Some notes

+ California, Louisiana and Pennsylvania, especially Western PA, are the big winners.

+ Odd to see Michigan, and only on a technicality, so under-represented. Same goes for Texas which waited deep into the Super Bowl series to find itself on the list with Drew Brees.

+ Expect to see more from California and mostly likely Florida in the coming years as prep quarterbacks continue to stream out of these two states.

+ Will there ever be another SB quarterback from Western PA or is the era of the "Yinzer" signal caller over?

+ Canada made the list!
