Everybody’s favorite website, Pro Football Focus, yesterday published a list of what they are calling the “10 Best QB Duels of the PFF Era”, which expands back to the 2006 season, which is when they started accumulating their data. That does gives them a solid 11 seasons of data to work with, and in the most prolific era of the quarterback position.
Of course, it’s not necessarily the 10 best quarterback duels, but is actually literally the 10 games in which they recorded the highest cumulative grade between the two opposing quarterbacks—and some surprising names end up on the list that way.
