Where the hell is Peyton Manning?

He did not rank. Ouch.

Here are some of the Quotes from the debate:

When it comes to the "greatest" QB debate, I look at this way: Which QB would you want starting for your team if you needed to win one game? With that, I'll go with Tom Brady over everybody else. His hatred of losing, combined with his ability to make big plays in crucial situations makes him No. 1 in my book.

Brady does have the unique combination of intangible leadership, championships won, leading his team to a perfect regular season and increasingly great statistics.

True. I thought about Baugh. I like the Brady pick, too, but I think I like him because he reminds me of Montana. Calm, cool and one of those guys who just wins all the time.


One day, Peyton Manning might just break some of Favre's prominent passing records. Any thoughts on where Manning sits on this list?

In head-to-head with Brady in the postseason, he doesn't. And one thing about Brady, who are the other offensive stars around him?

Manning is a great QB, no doubt, and he has the one title. He's one to watch, I think. He still has five years or so left in him, but the Colts are getting old.

In terms of Super Bowl wins, MVPs, Pro Bowls, statistics and leadership ... the short list is Graham, Unitas, Montana, Brady ... not in that order.

I love Marino and idolized him when I attempted to play QB in high school. But I can't call him the greatest ever because of the lack of titles. I want to do it, but I can't.

The problem with polls such as this is that such a high percentage of voters vote based on the team and player they are fans (or rivals) of, that the lack of objectivity makes the results useless. In addition, the majority of votes tend to go too heavily to recent players; predictably, the quarterbacks who played longest ago get the least votes and those that played more recently get the most votes.

Brady and Montana are the two getting the most votes. I think that's an accurate assessment of the Super Bowl era. Starr, Baugh, Unitas..... they're a bit too far back for most people to judge fairly. Even though there's some overlap, it's really not enough for most people.

when he wins 2 more SB's his name may be included in this poll..........until then no way.....

stcjones

How could they put Marino on that list and NOT Manning....Marino won JACK SH^T........and had Tremendous receivers and despite what they say in Doofin lore.....RB's as good as Antowain Smith was....and Brady had much less talent when he won THREE SUPERBOWLS!!!!!

Marino was a stat monster because of Duper Clayton etc........but does not even belong in the same category with the greatest of all time.........

WhiskeyBreath

I'm not. I'd much rather have Manning over Marino.
