  • I'm a Staubach fan too- probably the only Dallas player I liked in that era. Here goes my attempt at the list:

    1) Otto Graham

    2) John Elway (SOB ruined our 80s)

    3) Johnny Unitas

    4) Joe Montana

    5) Fran Tarkenton

    6) Brett Favre (don't like what he's become today though, a prima donna like Jim Kelly)

    7) Terry Bradshaw

    😎 Roger Staubach

    9) Dan Marino

    10) Dan Fouts

    Honorable mention- Brian Sipe, Steve Young, Warren Moon, & Len Dawson

    Favorite QB- Bernie Kosar...too bad his elbow got f-ed up in KC on opening day in 1988...he was truly one of the great deep ball passers ever

  • No real order.....

    Graham

    Manning

    Favre

    Baugh

    Jergunsen

    YA Tittle

    Unitas

    Starr

    Montana

    Layne

    I could take jurgensen off the list except he threw the nicest pass ever, so he makes it....if i had to take him off, I add Kelly or Lamonica.

  • 8. Tom Brady- Although he is fading away, his early years were better than some QB's entire careers.

    What a JOKE! Dude just came off horrific knee surgery...is not fading away....and Is in top 5

  • we can hope, can't we?

    1. Otto Graham- The pioneer of the quarterback position. People would get sick of seeing him if there was an ESPN at the time.

    2. Dan Marino- True QB swag. One of the best.

    3. John Elway- I hate to say it, but he always new how to finish strong.

    4. Brett Favre- Soap Opera of the NFL, with skills to prove it.

    5. Peyton Manning- Most intelligent player to ever play the position.

    6. Troy Aikeman- A little overrated, but a classic nonetheless.

    7. Joe Namath- Another classic, true passion for the position.

    8. Tom Brady- Although he is fading away, his early years were better than some QB's entire careers.

    9. Kurt Warner- Need I say more? He is 39 and still has years left he could play.

    10. Joe Montana- Dynasty will always have its king.

    I think Brett and Peyton could possibly be number 2 and 3 if they win more superbowls. But no one surpasses Otto Graham.

    Maybe its an oversight on your part, but I cannot see any Top 10 list without Unitas being on it. Perhaps you had your reasons. I would like to hear them.

    Well, FWIW, I can't argue much on how this list was put together- Unitas gets under rated perhaps because he played mostly in the 60s.

    Top 25 QBs All-Time

    For one game I still take Manning or Montana over Farve.

    I am not sure about the legitimacy of the formula the guy in your link uses. When he has Drew Bledsoe as a better QB than 5 time champion Bart Starr.

    It is the same problem with the QB rating system.

  • 1. Manny Ramirez

    2. Jim Thome

    3. Travis Hafner

    4. Alex Rodriguez

    5. Barry Bonds

    6. Paul Byrd

    7. Mark McGuire

    8. Sammy Sosa

    9. Rafael Palmero

    10. Bud Selig

    Oh wait...

    FINALLY someone included Staubach.....with under 2 minutes to play & the game on the line, he was the best I ever saw.

    Mike

    Well, Canton Mike, nothing is stopping you from doing your own list and putting whomever you wish onto it. Even your homeboy, Todd Blackledge?

    (If someone is going to mention Joe Germaine, you can mention Todd)

    Ok, but I'll guarantee that Blackledge isn't on it.

    Alphabetically as I would welcome any one of 'em on a team of mine...

    Tom Brady

    John Elway

    Brett Favre

    Otto Graham

    Peyton Manning

    Dan Marino

    Joe Montana

    Bart Starr

    Roger Staubach

    John Unitas

    My personal number 1 is Bart Starr, & I may be the only person to EVER put him #1. The guy was nothing flashy. Just consistent, smart, & clutch. He & Staubach may be the best decision makers I've seen play, but Bart did it a whole lot longer.

    Mike

  • I listed Starr, though in no order.

    If i had, he would rank pretty high....maybe not number 1, but really, when you start a top 10 list, your talking very little between 1 and 10.

    I would be happy with any of them.

  • There has been some discussion on the radio about the place in history of either Brett Favre or Peyton Manning if either should win the Super Bowl. My single question survey is:

    1. Who are your Top 5-10 or however many you wish to list QBs in NFL history, and where do Manning and Favre fit, and will either of them move up on the list with another title to their credit?

    Favre is top 5 probably(although a little overrated), Manning is probably the best regular season QB of all-time, but his constent failure in the PO's bumps him from the top 5 IMO. Yes, he did win a SB, but he's the only QB in HISTORY to win it while throwing more picks than TD's in the playoffs. His level of play drops significantly once the postseason begins.
