I see them all equally and, yet, equally flawed. Just, in different ways.

I went with Blake, as he did more with less talent around him and I don't think that will be debated by anyone.  Plus, if the word is "underrated", Fitz has gotten so many opportunities to play, he should be able to be a fairly solid player.  How many QBs got this many starting gigs?  He has underrated athleticism and he is a smart guy, but for underrated I think it is lost on people what this team was with Klingler and then after the 2nd string QB goes down, Blake makes the team interesting.  He was the starter of the Pro Bowl for an irrelevant Bengals team.  He put a first round pick on the bench.  

I like Fitz, but I wouldn't call him underrated.
