
