Super Bowl QB's

The 2010 season is drawing to a close and we're just over one week away from the Super Bowl. This game illustrates perfectly the difference between Fantasy and Reality. Packers QB Aaron Rodgers has solidified himself as the #1 fantasy QB for the 2011 season. Meanwhile, Ben Roethlisberger might not even be considered a Top 10 fantasy QB... yet the guy is 28 years old and playing for the chance at a 3rd Super Bowl ring. In the real world he is a Top 3 QB. You can hate Ben Roethlisberger the person all you want but you can't hate on Ben Roethlisberger the QB because he's just too good.

In my estimation, this is the list of the top Fantasy QB's for 2011:

1) Aaron Rodgers GB - He's at the of his game with a wide open offense and plenty of weapons. What pushes him over the top is his mobility. This is an attribute that Brady and Manning don't share.

2) Peyton Manning IND - Yes I know he is coming off one of the shakiest seasons of his career. He got stuck throwing to a bunch of jabronis after injuries hit. Next year he will have a healthy Dallas Clark. Perhaps Garcon and Collie can stay healthy. Plus I can guarantee Peyton will get a new toy in either free agency or the draft.

3) Tom Brady NE - Forget about what happened against the Jets in the playoffs. New England lacked a deep threat to open up the field after Randy Moss died. I definitely think they will use one of their 700 draft picks this year to upgrade that position. He has two of the best young TE's in the game. His track record speaks for itself.

4) Drew Brees NO - He had a slow start to 2010 but that can be attributed to the Madden Curse. The Saints are loaded at WR and now they have Jimmy Graham at TE. Graham is the next Antonio Gates.

5) Philip Rivers SD - He could easily be considered in the discussion for the Top 3. Look what he did statistically with Vincent Jackson holding out and then Antonio Gates getting injured. It's pretty amazing. These 5 are definitely the top tier of QB's in your fantasy league next year.
