Who's the worst QB in this picture?

[Hank South]

No. 6 imo if we're just going college. 

[Deej]

Agreed. Baker for sure 

[Tuco Ramirez]

Baker’s lost a step.

[Red Five]

I could probably be convinced it's Tebow and not Baker.

[Blake Munroe]

Asked AI to remove the worst QB in the group.

 

Reasoning:
 

Even restricting it strictly to college performance, Tebow is the weakest link in this Murderers’ Row of QBs. Here’s the quick college-only breakdown:

Vince Young (Texas): Rose Bowl hero, led Texas to the 2005 national title, absurd dual-threat production, one of the most electric single seasons ever.

Cam Newton (Auburn): 2010 Heisman + national champion, ridiculous efficiency + rushing dominance (nearly 1,500 rush yards), carried Auburn in a way few have.

Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma): Multiple Big 12 titles, Heisman winner, absurd volume + efficiency over multiple years, one of the best pure college careers statistically.

Joe Burrow (LSU): 2019 was arguably the greatest single season by a college QB ever (5,600+ pass yards, 60 TDs, national title, Heisman). Instant legend.

Tim Tebow (Florida): Incredible leader, two national titles, Heisman winner, tough as nails… but as a pure passer he was the clear step below the rest. Lower efficiency, more game-manager/run-heavy style compared to the elite arm talent and production of the other four.

Tebow’s intangibles and winning were unmatched, but if we’re judging QB play in college (accuracy, arm strength, decision-making, passing production), he’s the odd man out against these four monsters.

Honestly considered that based off full football career. Was just too good in college

Interesting 🤔

In the pros, only Burrows and Mayfield have made it.  In college, probably Vince and Cam were the best because they were great with a good cast around them, but not a spectacular cast.  That LSU team was great pretty much top to bottom.  That leaves Tebow as the worst overall, but I really liked him in college.

forgot to add the last sentence about Tebow

[hookem1014]

From best to worst (they're all spectacular) I have VY, Cam, Burrow, Tebow, Baker. Cam had the weakest roster out of anyone in the photo so I have him very close to VY as far as talent.

[Gerry Hamilton]

Still wild that Florida had Tim Tebow and Cam Newton on the same team.

And that 2007 Florida recruiting class (Cam Newton) had 10-12 NFL draft picks ... even with all the off the field issues in that class is crazy.
