and then you have good QBs like Tua, Purdy, Herbert, etc
there are also overrated QBs like Geno Smith, Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray.
If you want to put Mahomes a cut above the rest, I'm not going to make a strong argument otherwise… but Allen, Burrow and Herbert (along with Mahomes) make up tier 1 in my mind. Tier 2 would be Hurts, Jackson, Rodgers, possibly Lawrence.
It's not that important in the end. As was mentioned earlier the entire point of wanting an elite QB is it's the easiest ticket to having an elite offense in today's NFL. We have that with Purdy. Dolphins have at least the elite pass game with Tua.
I started making a tier list and deleted it but basically I had Mahomes tier 1, Allen and Burrow tier 2.
Tier 3 was everyone else you listed and it included Purdy. It also includes guys like Jimmy G if he can stay healthy, albeit barely. Herbert I'm still leaning to Tier 3.
these are all guys that can win a Super Bowl depending on team talent.
everybody in tier 4 either are or tend to be a liability
