Thread: Is Cutler a top 10 QB yet?

I was reading through a thread on another site and after reading it I was wondering if Cutler is in fact a top 10 QB right now in this league.

No special Order... Would you have Culter in the top 10 or even top 5?

1. Peyton Manning
2. Tom Brady
3. Ben Roethlisberger
4. Tony Romo
5. Carson Palmer
6. Drew Brees
7. Jay Cutler
8. Phillip Rivers
9. Marc Bulger
10. David Garrard
11. Donovan McNabb
12. David Anderson
13. Matt Schaub
14. Chad Pennington
15. Eli Manning

I would say he is a top 10, definitely. You can make an argument for top 5, but until he leads a team deep into the playoffs, it would be hard to place him above the guys that have.

On my quick list I would have him at 9 with Bulger and Mcnabb ahead of him. I think he will rise to the top 5 in the next year or two though.....

I think I would place in the top 8.

There own elite class
1. Peyton Manning
2. Tom Brady

Very Good but not elite.
3. Ben Roethlisberger
4. Carson Palmer
5. Drew Brees
6. Donovan McNabb (when healthy)

Up and coming
7. Tony Romo (might be a little over-rated, and I would have to think that if Culter was in the Cowboys offense he would be better than Romo)
8. Jay Cutler

I agree on this list as it currently stands(although I wouldn't have put Romo that high). But looking a head there's no one on the list other than Brady and Manning that Culter will be ranked below after the next couple seasons.

Bulger has to go in there too, last year was because of Pace being out.

Agreed on McNabb and Bulger. I also would have Cutler above Roethlisberger,
and Rivers would not be in the top 10, IMO.

I need more convincing on Roethlisberger because of his major choking in
the postseason and his subpar sophomore season.

Mine might look like this:

1. Peyton Manning
2. Tom Brady
3. Carson Palmer
4. Tony Romo
5. Donovan McNabb
6. Drew Brees
7. Marc Bulger
8. Jay Cutler
9. Ben Roethlisberger
10. Eli Manning

I agree. B-Ro is very overrated

I'll let him have a winning season first before I call him top 10.

I saw Pennington in there and couldn't help but to discard the rest of your list.


Talentwise, yes, Cutler is a top 10 QB.

Accomplishment wise, no.

I just threw together a list... If you didn't read... in no special order... that was the hint... Guys like Bulger, Young, Jackson and so on are listed... you can put your own list together. I didn't even put them in order of best to worst.

Cutler is a top 10 QB today... when he leads the team deep into the playoffs he'll be a top 5 QB.

End of story.

That is what I'm thinking... Pretty good for such a young guy. Hopefully he can keep improving.

Once upon a time there was a quarterback named Cutler. He was a top 10 quarterback. The End.

I would say No.

He needs to accomplish something first and stop making rookie mistakes first.
