This is a tough question to answer, as it is very subjective and many criteria one can go by to determine which is the best quarterback in the NFL. Does one judge by how many Super Bowl victorites? Sure a quarterback is a key part to a team, but some teams that win Super Bowls don't have quarterbacks that measure up statistically compared to others. Teams can win with a great defense. Do you judge by passing yards, touchdowns or quarterback ranking?

I will judge by a combination of all of the above.
Tom Brady leads all active quarterbacks in Super Bowl victories with three. Ben Roethlisberger has two, but I don't think either are the best in the NFL today. Brady is perhaps the best in the last decade but going by today, he isn't the same player as he was a few seasons ago. Roethlisberger isn't either.

I think Peyton Manning is still the best quarterback in the game. He has a Super Bowl victory, has thrown for over 52,000 yards, 381 touchdowns and at age 34 is still one of the highest rated quarterbacks by passer rating in the league. He could end his career with the most yards and touchdown passes in a career.

The best young quarterback who could end up having a Hall of Fame career is Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers. He has over 10,000 yards passing and 86 touchdowns in just 2 1/2 years as a starting quarterback.

The “best quarterback” is usually a matter of opinion and fan loyalty. Who is the best? Why, my favorite team’s quarterback, of course! Don’t you agree? Why not? (This is how bar fights get started!).
The NFL maintains a quarterback rating system. They consider some of the following statistics: completion percentage, yards gained, number of touchdowns thrown and interceptions. They put all of these into a mix and come up with a passer rating. This year’s leader is Tom Brady of the New England Patriots. Of course, those stats could change with next week’s game.
Even those numbers are a bit misleading. What if a receiver drops the ball? That is not the quarterback’s fault, right? So even with these numbers and statistics, the question is still hard to quantify. But Tom Brady has three Super Bowl rings and a gorgeous wife. Any more questions?

The best quarterback in the NFL today? Well that question can have a variety of different answers. If you want to look at someone who holds almost every record in history and who has started more consecutive games than anyone in history at 291, you would have to go with Brett Favre. You also have to look at Peyton Manning because the Colts are pretty much one-dimensional on offense but yet Manning seems to find different ways to put up huge numbers every season.

While I’m not a fan of the Patriots, you have to enter Tom Brady into the conversation as well being that he helped led New England to three titles in four seasons. So I guess you would have to narrow the criteria somewhat to truly determine what quarterback in the game today can be considered the greatest.
