God why is Staubach so underrated still? What a damn beast. You hear Montana a lot but Staubach needs to be in the same conversation as Montana IMO.
Also I think your rankings are a little unfair to Bart Starr with this system. You are getting him on the downslop of his career too much due to when he played.
It's possible that Staubach doesn't get as much love due to his slight lack of longevity. Granted, he made the playoffs every year he started but he only started for 8 seasons. He's one of my favorites though.
As for Starr or any of the other very early players (pre SB) the system I used was slightly skewed in their favor due to the fact that there were no 1 or 2 point rounds for them. If they made the playoffs they received a minimum of 3 or 4 points. It's why I left Otto Graham off the list entirely. From 1946 to 1955 he made 42 points (seven 5's and three 4's). In only 3 of those years did it require more than one game to win it all.
