1) Aaron Rodgers
2) Bart Starr
3) Don Majikowski
4) John Elway
5) Tom Brady
6) Steve Young
7) Joe Montana
8) Lynn Dickie
9) Roger Staubach
10) Brett Favre

Certainly ahead of anybody in bold.

And an argument could easily be made to put him ahead of the the rest of them.

No one has said he is out, just seems like all the talking heads are saying the writing is on the wall.

We won't know anything for two months.

The only thing that we know right now, is that the decision is going to be made by Jim Irsay.

He beats everyone on that list except for Montana and crushes Montana if you take Super Bowls out of the discussion.

You're putting Brady ahead of Young? That's rich.

Oh, wait, you're one of those "championships are what makes a good player" sorts, aren't you?

Of all team sports, championships in football probably mean the least when talking about greatest ever. Manning's team went from Super Bowl contenders EVERY YEAR to winning the draft lottery. That right there should hold more weight than any championship.

if you had credibility in sports topics, it has all been lost with that list. Chogram is correct about the decision on Manning...look for it at the end of Feb. or right at the beginning of March. i know my gut, i have been discussing with friends that the situation will be ok, and Manning will be in a Colts jersey if healthy this year.

after hearing a interview today i now have a different feeling...actually ready to put money on it, that Manning wont be in a Colts jersey next year...sadly. i pray im wrong, but even Unitas (that wasnt on your list) went to SD at the end of his career.

Steve Young's career rushing touchdowns: 43
Tom Brady's career rushing touchdowns: 10

You can only compare players within their era. Steve Young was playing alongside Brett Favre, John Elway, and Dan Marino, so it's not like his peers were slouches. He was a great quarterback, and he's in the top ten of all time. I think he's better than Brady, and a lot of people agree with me. I can accept someone thinking otherwise, but anyone who thinks he's several places lower than Brady in the all-time greats list is smoking something, or is one of those wack-jobs who thinks that rings equal greatness.

Young also played during the Run focused era... Brady plays in the era where its all about passing the ball. RBs are becoming less and less used as runners so QBs stats are going way up.

Bet he won't leave. Most of this hype is all driven by one source, ESPN. The same gaggle of retards that actually not only predicted Boston for going to the World Series, but winning it too.

I can't let that go happy

It wasn't just ESPN doing it, though. 90% of baseball "talking heads" were predicting this.

Obviously not - this is the same guy that still thinks the Packers are the best team regardless of their win/loss columns. That's either pure devotion or pure stupidity.

I think both.

no way manning stays with Indy....

he wont take a pay cut and Indy wont sit the 1st overall pick of Luck

Manning is due something like 28 million if they don't cut him in March....that's too much out of the salary cap for a team that needs to rebuild



he will be cut and signed with another team....probably a washington or miami or he will retire

i have long wished that would change and no longer be against the qb. he did his job, but them dropping balls, running the wrong route, just not doing what they are paid to do, should be against them, not the qb.

Why should anyone bother to refute your own personal choices? You chose a few stats to try and make your case, I countered them and you ignored that part. It is fairly clear you have no intention of defending your choices, nor should you for that matter.

Because i agree with about 1/5th of your list, which would make it more of a Nickelback list, and everyone knows Nickelback sucks.

I see what this is. This is your attempt to cope with depression, putting Aaron Rodgers at the top of the list tells you that things will be OK next year. Well, they won't. Time to face the facts.

You do realize if the Giants win the Superbowl that then Eli easily surpasses Rodgers on that list, right?



2 rings > 1. Not to mention Eli did it from Wildcard to Superbowl, twice. Very tough to do.

Brady's the best QB in history. Manning's probably 4th or so.

A couple of negatives on Brady would make me hesitate before putting him at number 1.


Aside from 07, never throws the ball down field. Avg completion at the spot of the catch is 4 yards.

He plays poorly when there is a pass rush.


Part of the great YAC yards is a testament to his great accuracy. But the passrush factor is huge. I think if Brady gets drafted by say... Chicago then there is no Tom Brady.

he doesnt throw down the field because he doesnt have people that can run fast enough. He works with what he has. Most QB's cant do that.

Or they put a product on the field that fits his style of play. Short, dink and dunk passes has been his MO his entire career.

2007 was the exception but he had Randy Moss, and Randy Moss made Dante Culpepper look like a god.

you state some ok points, but hardly anything to limit him from any list...then you finish it off with something more moronic than the OP's list.

now to satisfy Cuttlery...

