The Post’s Steve Serby ranks the 12 quarterbacks left standing in the NFL playoffs:
1. Peyton Manning:Â The greatest regular-season quarterback in history. 55 TD passes? At age 37? You kidding me?
2. Tom Brady: Whatever your name is — Bob Kraft could flank wide — he’ll make you better.
3. Drew Brees: A 5,000-yard throwing machine especially lethal inside Superdome.
4. Aaron Rodgers: Would be ranked higher, but he’s rusty (but still dangerous) following collarbone exile.
5. Russell Wilson: A relentlessly resourceful leader who can beat you with his arm, head and legs.
6. Philip Rivers: Fiery leader chasing first Super Bowl in renaissance season under Mike McCoy.
7. Andrew Luck: Second playoff in two seasons and never out of a game in the fourth quarter. Future Super Bowl MVP.
8. Colin Kaepernick: Freakish dual threat who loves The Big Game.
9. Nick Foles: Big-armed, unflappable, efficient counterbalance to LeSean McCoy.
10. Cam Newton: Another dual threat who has matured into a true leader.
11. Alex Smith: Playoff-hardened and more than a game manager.
12. Andy Dalton: The Red-Faced Rifle has 0 TDs, 4 INTs in his two playoff losses.
