I finally agree with Peter King?

Now I know you're saying: There's no way Garcia's one of the top 15 quarterbacks in football. Yes he is. Here's my top 15, rated by who has the combination of resume and immediate bright future:
1. Peyton Manning
2. Tom Brady
3. Steve McNair
4. Brett Favre
5. Trent Green
6. Jake Plummer
7. Daunte Culpepper
8. Chad Pennington
9. Donovan McNabb
10. Mike Vick
11. Garcia
12. Matt Hasselbeck
13. Marc Bulger
14. Brad Johnson
15. Mark Brunell
(Didn't mean to get off on that tangent. But I knew a few of you would write in and ask how I could put Garcia up high on that list, so I thought I'd just give you my list.)
OK, I disagree at #13. I think Ramsey is the better QB than the 3 guys at the bottom of the list and basically even with Hasselbeck. Otherwise, I think this list is about right. Someone is conspicuous by his absence... :P
"I've been stereotyped as a guy who's not big enough, who's got an average arm,'' Garcia told me. "Well, I've gotten to three Pro Bowls in the last five years with that average arm. There's something about guts and determination that's pretty important to this position too. When I'm out on the field, I'm the harshest critic of myself. I expect perfection. I show my emotion. I'm not content or happy just to be out there playing. I'm only content doing everything I can to win. And I want everyone else out there striving to be the best they can be too.''
I'd pay real money to have a QB with this sort of attitude and this kind of leadership.