1) Aaron Rodgers - WAY too early to make this ranking
2) Bart Starr - way too many turnovers...must be a green bay thing
3) Don Majikowski - 66 TD's 67 INT's...enough said...again, green bay thing
4) John Elway - could be mentioned, though too high
5) Tom Brady - too low, body of work speaks for itself.
6) Steve Young - sat too long but bottom half of top 10 is OK
7) Joe Montana - for sure top 5.
8) Lynn Dickie - green bay thing, turn over machine
9) Roger Staubach - better than any GB above
10) Brett Favre - Turnover king does not belong in top 10...NO ONE will even come close to those records...EVER...then throw in he loses when it matters most except for one year...and again, green bay thing.

seriously though, what's with GB's history of turning the ball over???
i knew Favre was horrible with that aspect but it seems to be a team thing! WTF are they doing with Rodgers, he doesn't fit their mold!

By this logic, Big Ben is in front of both of them. 3 trips, 2 wins (1 win actually was from wildcard - 2005).

You obviously lost track of the conversation turn, we, at least I, was just saying those who come before Rodgers. And Eli would be one of them and raper. But then again I do not feel Rodgers is even in the top 15 to begin with.



*And actually Rodger's number + wins would still be >>> than Dilfer's blind luck one year.

if we are talking best of all time then favre definitely doesn't belong on the list and neither does rodgers....give rodgers a few more years an i'm sure he will go down as one of the best ever


my list would be


1) Montana
2) Elway
3) Marino
4) Manning
5) Brady
6) Staubach
7) Young
8) Unitas
9) Graham
10) Jim Kelly/Brees

Based on championships alone, Bart Starr is #1.

He won 5 championships in 7 years; 1961, 1962, 1965, 1966 and 1967.


Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw have 4 each.

Brady will probably have 4 after this year, right? So there would be your top 4, which order would then have to depend on stats + awards like MVPs etc etc. Some rating system would have to mathematically formulated for accuracy. *And you know Aikman has 3 so he would be close next in line.

I didn't. I said start with Championships and then put some type of math value to things like passing yards, touchdowns, wins, etc , some with higher values than others, and then let the math sort out the ones that are tied in rings and work down.



I think we are all in agreement that Rodgers is probably stuck holding michael vick's jockstrap for now. /agree.

sure, if you are only talking about QB's in the turnover machine!

Starr and Rodgers are the oddities.

Dickey had only 4 seasons in GB where he threw more TD's than INT's and one of them was 5-4 in a 5 game season!

if we are talking best of all time then favre definitely doesn't belong on the list and neither does rodgers....give rodgers a few more years an i'm sure he will go down as one of the best ever


my list would be

3) Marino
4) Manning
5) Brady
6) Staubach
7) Young
8) Unitas
9) Graham
10) Jim Kelly/Brees





That's a pretty good list. I would put Tarkenton at number 8, 9 or 10 though.


Rodgers will get there eventually.

hell...it was the best time in sports all around....basketball and hockey and baseball

I got to laugh too.

Brett farve is higher then number 10 certainly higher then Majikowski. If Brady wins the super bowl next week that should make him number 1 all time. Joe Montana should be 2 elway 3 and then manning 4. Steve young as good as he was doesnt belong on a top ten qb of all time and if he did it wouldnt be ahead of Joe Montana,roger staubach or Brett Favre.

Also I dont think you can compare a qb from 1950 to a qb playing in 2010 so people like brett star should be on another list. Sure bart star was the best qb of his era but would he even be a back up in today's NFL ?

Regardless of which stats you pick to compare, it's pointless to disregard the NFL rule changes when comparing "historic" to "modern" QB's (and players in general). Taking the rules into account, you'd have to increase the #'s on past QB's who weren't coddled/wrapped in a protective bubble by the league. You also have to factor in that DB's hands' (shoulders, heads,etc) weren't tied when it came to brutal hits on the receivers. Add tuck rules and other such nonsense and the picture keeps getting muddier.

How you figure that? Montana won four, and was perfect in the big game. Brady has choked in the Super Bowl, tying Montana's wins does not surpass him. That is like saying Bill Russell should be ranked as greater than Michael Jordan.

Brady can never be better than Montana even if he manages to win 5. He choked.

If Montana and Marino were playing with today's rules the records they had set would be completely untouchable.

i've heard him several times talking about NY teams (both football and baseball) when they are not involved in the games.

i've heard him several times talking about NY teams (both football and baseball) when they are not involved in the games.
does this a lot during red sox games...talks more Yankees than Sox and opponent.


I've never really noticed buck voice any opinion about any team. I've seen him cover the giants a bunch of times and he definitely is sucking anything off there. But maybe I don't notice with how Anti-Giant Troy Aikman is.
