Hall of Fame QB win percentages
-
Here are
Randall Cunningham drafted 1985 vs. Steve Young drafted 1984
Cunny............Young
82-52-1..........94-49 winning record as starter
2429/4289.....2667/4149 atts/comps
56.5%...........64.3% compl %
29979..........33,124 yards
207..............232 TD passes
4.8%..........5.6% TD%
134............107 Ints.
3.1%.........2.6%
7.0............8.0 ypa
12.3..........12.4 ypc
186.2.......196.0 ypg
81.5..........96.8 rating
21 ...........14 4th Qtr. comebacks
26...........17 Game winning drives
775........722 carries
4928......4239 yards
6.4........5.9 ypc
30.6......25.1 ypg
35.......43 TDs rushing
So, these comparison stats are very very close. Young's shorter passing game as with others gives him the completion pct. But again, when it come down to it....they got almost the exact same production out of their passing game. For each pass caught it was 12.3 to12.4.
There is no advantage at all in the rushing game. Cunningham comes out better in fact.
The one major difference?
Young won a SB.
I conjecture that if Randall Cunningham had won a SB, he would be in the HOF right now.
So, these comparison stats are very very close
No ... They ... Are ... Not.
Again look at the percentages... more TDS, less Ints, completes far more passes, higher yard per attempt, higher rating ... these are "the stats" that are used to compare passers. No one is cherry picking.
Esiason and Cunningham were very good quarterbacks who had nice careers. I think everyone understands that. You keep comparing them to one of the greatest passers of All-Time and you're just going to keep coming up short.
Yes, longevity is definitely something to take into consideration, but Young's eight seasons as a starter were so phenomenal that he was a first-ballot Hall of Famer. Everyone sees it but you.
So those are his stats after he became the starter in SF. He averaged a 102.4 QB rating over the course of his entire career as a starter. Boomer never had a 100 rating as a full-time starter and Cunningham did it just once.
Being good for a long period of time is not > than being great for a not quite as long period of time.
Based on their entire career productivity, if you give all three guys 1000 attempts and you have:
Young 643 completions,8,000 yards, 56 Tds, 26 Ints
Cunningham 566 completions, 7,000 yards 48 TDs 31 Ints
Esiason 570 completions, 7,300 yards 47 TDs 35 Ints
One of these passers is Clearly more effective.
I mean do you want more yards and TDs with less ints or not?
Same era. Two very good QBs and one Great One.
Seven consecutive Pro Bowls, Led the entire league in passing 6 times in seven years. record as a starter in SF 91-33 ... that is greatness.
Would Randall Cunningham be in the Hall of Fame if they had won the SB in 98? Absolutely not. Because he was Randall Cunningham, he wasn't Steve Young.

Who are you talking about now? Esiason, Cunningham?
Again look at the percentages... more TDS, Esiason had more TDs
less Ints, completes far more passes, Esiason completed far more passes
higher yard per attempt,
Yards per catch just as important.
higher rating
Then I assume you feel that Chad Pennington, Trent Green, Jeff Garcia, Daunte Culpepper, David Garrard are all better....since they all have a better passer rating.
... these are "the stats" that are used to compare passers. No one is cherry picking.
Yards, yards per completion,
YPC the same for Young, Cunningham and Esiason
Esiason and Cunningham were very good quarterbacks who had nice careers. I think everyone understands that. You keep comparing them to one of the greatest passers of All-Time and you're just going to keep coming up short.
I am not comparing them to one of the greatest of all time....I am comparing them to Steve Young.
A lot of these guys don't come up short. In many it is "the other guy" that has the better stat.
Yes, longevity is definitely something to take into consideration, but Young's eight seasons as a starter were so phenomenal that he was a first-ballot Hall of Famer. Everyone sees it but you.
His eight years were no better than Stabler's 8 years....at winning. He had some better stats...primarily due to his lower int. rate...but that is about IT
So those are his stats after he became the starter in SF. He averaged a 102.4 QB rating over the course of his entire career as a starter. Boomer never had a 100 rating as a full-time starter and Cunningham did it just once.

Warren Moon.....really a lesser QB than Steve Young is in the HOF.
Zombo
Similar career stats. As I said, I was giving some contemporaries to him who had similar stats....and yes, they are "similar".
Nevertheless....my point remains: Young.....not as good as Elway, Marino, Kelly, Favre
Stabler just as good.

Stabler is basically like a top 30 quarterback......yet every single list I can find....every single one.....has Young as a top 10 all time qb....
So, while you are certainly allowed your opinion, I do believe you stand alone....here are a bunch of top 10 all time qb lists....most are pretty much the same.....every single one has young.....and zero have Stabler, Cunningham or Esiason......I challenge you to find a top 10 list with any of those 3 and no Steve Young....

I can list 10 other better QBs with the snap of my finger......as I said, he barely made top 5 of his own era.
He fit his system well, yes. That is what I see.

