Tom Brady's Top 5 QBs:
- Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs)
- Josh Allen (Bills)
- Joe Burrow (Bengals)
- Lamar Jackson (Ravens)

Peyton Manning's Top 5 QB list:
- Patrick Mahomes
- Joe Burrow
- Justin Herbert
- Lamar Jackson
- Josh Allen
"I'm a big fan of Joe Burrow," Manning said. "I'm glad to see him healthy again. I like the way he carries himself. He doesn't sweat. He doesn't flinch. He's just calm all the time.
"Justin Herbert is as talented as anybody. He can throw a mile; Lamar Jackson does things that just don't seem possible with the ball in his hands. He es well, he runs and he also protects. I could never run, so I never had that problem.
"Josh Allen is a total stud. Tough. I watched him this summer. He's highly motivated to give Buffalo a championship," Manning concluded.
