Top 5 Smartest QBs

If I could think of more top 5s to make for QBs, I would and I'm very sure that Aaron Rodgers would be top 5 in all of the good ones, or at least there would be an argument to put him into the top 5.

I agree he is elite in almost every area. I was simply stating the biggest difference between a QB who didn't protect the ball, Rivers, and a QB who does, Rodgers. That is the difference between River's being elite in broadcaster's minds and being "down."
The rest of his numbers were fairly similar.

Couldn't disagree more. Rodgers played one less game than Rivers and was sacked 6 more times. He had no elite RB and still protected the ball with 14 fewer INT and 5 fewer fumbles. QBS are obviously going to be better when they have protection but it isn't the only thing that make's or breaks QBs.
As a QB you need to know when to throw it away and when to eat a sack to avoid turnovers.

@Live2wrestle That doesn't make sense, the Mike Martz-style offense (which had the most success when he was the Rams OC when Warner was QB) requires a great O-line to protect the QB long enough for the WR routes to develop.
If Warner had a ****** O-line and was forced to dump the ball quickly, the Martz-style offense would have the same amount of success the Bears had with it (not much).

There's no way the Rams receivers were faster than the Bears' so the explanations I could think of are the Rams' o-line was actually mediocre at best or the Bears o-line of the past few years is worse than I thought it was (and I thought it was the worst in the league).

BUT. If there is one thing you cannot fault the Bears receiving corps, it's speed. Johnny Knox ran a 4.34 40 and Devin Hester is the greatest returner of all-time. They can't catch balls for ****, they can't run routes for ****, they can't get themselves open for ****, but damn they are some fast ****s.
