USC QBs Overrated

How many other Caveman QBs you got?
How many brain cells do you have? Very few I surmise.

Enough to know that Knute Rockne could not play in todays NFL regardless of your Idiotic charts and graphs.

Here is one way to answer the question: What is QBU:
I am looking at the PFR career Production Average of the Top 250 players in NFL history...or at least since they did measuring of this which is like from 1960 forward.
Of these 250 Top players, 45 of them are QBs. So....the following are schools that had multiple QBs come out of there in the Top 45 productive QBs since the 60s:
Purdue has 3: Dawson, Griese, Brees
Alabama has 3: Namath, Starr, Stabler
Stanford has 2; Brodie, Elway
NC St. has 2: Roman Gabriel and Phillip Rivers
Cal has 2: Aaron Rodgers and Craig Morton
And that is it...all other schools had just one.
Now, this leaves out a lot of guys. Because it is a career production average.....guys with longer careers got more points.
Take Miami Fla.....the only QB in the top 45 CA was: Vinny Testaverde.......meaning that Kosar and Kelly were not in there. And anyone that knows anything knows that Kelly and Kosar were better QBs than Vinny.....yet that is how these particular numbers came out.

Steve Bono sucked.
The criteria is Super Bowls winning QBs and not guys passing out cups of Gatorade.
That was NOT the criteria. The criteria was simply: What school has put out the most Good QBs? (the exact quote from Tour was: "what school can be considered QBU"....and this from Dutch: So what school is the best for QBs? Alabama? Miami? Notre Dame?
Winning SBs was only a part of that. Being in the HOF is a part of that. Being a good QB was a part of that. Other things were part of that.

Bono blows.
Bono, Maddox and Shroeder were not good QBs on any planet.
Is that all the Browns want? A good QB. Gee, you would think that they would be after a great QB

You are not even smart enough to know that Knute Rockne was a college coach.....and NOT an NFL player.
You are showing your ignorance with every stroke of the key. If you want to keep making a fool of yourself...by all means do so.. otherwise I would just go watch TV or something.

Didn't say Bono etc. were any good. But you have heard of them. That was all that was about.
And the course of this discussion has fuyuck all to do with what the Browns want.
Are you seriously so goddam dumb that you cannot follow along with a thread?

You never fail to disappoint and make an butt of yourself. Good job.
The Akron Pros were a professional football team For his 1914 recruiting efforts, Parratt signed the usual big-name players, which consisted of a lineup that changed from week to week, with just enough stars on hand to guarantee a win. However, in 1914, he also employed several former Notre Dame stars, including the legendary Knute Rockne

Really....you never heard of Tommy Maddox, Jay Schroeder, Steve Bono:

This is really a dumb conversation. Tennessee is a good example... how many good QBs were before Manning, or Miami (OH) (Big Ben), Michigan (Brady), Cal (Rodgers), and so on... which college they went to means absolutely nothing...

If you are using a stat as a measuring stick that does not include Jim Kelly, I would get rid of that stat.

Never said that Rockne never played football somewhere.....I said that he never played in the NFL...and was known as a coach. In 1914 the NFL did not yet exist.
And you had no clue that Rockne even played semi-pro type ball for the Akron Pros until you googled him.
But...since you say you know so much about this.....why can you not know who played in the 1990s?

It is called: Entertainment.
And actually....it DOES mean something if you are a fan of a particular school.
(and FYI, Cal had two former QBs start Super Bowls before Aaron Rodgers: Craig Morton and Joe Kapp)

Fair point.....but, I had used any number of other measuring sticks: QBs in the HOF, QBs who started in Super Bowls; QBs who were drafted in the first round....etc. This was just another poker chip in the ante. If you have another measuring stick to suggest.....I would be glad to flesh it out.
