If you have been around and read enough articles about betting to make money in the NFL, you have surely run across ones that rank NFL quarterbacks according to the magical QB passing rating. Although these numbers can be intriguing they don't necessarily translate into making money for the bettor. The bottom line is how does that particular QB rank in making money for the person who wishes to increase their bankroll betting NFL games.
There are a number of opinions/perceptions of who are the best QB's in the game today but very few take look at who makes the money. Below is a ranking of some of the top names in the game and who would have made you money both home and away over the last several years (all amounts are based on $100 per wager and 10% juice). To no ones surprise, at least not to me, Tom Brady leads the list while wagering on Brett Favre would have cost you a bunch of dough.
