00:00The top 10 QBs for 2026.
00:03This is NFL, guys.
00:05Josh Allen comes in at number one.
00:07Mahomes at two.
00:09Now, look, if I am rating this, and it's funny because Friday we were talking
00:15about this a little bit at Twin Peaks, it's not just because of the injury.
00:18If you go look at Mahomes the last three years, his production is down.
00:23It's not the 50 touchdown guy we saw when Mahomes came up.
00:27How much of that is because of some of the people they've added or subtracted
00:30from that squad over the years?
00:31It is, Mike.
00:32The team has changed.
00:33And so, you know, his production has gone down.
00:36But I also think, like, when you're throwing 22 or 26 touchdowns
00:40and 11 interceptions, that's what his numbers were last year.
00:43Because think about it.
00:44Before the injury, and even like the last year they went to the Super Bowl,
00:47that offense is painful to watch.
00:48Yes.
00:48You know, I mean, Kelsey's production obviously came down.
00:51This will be probably the last rodeo for Travis Kelsey.
00:54They've kind of been of some of their parts.
00:55With all due respect to Pacheco in the run game,
00:57imagine if Andy Reid pivoted and leaned into a big running back.
01:01But he wants to throw it all day.
01:02He does.
01:02So he comes in at two.
01:04My point is I wouldn't have him there.
01:05That's me.
01:06Where would you put Mahomes?
01:07And again, you're just basing this off a reputation, so be it.
01:10I'm going to base it off of how well these guys have played.
01:14Matthew Stafford is at three.
01:15That's the reigning MVP.
01:17And I know he's old and all that.
01:18He can still spin it.
01:20And I think now, if we're just talking about the individual,
01:22because, as you said, there's variables, if you want to take it down,
01:24okay, well, who's he surrounded by?
01:26What's the coaching staff like?
01:28You know, Patrick Mahomes has got a great coaching staff,
01:30and I'll see Matthew Stafford's got, we think,
01:31the best coaching staff in football right now.
01:33Yes, yes.
01:33But still, I've got to be honest, I would have Matthew Stafford.
01:37The guy with the ring would be ahead of Josh Allen,
01:38despite Josh Allen's upside and athleticism.
01:40They blew it last year.
01:42They missed their window.
01:43That's how I feel.
01:44They've been missing their window, Buffalo, the last couple seasons.
01:46Burrell comes in at four.
01:47Again, Allen, Mahomes, Stafford.
01:50I'm putting Stafford one.
01:51I'm with Mike.
01:52Allen two, I'm pushing Mahomes back.
01:54Burrell's four.
01:55Wait, what's Burrell one lately?
01:56Well, listen to you.
01:56When's Burrell on the field lately?
01:58When he's healthy, as dangerous as they get.
02:00But it's that caveat, right?
02:02When healthy.
02:03Then you get Lamar at five.
02:05You have an issue with Lamar being five, Mike?
02:07Well, his stuff, it's more about the postseason.
02:09So, again, it's all a matter of, first off,
02:11this is perfect clickbait to get us arguing about this stuff.
02:13But Lamar has been a guy that, you know, okay, new O.C.
02:16You didn't like the old one.
02:18Good luck, buddy boy.
02:19It's just about minimalizing the turnovers when it matters most in the playoffs.
02:24That's the problem I have with Lamar Jackson.
02:25Dak Prescott is six.
02:27No, well, it's too high.
02:29Justin Herbert, seven.
02:30Would you put Herbert?
02:31No.
02:32Look, you've always been sort of meh on Herbert,
02:34and I'm kind of coming around to your mehness on him.
02:37I do like the Chargers squad, the team itself.
02:40And they've built up, they've drafted wide receivers,
02:43they got rid of some of the older players,
02:44they're changing the look of it.
02:46I do like the Chargers.
02:47And remember, both their tackles, right and left tackle were out last year.
02:50They get those guys back.
02:52Drake May, Mike, is eight.
02:54Now, I know I run the Super Bowl, you get a lot of hype,
02:56but is Drake May, is he in the top ten?
03:00He threw for 4,000 yards last year, guys.
03:02Right.
03:03And, you know, now you're going to get him more weapons.
03:05But we're not talking about potential.
03:06It's just kind of where they rank right now.
03:08All right.
03:09And here's the deal.
03:10I'm not, again, I'm kind of doing the hand thing where you go, eh.
03:14May's good.
03:15I probably have him outside of the top ten, but I understand.
03:17Last year was an unbelievable year for him.
03:19It finishes up with Jared Goff at 9, and then Caleb Williams at 10.
03:23Now, see, I'm high on Williams.
03:25I would probably put him 7, 8, 9, and maybe have May at 10.