Again look at the percentages... more TDS, Esiason had more TDs
less Ints, completes far more passes, Esiason completed far more passes
higher yard per attempt,
Yards per catch just as important.
Sigh. I said look at the percentages ... more Tds and you response is that Esiasion has more TDS. You even quoted the word "percentages", how did you miss that one?
Young completed 64% of his passes to Esiason's 57%. AGAIN ... I said percentages. AGAIN ... it's not close. Being good for 12 years is not better than being great for 8.
Yards per completion is not just as important. I am 10-10 for 120 yards and you are 1-10 for 12 yards, we each have the same yards per completion, but I have moved my team tens times as far as you have moved yours.
That is why experts rely on yards/ attempt.
In fact, if the yards per completions are close, which they are in the they case of Boomer, Ranbo and Young, then that plays in to the hands of the more accurate passer, because they are both completing equally long pass plays, but the more accurate passer is completing far more, resulting in far more yards and offensive production.
Boomer's average per completion is 12.8 and he completes 57% of his throws, so if he throws 100 time he has gotten my team 730 yards. Young's aver per completion is 12.4 and he completes 64% of his throws, so if he throws 100 times he has gotten my team 800 yards. Which number is bigger, 800 or 730?
Do you know who led the NFL in yards per completion last year? Brian Hoyer.
Problem was, he was 32nd in completion percentage.
So you have Brian Hoyer throwing the ball 438 times and Tony Romo throwing the ball 435 times. Brian Hoyer had 13.7 ypc and Romo had 12.2. Sounds like Hoyer is the better QB, right? Except that Romo completed 69.9% of his passes which resulted 3,705 yards to Hoyer's 3,326.
Now if you apply this to Young and Esiason, Esiason is completing a slightly longer play, but Young is converting 64% of them to Esiason's 55% which means more yards for your offense. Plus, accuracy can keep you on the field.
There is no fucking doubt that Steve Young was better than Boomer Esiason. They played at the same time, in similar systems, and Young has a higher comp%, higher y/a, higher Td%, lower int%, More Pro Bowls, More All Pros, More passing championships and a Super Bowl.
There is Young's years as a starter in SF. Bold is "Led the League". 5 Times in accuracy, 4 times in TDs, twice in int%, 5 times in yards per attempt. 6 times in rating ... in seven years! If you are the best in the league at your job almost every year, you go to the Hall. It is excellence.
Then I assume you feel that Chad Pennington, Trent Green, Jeff Garcia, Daunte Culpepper, David Garrard are all better....since they all have a better passer rating.
No, I don't. You know why? Because I am not mentally Retarded. I am able to put this all into context like an adult. I understand that some guys have pretty numbers but they weren't the best. They weren't leading the league in passing every year and they weren't champions. Young played alongside some damn good QBs of his era and he matches up well against all of them. He was deadly accurate, highly intelligent, extremely athletic and he produced win after win after win and had his team at or near the top of the offensive charts every single year. None of these guys are anything like that.
You may not think Steve Young was the best QB of the 90's but his greatness cannot be denied. Every week of every year he was considered one of the very best, if not THE best of his profession. I remember, I was there. I was there for Kenny Stabler too, and he was very good and n argument could be made for the Hall. In my opinion he was not the best of the bunch of the 70's but he was probably 5th best and that is a damn good career.
I've got no problem with Stabler ... but when you start arguing Boomer and Cunningham versus Young ... get that weak shit out of here.

Your beloved Ranbo had his only great year in Denny Green's WCO, should we throw out his Vikings years because he fit the system?
So all these writers that voted Young All-Pro and HOF were wrong and you are right?

No....again, I was only comparing similarities of the Esiason's and Cunninghams, not necessarily arguing that they were better.
But yes, I am right when I say that the following contemporaries of Young were better than Young:
Favre
Montana (if you consider him a contemporary)
Elway
Marino
Kelly
Aikman
I also do not believe that Young accomplished one iota more than Stabler...except throw fewer ints.

Yea, here is a list: He is at best 6th among his own contemporaries:
Favre
Kelly
Elway
Marino
Aikman
All better. That means I only need to find 5 more from the rest of football history. Let's see:
How about Peyton, Brady, Brees
How about Graham, Unitas, Starr, Staubach, Bradshaw, Tarkenton, Baugh, Luckman

All better. That means I only need to find 5 more from the rest of football history. Let's see:
How about Peyton, Brady, Brees
How about Graham, Unitas, Starr, Staubach, Bradshaw, Tarkenton, Baugh, Luckman
We know thats your opinion. And you know our opinion.
My point is that I presented an argument showing a consensus supporting Young as a top 10 all timer...
So, Ill ask again....can you produce the same to support your views?.....got any lists that show anyone else supports your argument(or do you just assume you know more than everyone else, including the HOF committee).(10 lists would be nice, since I easily did it).....or some top 10 lists w/o young?(cause I could get 20 more with him)...
Yea, here is a list: He is at best 6th among his own contemporaries:
Favre
Kelly
Elway
Marino

You're boy Kenny might get in after all. Got nominated as one of the Senior finalists for the Hall. I'd post the link but can't do it on this computer.

plus a coach or contributor
T.O will have to wait a while.
