One NFL analyst highlighted that he knows nothing about football, by not including the obvious best quarterback in the league, Patrick Mahomes, in his top 5!
The Kansas City Chiefs are off to a regular start this year, going 3-0 against three solid teams, and while they are winning each of these games Mahomes himself has been underperforming by his standards. For some reason, this has led to one analyst and former quarterback leaving Mahomes off his top 5 list of quarterbacks.
All that shows, is that the people at ESPN truly have no idea what they are talking about.
NFL Analyst Highlights How Little He Knows NFL Football

Former quarterback and ‘analyst’ Dan Orlovsky revealed that he knows nothing about football on Thursday. The Chiefs are looking to make history by winning their third straight Super Bowl, and so far, they are off to a great start. In fact, no team around the NFL can confidently think they will beat the Chiefs when it matters.
Apparently, the history of Mahomes and the fact that his team is 3-0 to start the year has not proven that he is a top-five quarterback in the league right now. Just wait on who Orlovsky has put over Mahomes in his rankings.
The days of ESPN giving real football takes are long over.
.@danorlovsky7's top five NFL QBs right now 👀
1. Josh Allen
2. Aaron Rodgers
3. Sam Darnold
4. Kyler Murray
5. Geno Smith pic.twitter.com/hhqXerFEC2— First Take (@FirstTake) September 26, 2024
No disrespect to any of the gentlemen that Orlovsky mentioned in his top five, but Geno Smith?! Kyler Murray?! what are we talking about on ESPN? While Josh Allen is certainly playing the best of anyone in the NFL right now, even placing him over Mahomes is blasphemy.
There is no justification for this list whatsoever, and it really highlights the state of affairs in the NFL media. Of course, Chiefs fans and NFL fans at large let him have it for this absurd take, but that is probably what he wanted. There are a few legends in the media that are actually breaking down the sport we love, while the huge majority is legitimately making things up to get clicks.
NFL Fans Destroy Dan Orlovsky

Besides Mahomes, other top quarterbacks are obvious choices on the list but Orlovsky thinks these are the five best quarterbacks in 2024 through 3 weeks. It’s truly laughable, and fans have let him have it, but that may have been exactly what he wanted when creating this list in the first place:
How does this dude have a platform anymore.
