In a heart beat. Newton has really grown as a QB in the NFL. I know Luck was dealing with injuries last year but I just wasn't seeing growth as a passer. He came in head and shoulders above the rest of his class in terms of NFL readiness but both Wilson and Newton (I know, not his class but close enough) have progressed further (yes, they had further to go). I would not be surprised if Luck as good as he can be at this point. A good QB who throws lots of TD's and INT's.

I would not be surprised if, in ten years, we look back on Newton, Luck, & Wilson and determine that Newton and Wilson's career acheivements far surpassed Luck's.

Of the rest from 2012(Griffin, Cousins, Foles, Tannehill, Weeden, & Oswhieler), only Cousins has shown any real growth and then only over the 10 games of the regular season. However, if he continues on this career trajectory, he too could ultimately surpass Luck.

As for the greatest of all time QB's, well, I break it into top 5, top 10 and I think Manning certainly is in the first conversation and a must in the second.

My Top 5, 10.
1-5 (in no particular order): Unitas, Graham, Montana, Brady, Elway
6-10 (again, in no particular order): Manning, Marino, Bobby Lane, Baugh, Kelly.

If you bump Manning into to the top five, not sure who you would bump out an argument could be made for each. Just outside my top 10, although again, certainly an argument could be made to include them: W. Moon and D. Brees.
