    Top 5 QB

    1. Marino: No RB to help loosen the coverages of the defenses, held the records for how long and only lost them because Favre NEVER misses a game

    2. Favre: How can he not be? He holds almost every passing record there is. He had a dominating defense when he won the SB but he has done this all without a "true" #1 WR, though I still think DD is a #1.

    3. Manning(subject to move up): Sure he has a great offensive team if he stays healthy he will break all of favre' records.

    4. Elway: Sure they cheated on the salary cap the year they beat us but he was an original at his position and really quite the stud QB. He took some marginal talent to the super bowl it seemed like every year.

    5. Montanta: He started the 49ers and Young definately benefited from Montana starting up thet offensive juggernaught.



    4.
    Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

      I can see Elway, Montana, Unitas, and Graham. No way to Marino, Baugh, and Tarkenton in my book.

      Graham? The guy was far more of a runner than a passer. His offense was a T formation, for pete sakes. How in the hell can you say he is a great QB compared to modern QBs?

      IMO, it is IMPOSSIBLE to compare pre-Super Bowl era QBs with Super Bowl era QBs. The game really did not start to become what it is today until the AFL-NFL merger.

      A great football player? Absolutely. Graham's leadership and talent is unquestionable. However, he can't be viewed as a great QB by modern standards...he didn't play the same game that exists today.
      Otto Graham is always listed any top QB of ALL TIME bc he played in the Championship game 10 years in a row. Graham wasn't an old time running QB. Sure he played in the T formation, not unlike the one Starr played in. Many people point to the team he played on as the first modern era team. They had a sophisticated down-field passing attack and would routinely whip the ball down field attacking D's like teams of today do.

      Graham and Sammy Baugh deserve mention on any all time list because they were forerunners of the modern pro game.

        Elway did more than Favre did with much, much less. Brett isn't a big game performer and that really hurts him.
        Pass Jessica's Law and keep the predators behind bars for 25 years minimum. Vote out liberal, SP judges. Enforce all immigrant laws!
