You've got middle LBs working the opposite side just as hard as the QBs, so who's to say they aren't as important or working as hard as QBs. Brady or Rodgers is a given, but the NFL list (voted by players, so automatically inaccurate) goes bipolar with rookies or sophomores in the top half or 20, while injured players are still being ranked (AP had #98?) on their legacy. Then some omissions entirely (Jordan Howard). Game's way too team-based and position-specific. And even coaching affects a team's performance and looks.
