are we currently in another '' golden age '' for NFL QB`S?

[FlockOfSeagulls]

I was looking at the rosters of several NFL franchises the other day and noticed alot of Hall Of Fame caliber QB`S currently playing.

In my opinion you have 5 sure 1st ballot Hall of Famers

with Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisburger, Brett Favre[ who qualifies under the last ''golden age '' ] and even Kurt Warner.


then you have a list of former Pro -bowlers like Carson Palmer, Phillip Rivers, Tony Romo, Drew Brees , Eli manning , Donovan McNabb , Matt Hasselback , and Marc Bulger

You also have a group of young Qb`s or first time starters like Jay Cutler , Matt Cassel , Matt Ryan , and Aaron Rodgers


I am not even counting all the recent 1st draft picks that to this point could be labeled busts or mediocre at best

Could this group end up being one of the best ever ?

i would say yes, add all those names to the fact that the nfl is more of a passing league than ever and i think its a simple yes

McNabb and Rodgers doesn't impress me.. Rodgers I've only seen for last season, so he still has hope, but McNabb doesn't really impress me.. If he wasn't so buddy buddy with the coach he wouldn't be their main QB for the Eagles.. (When he wins a superbowl I might consider being impressed) But I still remember when he was sucking and luckily for the Eagles he got hurt and the former 49er, Gracia was their second string and he got the Eagles into the playoffs, but anywho lol..

I think it's another golden age. Compare this crop of QBs to the way it was in the mid 90s and it's far better now and indeed reminiscent of the fabled "'83 draft" which produced Marino, Elway, etc.
