Agree. 2nd tier sounds bad, but it's not. There should be a better name, because a lot of great QB's were 2nd tier. Warren Moon, Eli, and many more very prolific and accomplished QB's didn't quite make the top tier. They should be honored, not labeled with a misunderstood rating. In reality, the top tier QB's are freaks, the 2nd tier QB's are excellent.
And by that standard, Warren Moon would be the greatest second-tier QB ever. Threw for a zillion yards in the CFL before even being accepted into the NFL, then his defenses kept blowing leads in playoff games. Also often-mentioned as having the tightest spiral in NFL history.
