Former Fox Sports personality Skip Bayless proved this week that he's still got his fastball.
Although the NFL season is still several months away, Bayless ranked his top 12 quarterbacks of all time. It's no surprise to see Tom Brady in the No. 1 spot. The seven-time Super Bowl champion has always been considered Bayless' favorite quarterback.
Interestingly enough, Bayless has Peyton Manning outside of the top five. Several analysts believe the two-time Super Bowl champion and five-time MVP deserves to be in the top three, but clearly Bayless doesn't subscribe to that narrative.
Here's the full top 12 from Bayless:
- Tom Brady
- Joe Montana
- John Elway
- Roger Staubach
- Terry Bradshaw
- Peyton Manning
- Brett Favre
- Patrick Mahomes
- Troy Aikman
- Bart Starr
- Kurt Warner
- Aaron Rodgers

Despite all of their accomplishments, Drew Brees and Dan Marino missed the cut for Bayless.
Johnny Unitas, Ben Roethlisberger and Steve Young were also in the mix for Bayless' top-12.
"Worst list ever."
Unsurprisingly, NFL fans ripped this top-12 from Bayless. Outside of his ranking for Brady, they believe his list is an utter mess.
"Troy Aikman is the most overrated QB of all time," one fan declared.
"Stafford is a better QB than Warner," a second fan said.
"Any top 10 QB list without Brees lacks validity," a social media user replied.
"No Dan Marino?? This is a joke, right?" a fan wrote.
"John Elway at 3 goes against literally everything Skip has preached for 2 decades," another person argued.
Do you think Bayless missed the mark?
