Johnny Unitas is without a doubt the better of the two of them. But Unitas wasn't in the public eye as much as Namath was. Both quarterbacks were considered to be the best the NFL/AFL had to offer at that point in time but Namath got the headlines because the guy wasn't afraid to flaunt himself. I mean...this is a guy who is rumored to have gotten into bed with Jackie Kennedy, post-JFK.





Are you forgetting Tarkenton, Staubach, Romain Gabriel, Bart Starr, Ken Anderson.

Tarkenton


Saw his greatest success in the 70s, long after Namath left his prime.

quote:

Staubach


Didn't come into the league until 1969 and didn't really hit his stride until the mid-70s.

quote:

Romain Gabriel


Never was a league MVP. Namath did that twice around the same time Gabriel was in his prime.

quote:

Bart Starr


Was not nearly the passer Unitas and Namath were. He also was leaving the NFL around the same time Namath was entering it.

quote:

Ken Anderson


Did not enter the prime of his career until the late-70s/early-80s. Namath had been retired from the league by then.
