I know Clapton is God, but is he a better blues guitarist than Peter Green.

I don't know who's better but Clapton has produced a lot more stuff over the years to judge by, hasn't he?

If the topic is British Blues guitarists, I'd toss Kim Simmonds into the competition. Not as high brow perhaps as those other two, but a talented guitarist who knows how to serve up a lot of fun blues rock + boogie.
