Worst Quarterbacks of the Past 20 Years Tournament

In light of the Best Quarterback Ever Tournament and insightful suggestions on behalf of the fellow writers here at Armchairgm, I present the Worst Quarterbacks of the Past 20 Years Tournament.

In order to qualify a quarterback must have started the majority of at least one NFL season and never posted a rating above 70 during their years as a starter. I am only including the past twenty years due to the fact that passing statistics have drastically changed over time due to a multitude of factors such as pass interference and introduction of certain offensive schemes.

Voting is the same as Best Quarterback Ever Tournament with the exception you are voting for the WORST quarterback. (Ex. Gelbaugh is statistically worse than McNown so one would vote Gelbaugh if voting purely on statistics)

For any of you who have ever been a fan of team quarterbacked by any of these individuals, I extend my deepest condolences...

Here's the lineup... Seeds are based on Quarterback Rating

1. Stan Gelbaugh 2100 10 TD 22 INT 50.5 Seahawks

2. Akili Smith 2212 5 TD 13 INT 52.8 Bengals

3. Rusty Hilger 2584 11 TD 19 INT 52.8 Lions

4. Browning Nagle 2489 8 TD 20 INT 53.5 Jets

5. Heath Shuler 3691 15 TD 33 INT 54.3 Redskins

6. Andrew Walter 1715 3 TD 13 INT 56.3 Raiders

7. Tom Tupa ( Yes the punter) 3430 12 TD 25 INT 60.5 Cardinals

8. Chris Weinke 3904 15 TD 26 INT 62.2 Panthers

9. Randy Wright 7106 31 TD 57 INT 61.4 Packers

10. Ken Dorsey 1712 8 TD 11 INT 63.5 49ers

11. Tommy Hodson 1823 7 TD 11 INT 64.1 Patriots

12. Chuck Long 3747 19 TD 28 INT 64.5 Lions

13. David Klingler 3994 16 TD 22 INT 65.1 Bengals

14. Cade McNown 3111 16 TD 19 INT 67.7 Bears


Round One:

  • Stan Gelbaugh, SEA vs. Cade McNown, CHI
  • Akili Smith, CIN vs. David Klingler, CIN
  • Rusty Hilger, DET vs. Chuck Long, DET
  • Browning Nagle, NYJ vs. Tommy Hodson, NE
  • Heath Shuler, WAS vs. Ken Dorsey, SF
  • Andrew Walter, OAK vs. Randy Wright, GB
  • Tom Tupa, ARZ vs. Chris Weinke, CAR

Wow, when Cade McNown is the "best" QB on a list you know there is something wrong.

Regardless of QB Ratings, Ryan Leaf was the worst of the worse.

He was the worst regarding rating. He had a 50.0 in his career.

Read the qualifications. He's had a QB rating of over 70 twice. 74.8 in three games in 2003 and 73.9 in 16 games and a Superbowl Appearance in 2006. I'll grant that Grossman has given us perhaps the most ugly single games in NFL history, but he's not among the worst NFL QBs of all time.

You guys are really overrating Randy Wright (Packers). I grew up watching his mediocrity at Wisconsin and with the Pack. Truly one of the least talented starting NFL quarterbacks. Ever.
