Of course I pick Eli's Division.
I pick Fred Flinstone because its grape and has flip flops
AFC west
Rivers > Romo (the stat machines)
Palmer = Vick (both had injury issues, Vick better athlete, Palmer better passer IMO)
Payton > RG3 (the newest QB's to the Division)
Eli > Cassel (odd men out)
Way too many question marks in both divisions to judge. Vick, Cassel and Romo are never healthy. Palmer, Griffin and Peyton need to grasp new offenses. Rivers is carrying the Chargers and Eli is Eli.
NFC South has some pretty good QB's as well.

NFC East
You're comparing one qb to another, he's asking overall not head to head.. I could just as easily say
Eli>Rivers
Romo>Cassell
RG3<Peyton
Vick=Palmer (I disagree); and have the end result being NFC East on top
The question marks in NFC East are RG3 and Vick's health. Eli and Romo have been solid QB's.
However in the AFC West it's going to be how Peyton does in Denver and if Palmer gets a groove with Oakland. Cassell hasn't shown much at all as a starting QB in KC.
I will ask you this.. If you're an NFL Def Coordinator, are you more afraid of facing a healthy Vick or healthy Palmer? It's a no-brainer imo.

There are Questions for every quarterback going into the season, so sorry I find that a bad argument.
The whole who would I rather face question...I'm always afraid of a running back playing Quarterback i guess. Doesn't mean I think he is better then Palmer just more annoying to stop.
And if were playing the Health game...A Healthy Peyton is better then every other quarterback in both divisions sooo...yeahh
Edit- I would just like to add, if the question was which division had better teams, I would 100% agree the NFC east are better
If I had to pick a set of these for an all-star team, I'd 100% pick NFC East.
I'd say:
1) Eli
2) Peyton (have to put him second until we see how the arm is doing)
3) Rivers
4) Romo
5) Vick
6) Cassell
7) RG3
8) Palmer
So, if you add up their ranking with the lower number the better, NFC = 17; AFC = 19
Slight edge to NFC East, but it's really a wash.

I think that I would flip-flop Rivers and Romo (neither has won a SB but Romo's numbers were sick last year and Rivers had an off year), and would put Palmer ahead of RGIII and Cassell. </P>
Still gives you the same 17-19 score . . . .. </P>
