He’s not even the best of his generation in that regard


Most of these conversations are mired by the fact that people apply two completely different criteria for determining GOAT status: great passers and great winners.

Great passers: Manning, Elway, Marino, Favre
Great winners: Brady, Montana, Unitas, Graham

Ultimately, the Brady--Manning debate will not be resolved unless someone comes along who is both a great passer and a great winner.

Passing is the skill a QB can control. Winning is a product of team. All the guys you listed below as winners were also good passers and the passers you listed won except Marino. Brady and Montana are 2 most mentioned as GOAT. Both played and won multiple SB with coaches considered the GOAT in their time and for stable organizations with owners that put winning first.
P Manning won with Dungy and Gary Kubiak he got to a SB with Jim Caldwell and John Fox

In the end it’s largely a “who’s the hottest model in the swimsuit issue?
