archie sucked

why can't people get over this? Great qbs are great qbs no matter where they go.

I get he played in a defensive era, and a lot of qbs with equally porous numbers from that era are celebrated, but he sucked

accept it.

You see stats and didn't see him play so please...

Also he played with a oblique his entire career.

Just another thing you don't know.

Thank God you said it before I did. That guy is so much beloved because of his aw shucks, gawrsh! personality. He was nothing special at qb as a pro. All you dreamers that think Manning would have somehow been a HOF player on another team (or even worse think he should still be in the HOF because he was so good on such a bad team) either never watched him play or have simply let your emotional attachment to the guy get the better of you.
Was he terrible? Yes, sometimes he was. Did he have some good moments? Yes, but he was FAR from great.

If he sucked then virtually all the 70s qbs sucked because none of the qbs from that era have very good numbers.
