Is Chargers QB Philip Rivers a top 5 QB yet?

What do you think? I know that they were calling Rivers a top 10 QB a few weeks ago. But after some of these great SD wins and seeing Rivers show off his arm. Would you call Phil Rivers a top 5 QB now?

Personally, this is my top 5 order:

1- P. Manning

2- T. Brady

3- B. Roslesburger (sp?)

4- P. Rivers

5- B. Farve

then come drew brees kurt warner and so on.

Update:

steak2286. you think i would base a players ability to play on 1 game? honestly? look as his performance on the past 5 games, all Ws btw. todays win, imo, tops it off and shows how consistent his talent? really, who bases something on 1 game? you might, but i dont.

    I think that Petyon Manning, Drew Brees, Tom Brady and Kurt Warner are all definitely better than Rivers, and Roethelisberger might be, so if he's not top 5 he's top 6.

    HEllz YES he had the most thrown yards last year and i think that brett farve is number 3 philp is number 5 and rosleiburger shouldnt be on it. yeah yeah you can argue he doesnt have a superbowl win but.

    Yeah I 'd love to have him on my team. I like your list however I think it is a top 7. I'd have a hard time deciding on who to leave out. Of course you can use the "who has a ring" argument. But I don't know who I'd leave out. I also would add Mc. Nabb, he has never really had any good receivers to throw to.

    It is nice to see all of the great QB play in the NFL. I think Rivers has a ton of talent, and with a little luck can win a few superbowls during his career
