Welcome to the NFL. Sure, we all can debate who's the best in the NFL, but i have decided to dig a bit deeper to see who's the best at his position soley based on potential of the 2008 season. (my top 5)

1.Tom Brady: Love him.  Hate him.  When it comes down to clutch performances and getting the job done, this is my feild general in every situation.  With the re-signing of Randy Moss, that keeps the Patriots the most potent offense.  New England however did lose to free agency Donte Stallworth.  With that being said, Stallworth wasn't a regular weapon on this team's offense. so expect this Patriots team to go undefeated.  Remember where you heard it first. 

1.Petyon Manning : I never liked to use the term 1 and 2 with these top QB's. But since 1A isn't a number, sorry Mr. Manning, you'll have to accept number 2.  Not as clutch as Tom Brady nor does he proves to be calm is the harshest situations, Manning is Mr. Consistency, when I think of a "prototypical" quaterback, my answer is always this man.  With a SuperBowl under his belt, this guy can easily surpass Brady with solid play.  But due to Marvin Harrison's injury and no true backup, this is the only thing that hurts Manning.  Reggie Wayne is always a go to guy, so thats always a security blanket.  (Sorry younger brother, it takes more than an escaped sack under two minutes to play and ultimately win the superbowl to get on this list)

3.Tony Romo  : This Celeb/Quaterback is without doubt the best QB in the NFC.  As far as being number this season, he must be ready to put up Brady like numbers, Manning or Brady like Playoff wins, and Terry Glenn must return to top form.  With T.O. ,Crayton, Witten, and the recomittment of stockpiling a formidable running trio in Barber, Choice, And Jones, Chances are that Romo may lose passing reps.  The Cowboys last season put too much pressure on Romo and Co. without having a run game to rely on.  Just because he's number 3 on my list doesn't mean he can't become number when it all matters. (just ask Eli Manning) With all the glamour and glitz this Dallas team possess, i'm not so sure if Romo is 1 on a team with celeb-like players such as Terrell Owens, Pacman Jones, Jessica Simpson( sorry but i couldn't resist) and even the owner himself Jerry Jones.

4. Ben Roethlisberger: I know, I know, I know.  Big Ben has had an up and down career, which makes me beleive that he's straddled the fence.  When he's good, he's great. But when he's bad, he's terrible.  With immediate draft studs such as Limas Sweed who can make the whole team forget about Plaxico Burress, and Rashard Mendenhall giving them a running attack that will resemble the old Bettis/Parker duo.  Look for Big Ben to put up great numbers in this upcomign 2008 season.

5. Donovan McNabb/Jake Delhomme:  I know 5A isn't a number but since this is my list i can manipulate my owns sytem.  I don't believe in Kevin Curtis, nor do i beleive in Reggie Brown.  But i do beleive in a Better Defense and the addition of Lorenzo Booker who in my mind is a poor man's Brian Westbrook.  There's no dropoff when either is on the feild therefore keeps both guys fresh. Sure Plenty of you would say why not Carson Palmer? Why not Drew Brees? i don't see any improvement in either team that'll make these guys better.  However in Jake Delhomme, I see Steve Smith.  I see Mushin Muhammad. I also See Dwayne Jarrett.  Above all, I see Jonathan Stewart, Jeff Otah and an average of a 330 pound offensive line capable of running and play action that'll make Delhomme that much better.

Never Doubt that a picture isn't worth a thousand words
