Pats - no Eason, no Eason at all!
Hate to say it (and all you DO correct me if wrong), but wouldn't Romo actually be ahead of Dandy Don (again, it kills me to say)?
Hebert over Archie? Fill me in (no sarcasm, serious).
Chargers...Tobin? Being he was their only Champion QB!
Seahawks - again, fill me in! Was Kreig really better than, my personal Seahawk-favorite, Zorn??
McNair EONS above Past IMO! Yes, I know Dante ran up against the Curtain but still. Steve was clearly SB-win-capable, just never fell into place as it should have.
Jets...should Richard Todd at least get some mention? And how about '98 Vinny?
I'll take McMahon by a lot and Wade by a championship over Cutler.
You're right about Eason.
Archie was the face of the franchise but he didn't have a chance to be what he could have and should have been. I'll stand by Hebert who took the Saints to the promised land of the playoffs for the first time and had a good run with NO.
Fouts, Rivers and Hadl are clearly the Chargers three best.
Krieg and Zorn are a close call.
As mentioned earlier, Pastorini wasn't very good. McNair frequently was.
Todd might be fourth, ahead of such luminaries as Dick Wood and Al Woodall. :)

Skins: Baugh, Jurgensen, Theismann
Cardinals: Hart, C. Johnson, Lomax
Eagles: McNabb, Van Brocklin, Jurgensen? Jaworski?
Rams: Waterfield, Van Brocklin, Gabriel
Falcons: Ryan, Bartkowski, then Chris Chandler? Chris Miller? Michael Vick?
Jaguars: Brunell, Garrard, Leftwich
Panthers: Newton, Collins, then Beurlein? Delhomme?
Dolphins: Marino, Griese, then Tannahill? Woodley? Fiedler?
Texans: Schaub, Carr, Fitzpatrick?
Cardinals: Warner?
Rams: Warner?
Falcons: I always liked Bob Berry but he doesn't make the cut here. He didn't have a big arm but he averaged 7.8 YPA in his career.
Panthers: Delhomme over Beurlein
Dolphins: Fiedler actually had an underrated stint as the starter so I would take him over Tannahill and Woodley. Earl the Pearl for keeping the '72 team rolling?

I think Roman Gabriel should rank ahead of Everett.

As should Warner.

I would list Randall Cunningham as one the Eagles' top-3 QBs.
Not too many great No. 3 options for the Broncos or Cardinals, thus Jake Plummer deserves a mention for both teams.
There's no way I wouldn't have Warner on the Rams' list, or Eli on the Giants' list.
I agree with Mr. Gill that Dutch Clark was a great player but he wasn't a passer. I think Greg Landry takes the No. 3 spot for the Lions.
I'd love for there to be a spot for Benny Friedman. His career was too short for the Giants though. Maybe if the defunct teams had a list.
I think Bill Kenney could be an honorable mention pick for the Chiefs.

I forgot about Gabriel. He is my no. 3. Everett just barely edges out Warner.

Redskins: Baugh, Jurgensen, Joey T.

You're undoubtedly right, but I was trying desperately to get rid of Landry :D
