It being National Left-Handers day, ESPN did a feature on the top left-handed NFL quarterbacks.

They are as follows:

Steve Young of the 49ers.

Ken "The Snake" Stabler of the Raiders.

Boomer Esiason of Bengals.

Michael Vick of the Falcons/Eagles.

Mark Brunell who made his name with the Jaguars.

I was a Dallas fan at the time. I just couldn’t believe no other team realized that SF was getting their next generation QB.

He was as good as Brunel, and he lasted longer than Vick.
The other 3? I don't think there's much to debate.
