Fair rankings

Brady at 2
Marino at 6
Moon at 16

Overrated

Montana at 1
Brees at 5 (Top 10 QB but shouldn't be ranked above Marino and Manning)
Elway at 7
Aikman at 22
Bradshaw at 23

Underrated
Manning at 8 (How the frick is Manning an inferior QB to Elway?)
Steve Young at 14 (Was basically the original Aaron Rodgers in terms of efficiency and statistical dominance)
Favre at 17 (Should be in the top 10)
Rodgers at 19 (Another WTF ranking)

Anyone who would put Joe Montana over Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, or Johnny Unitas is either a troll or has never actually looked at an NFL game.

25. John Brodie


The fact that Dan Fouts isn't on the list nulls the whole thing, but I'll add my $0.02.

Too low: Elway, Marino, Manning, Young, Rodgers

Too high: Brees (maybe at the bottom of the top 10), Aikman (shouldn't be on it), Bradshaw (ditto).

Seriously? No Dan Fouts?

Looking at the list as it is I would drop Troy Aikman off of it. Some might disagree but I would put Kurt Warner and Ben Roethlisberger over him.

It might have been easy to dismiss Kurt as just a product of the system Martz had in St. Louis, especially when Marc Bulger came in and had some success after him. But after he took the Cardinals on his back and nearly won a Super Bowl near the end of his career, that said a lot right there. Not many of his peers in the hall of fame took two teams to Super Bowls.

Ben Roethlisberger played like shite in his first Super Bowl, but he more than made up for it later. He came up with a clutch TD in his second one against the Cardinals.

Big Ben is currently #7 all time in passing yards with 52,725

#9 in TDs with 340

#11 in completion% at 64.1%

#10 tied with Matt Ryan for passer rating at 94.

Your top 4 is spot on for the time frames.

Staubach is too high. Favre too low. Manning way too low. Agree with your 1 & 2.

Sorry but Dan Fouts >>> Ken Anderson and many others on that list. Fouts was a boss.


Your top 3 are spot-on, though. Staubach is too high. I’d also put Bradshaw higher — I mean the guy was 4-0 in Super Bowls, including multiple wins over Staubach

Teams arent' taking Brees over Marino or Elway or Manning or Rodgers.

But I'd take Brees over 14. Young
