Nothing you ever write, Ken, could be called "clickbait" because there is no incentive to post other than to have people read interesting content. There are no ads. No eyeballs are counted. The same is not true of virtually any other source of information--when a low-information hot take is posted it deserves the clickbait label.

That said, that PFF article if written a year ago would have had the positions for RW3 and Geno reversed. Rank-ordering any group of 32 will exaggerate the differences between 1 and 32 (or between 20 and 28) when there are more likely to be performance tiers as you have discussed previously.

But if I were betting (which I am not) I would say that even with an improved season from Russ, Geno's final stats for 2023 (barring injury for either player) will be superior in completion %, yards, and TDs. Geno just has more weapons and a more complete roster than is the case in Denver.

The fact that they tweet this out with the question "which top-10 quarterback surprised you and who should be much higher," literally inviting readers to criticize them, is all the evidenced you need to know they didn't take this seriously. You don't even have to look at the ranking to know that it was created with the expressed intent to cause a negative reaction from readers.
