This NFL season has been so spectacular as the New England Patriots are about to become undefeated and win their 4th superbowl this decade. I have made an oust anding list of the top 10 quarterbacks this year. Some may surprise you, and other and no-brainers. I can tell you right now that anyone who ranks the quarterbacks that made it furthest this year in the top of the list, they are way off. To start out, I am going to go with....

1) Tom Brady, New England- Ok, how could this guy not be the best overall? He won the 2007-2008 NFL MVP while quarterbacking the first team ever to a 16-0 undefeated season. He helped his team beat other great teams including San Diego, Indianapolis, and Tennessee. He threw a record breaking 50 touchdowns and only 8 interceptions. He dominated the NFL this year and look for him to dominate the weak Giants in the superbowl.

2) Brett Favre, Green Bay- Although he is getting old and thinking about retirement, he showed no signs of slowing down this year leading his team to a number 2 seed in the playoffs. He didn't have a great runningback or a great receiving core but he still managed to throw 28 touchdowns with only 15 interceptions. That is awesome for a man his age. And, oh yah, he also broke the record for most touchdowns EVER thrown. Nice job, Brett.

3) Peyton Manning, Indianapolis- Unlike his brother Eli, who didn't actually do so great this year (and who we will get to later), Peyton dominated once again throwing 31 touchdowns and only allowing 14 interceptions. This was with his best receiver, Marvin Harrison, hurt for a bunch of games. He is the leader of his team and he proved it yet again, leading the Colts to a 2nd seed behind the NE Patriots. He is being underrated because his team didn't make it past San Diego, but that loss should be put on the shoulders of the defense.

4) Tony Romo, Dallas- This guy went through so many ups and downs since last year when he lost the game and the season for his team by dropping a field goal snap. Again, this year, with the whole Jessica Simpson deal, he still managed to throw 36 touchdowns and only give up 19 interceptions. I think that is amazing for a guy with so much pressure on him. He got the respect of Terrell Owens, who cried like a baby after the loss might I add, and helped lead his team to the number 1 seed in the playoffs. Although they lost to NYG, Romo still did very well and proved he is a great quarterback.

5) Phillip Rivers, San Diego- He is so tough, and I think everyone