03:31Because I do think what happened with Drake May is what happened with Vrabel
03:35in his time with the Patriots.
03:37Right.
03:37I'm going to give you a great defense.
03:39I'm going to give you a good run game.
03:41I'm going to give you all these things.
03:43I just need you to be really good and not turn the ball over, although he threw for 4,000
03:47yards.
03:47And so a lot of people said, wait a minute, you're disrespecting Drake May.
03:49But that is the top ten.
03:51Again, Allen, Mahomes, Stafford, Burrow, Jackson, Prescott, Herbert, May, Goff, Williams.
03:57You know what?
03:57Looking at the numbers, I would probably have Drake May higher.
04:00I might even move Drake May up.
04:03I might move, right now, Caleb Williams out.
04:06Caleb Williams was 7th in pass.
04:09You know what?
04:1027 touchdowns and 7 picks.
04:12Now, Caleb Williams says, you know who should go out?
04:13Who?
04:14All right.
04:15Goff?
04:16Dak.
04:17Okay.
04:17And then, and I know Dak, by the way, 30, these are all great numbers.
04:22You know what?
04:23Where's Sam Darnold?
04:24Sam Darnold won the Super Bowl.
04:25I know.
04:26And Sam Darnold was, what, 25, 14 picks.
04:30Yardage was up there.
04:31Completion percentage was strong.
04:33I mean, it is like you're splitting hairs here.
04:35And Jared Goff was second best to Stafford.
04:37So, I mean, if you're going to have a top ten, it's a fun conversation because maybe Caleb
04:42Williams has to wait.
04:43Trevor Lawrence was actually top ten.
04:45Lawrence should be in there.
04:46Lawrence had a great, great second half.
04:48Sam Darnold and Herbert out.
04:50How's that for me?
04:51There you go.
04:51Everything else stays.
04:52The second half of the season, Jacksonville averaged 32 points a game.
04:5532.
04:56That's why they just exploded.
04:58I'm with you.
04:58I think Lawrence should be in there.
04:59But if you're going to go purely by numbers and stats, Josh Allen is living off rep.
05:03He is.
05:04Last year's numbers, he wasn't as good as those other guys.
05:06And neither was Mahomes.
05:07This is what I'm saying.
05:08Both of those guys, definitely top ten.
05:11But let's scoot them down a little bit.
05:13Let me ask you this before we get to what's on Day Day's mind.
05:17When are we going to have another quarterback that we're talking about in the top five or
05:21ten in the NFL?
05:23Well, is it going to be this year?
05:25Man.
05:26I mean, we got guys out there that are rooting for Pettix Jr.
05:28We want to see him trying to grab it and get it together.
05:31Oh, the video's been verified, by the way.
05:33It is, Michael Pettix Jr.
05:35The video's been verified.
05:36All right.
05:37I mean, there's still a lot of things to overcome.
05:39There's a lot of things to overcome for both these guys.
05:41Both these guys got to grasp the offense.
05:43But Tua, as you guys know, has got the advantage.
05:44I mean, Tua is already, like, statistically, Tua is still a decent quarterback.
05:49Last year, as bad as things got in Miami.
05:51Yeah.
05:51But, I mean, I know this is going to irk everybody.
05:54I'll just say it.
05:55I think our next great quarterback.
05:56You don't like guys with bad knees?
05:58Our next great quarterback is in the draft.
06:01I don't like that.
06:02I got to be proven.
06:04We're going to see you to camp, guys.
06:05You know what, Mike?
06:06You just made me proud.
06:08Why is that?
06:08Because in a roundabout way, you just told Carl to be patient.
06:13I can't.
06:14I can't.
06:14I can't.
06:15We can't.
06:16It just means I don't believe in the two guys we got right now.
06:18But that's, I mean, that's where we're living.
06:20I mean, that's why everybody in Vegas, from the over-under in Vegas to where people look
06:24at our team, when your quarterback is up in the air, people don't believe in your squad.
06:28Man, if we got this wrong.
06:31I think I trust Matt Ryan to get it right.
06:35I believe in Matt.
06:35I really like our coach.
06:37I like the GM.
06:38But, I mean, this, as Day Day says, patience, this may have to be a work in progress.
06:44And our guy might be playing college ball this year.
06:47Unless, unless, unless, unless, unless, Tua reinvents himself or Michael Paddix Jr.
06:52becomes the guy you thought he was.
06:54And that could happen, by the way.
06:56I guess.
06:58Coming up, find out what's on Day Day's mind.
07:00Bye-bye.
07:00Bye-bye.
07:00Bye-bye.
07:01Bye-bye.
07:01Bye-bye.
07:01Bye-bye.
07:01Bye-bye.
