The numbers may say he's elite but his play and his leadership sucks.

I replied:

Considering that New Orleans is the winningest team in the NFL over the last three years including post season, and Drew was the QB for the last three years.... The article should be about drew...

But we already know Drew is elite, and Pat hand picks stats to make his article look the way he wants. Looking at matching years 2008-2011.
Brees (with the Saints) .714 regular season (63 games - 45 wins) add play offs and he is .694 win %.
Ryan is .693 regular season (63 games - 43 wins) add play offs and he is .651 win %.

But I suppose if you want to say he is the Second best QB in the NFC South (out of 4) you may have a point.

Remember a time when there was just "good" quarterbacks? This whole elite thing doesn't mean much if everyone becomes elite...

Ha! I was in a clothing store last weekend and the cashier was offering "preferred cards" to everyone in line. When it was my turn and she offered I asked her, "if you make everyone preferred how will you ever differentiate?"

All I received was a blank stare.

Exactly, if Ryan is 'elite', then pretty much everyone after Brees, Brady & Rodgers is 'elite' also. If you can't talk about them in the same conversation with one of those three, they ain't 'elite'.

To me he is in the third tier.
That's not meant to be a insults but I have the QBs ranked

Tier 1
Brady
Rogers
Brees
Fully fit Manning

2
Newton
Stafford
E.Manning

3
Roethlisberger
Ryan
Romo
Etc

Ryan could move up to tier 2 in my book ,but he doesn't have the body of work to get into the top 3.Another good season from Newton and Stafford and they would be pushing to make the top tier

Pretty good list. I'd swap Roethlisberger with Newton for now, but Newton's gaining. He trailed off a bit last year and that pro-bowl performance was embarrassing.
