Off the top of my head:
Manning
Brady
Roethlisberger
Rivers
Warner
McNabb
Palmer
Brees
JC
And those are just the ones I'd DEFINITELY take. I'd probably take Ryan, Hasselbeck, Cutler and maybe another few others too.

You can say what you want about him prior to the last 6 or so game leading them to the SB but in that stretch he was a key to their winning. Heck the one play in the SB when he had guys hanging off him and some how got away and then threw that ball to get the first down was what kept winning drive alive. You can also point to about another 12 QB's that could not beat the Pats that year but he found a way to win. Is he worth that contract? Only time will tell.
