That's how I see it too. You could make an argument for Chandler over Vick, but Chandler really only had the one really good season. Vick had a few and Bartkowski was money once the switch flipped with him (which took long enough, but man he was good once he figured it out). Miller wins the 5 spot by default -- he was solid, but couldn't stay in the game and threw too many INTs. If I had watched before 1978 or so, I might replace him with someone else.

Before it's over, I know I'll end up flipping Ryan and Bart, but for now, I see it as you do.

Funny, I met a guy that wore a Jeff George Jersey to the Ain'ts game last month. I asked him why, he said he hates George, but that the Falcons win whenever he wears the Jersey to a game. I told him to keep it up.

Vick ahead of Chandler? Come on man. Chandler owns the only NFC Title in Falcons history.

He asked for people to give "THEIR" ranking. Doesn't make any ranking here right or wrong - but opinion. Feel free to give us yours.

1. Chris Chandler - has to be because he's the only one who's gotten us to the big game - So far!
2. Steve Bartkowski - for pure passing ability, arm strength and QB knowledge
3. Matt Ryan - He may well be the greatest leader we've had as QB (time will tell) and definitely a winner
4. Michael Vick - Without a doubt - the best athlete we've had (Deion maybe), not always the best QB - but he was exciting and definitely a winner.
5. Bobby Hebert - He brought us back against the 49ers Christmas Eve '95 - the last game I attended with my son - and I'll love him forever for that!

I liked Bobby's heart and determination but he never had reallygood arm strength as a Saint and by the time he got to us, his arm was rediculously weak. That was a great game for him but, Chris Miller was a much better QB for us than Bobby.

Other than the ones that you have mentioned, the only other significant QB in Falcon history is Jeff George, and we all know why he isn't mentioned.

I'm with Tandy. I'll put Chandler number 1 based on the fact that he helped the Falcons to the Super Bowl.

In fact I would do my ratings exactly the same as hers except for I would replace Hebert with Chris Miller - but just barely.
