Have all been top 10 in yardage over the last 5 years.
In all fairness, that's a decent enough list minus Freeman. Even Orton and Schaub provide enough QB stability and resume to allow their teams to fill other holes and stop playing QB musical chairs. I will say that there is probably a lot of garbage-time yardage on that list, but again, the top yardage earners tend to be the Rodgers/P. Manning/Pig Ben/Rivers types and these guys logically make up the middle tier mostly.
