Whose your top 5 NFL QBs all-time?

[DAWG61]

With Brees breaking Manning's record it's time to revisit this topic.

1. Brady
2. Peyton
3. Montana
4. Brees
5. Rodgers

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

1. Brady 2. Peyton 3. Montana 4. Elway 5. Brees for my since 1975 list. All-time though - doesn't Unitas have to be on the list? Rodgers is not there yet, but will probably bump one of them before he is done. Elway managed to get some pretty average Denver teams to the Super Bowl early in his career.

 

[57stratdawg]

Some combination of Brady, Marino, Peyton, Montana and Brees.

If Marino played in today’s NFL, he’d put up bigger numbers than anyone.

 

[MSUDC11]

With Brees breaking Manning's record it's time to revisit this topic.

1. Brady
2. Peyton
3. Montana
4. Brees
5. Rodgers

I tend to agree with this ranking. As great as Brees is, I think he’s somehow undervalued, still. I don’t know if any QB in NFL history is more valuable to his franchise than Brees is to the Saints. He’s been cursed with having some truly horrendous defenses backing him up in NOLA. He has single handledly caused teams that should have won 2 or 3 games without him to win 7 or 8 and caused 7 or 8 win teams to win 11 or 12.

1. Montana
2. Brady
3. Marino
4. Brees
5. Peyton

Obviously I don’t subscribe to the “rings=best” ranking system.

 

[8dog]

If every team had the same surrounding cast give me rodgers before anyone

 

[AlCoDog]

I don’t know. He would be hard pressed to end up with a better WR duo than Duper and Clayton.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

In no order. Montana Brady Marino Brees Manning.

Brees
Manning
Marino
2A list
Elway
Unitas
Bradshaw
Staubach
Favre

 

[CochiseCowbell]

I'm biased, but for those of you without Elway in your top 5 is he 6th?

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

1. Montana
2. Brady
3. Peyton
4. Marino
5. Brees
6. Elway
7. Favre

 

[NWADog]

Out of the QB’s I’ve seen in my life time it’s gotta be these
1. Tom Brady
2. Payton Manning
3. Drew Brees
4. Brett Favre
5. Michael Vick (not because of stats but in his prime he was ELECTRIC and could make some insane plays)

6. Donovan McNabb
7. Steve McNair
8. Kurt Warner (greatest show on turf)
9. Aaron Rodgers

 

[MarkDallas]

1. Dak Prescott
2. Roger Staubach
3. Troy Aikman

Where's Quincy Carter?

 

[HotMop]

My bad, auto-correct.

 

[Maroon Eagle]

1. Brees. Is (or was) there another Saints player worthy of being in the Hall of Fame who played for the Saints at the same time?
2. Brady.
3. Montana.
4. Bradshaw.
5. Elway.
6. Peyton Manning.
7. Rodgers. Might be playing for the worst coaching staff of the QBs on my list.
8. Steve Young.
9. Marino. The best not to win a title.
10. Kurt Warner. If the Cardinals had won the Super Bowl a few years ago, he would be on more top five lists.

Your top 5 is the same as mine. Vick was must-see TV. Can't agree with having Donovan ahead of McNair, Warner, and Rodgers though. I say that as an Eagles fan.

With Brees breaking Manning's record it's time to revisit this topic.

1. Brady
2. Peyton
3. Montana
4. Brees
5. Rodgers

Unitas?

 

[MSUDawgFan86]

1. Montana
2. Brees
3. Brady
4. Steve Young
5. Peyton Manning

 

[MSUDawgFan86]

Unitas?

David Murray? Is that you?

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

One Gritty MF!

 

[MSUDawgFan86]

I'm biased, but for those of you without Elway in your top 5 is he 6th?

No I don’t. Elway had double digit interceptions every year of his career. He completed over 60% of his passes in only 3 seasons. He’s an all-time great for sure but When comparing all-time greats he doesn’t measure up as well with others statistically.

 

[CookieMonster.sixpack]

1. Unitas (the Beatles of the QB position)
2. Montana (the Jordan of the QB position)
3. Brady (5 rings can’t be ignored)
4. Elway (probably the most athletic of all time)
5. Favre (the Cal Ripken of QBs)
6. Marino (the stats don’t lie and it wasn’t a pass happy era)
7. Brees
8. Kelly/Tarkenton
9. Rogers (room to move up)
10. Staubach

You might notice who I left off. He is the most overrated QB in football history in my opinion. The 2 times he won it all, his defense absolutely carried him through the playoffs. I’d take all 11 of these and possibly a handful more before him.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

1. Brees
2. A. Manning
3. Bobby Hebert
4. Aaron Brooks
5. Jim Everett

6. Jeff Blake
7. Taysom Hill

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

This is the correct players, but it’s
Brady
Manning
Brees
Montana
Elway
It’s amazing to me how Brees has never won a NFL MVP award. He’s been the epitome of the most valuable player since his arrival in NO.

 

[Maroon Eagle]

Tarkenton— nice. I thought about putting him in my top ten but didn’t.

 

[HumpDawgy]

I go by Super Bowl success and not necessarily passer ratings since the league has changed drastically since the early years. It was a more defensive game back in the 60s and 70s.

1. Tom Brady
2. Joe Montana
3. Terry Bradshaw
4. Peyton Manning
5. Roger Staubach

 

[jethreauxdawg]

So the guy who was the all time passing leader

You might notice who I left off. He is the most overrated QB in football history in my opinion. The 2 times he won it all, his defense absolutely carried him through the playoffs. I’d take all 11 of these and possibly a handful more before him.

Until 3 days ago isn’t it in your top 15? That’s a bold call

 

[bonedaddy401]

1. Brady
2. Montana
3. Peyton
4. Favre
5. Brees

Elway is my 6th
Marino is my 7th

 

[Predestined]

Sammy Baugh, Sid Luckman, Otto Graham, Johnny Unitas, Norm Van Brocklin

 

[Shamoan]

 

[StillTbonewannabe]

Peyton inflated his stats every chance he got. 1st and goal from the 1 and he might pass 3 times in a row. Almost any QB would have won that last superbowl. He was a complete noodle arm at that time.

 

[aTotal360]

Montana. Elway. Brady. Manning. After that it's a tossup.

 

[CookieMonster.sixpack]

Peyton inflated his stats every chance he got. 1st and goal from the 1 and he might pass 3 times in a row. Almost any QB would have won that last superbowl. He was a complete noodle arm at that time.

He also threw more picks than TDs in the playoffs both times he won the Super Bowl. The guy was lucky to have a ring and a terrible teammate. I mean Tennessee missed him so much they won the natty the second he left. His entire roster during his Indy tenure was set up to make him look as good as possible. He’s obviously a very talented player but I’d take all the guys I listed in their prime over Peyton. He’s overrated. Not bad. But overrated.
