I'm going to rank the starting quarterbacks in tiers, and simply because they seem to work out perfectly, I will label each tier with a baseball movie title.

Yes, baseball movies. Trust me; it'll make sense, I promise.

Please keep in mind that these rankings are NOT based primarily upon this season. If they were, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Matt Stafford would be in the top five. 

TIER 7: Major League: Back to the Minors

32. Blaine Gabbert - Jaguars
31. Kerry Collins - Colts

TIER 6: The Bad News Bears

30. Andy Dalton - Bengals
29. Tarvaris Jackson - Seahawks
28. Alex Smith - 49ers
27. Colt McCoy - Browns
26. Donovan McNabb - Vikings
