    Here's mine:

    1. Calvin Johnson. He makes everything looks so effortless even in triple coverage.

    2. Peyton Manning. I am still a Tom Brady first guy but watching him control his line and find the open guy is a thing of beauty.

    3. Marshawn Lynch. Season opener against GB gives you more reason to watch this guy turn nothing into something.

    4. Seattle's defense. Okay I cheated here but it's the electricity/hype/ability that their defense brings that makes you want to just watch how they are going to stop the opposition on the next drive.

    5. Tony Romo. Just because at any given moment, he can throw the majestic of interceptions. Football needs comedy.

    1. Manning
    2. Rodgers
    3. Brees
    4. Brady
    5. Ryan

    Great qbs that have total control of their offense is just a joy to watch. The way they adjust defenses and control tempo of the game is fascinating to me.

    Romo for the comedic value...

    Seattle's defense (squad not player...I cheated).

    Calvin Johnson....

    And the rest of my fantasy team.

    Surprised all the Seahawks people are listing, but nobody's mentioning Harvin. Guy was lightning in a bottle in Minnesota, just like Patterson's looking like.

    Sherman is the most boring to watch. He doesn't do anything.

    Anyone who answers with FIVE players in this thread is a bandwagon fan of anything, including the Texans. :eek:
