Baugh? Obviously he's not taking eras into consideration, which is ridiculous.
My top 5:
1 - Elway
2 - Marino
3 - Favre
4 - Manning
5 - Montana |
Favre ahead of Montana? Really???? Not to mention Manning??? |
I go with who's done more with less. Favre had Sterling for a short time, and he's never really had any great receivers. Manning's had Marv and now Reg, and Montana had the GOATWR. |
YEa, he's thrown MORE inception then anybody that has played the game   |
 Dude's a gunslinger...but that's also because he's played the most. |
Same can be said about the number of TDs he's toss... he has the record simply because he played the longest.... |
And that - longevity - in itself is a feat, ESPECIALLY at such a violent sport and ESPECIALLY at being a sitting duck due to the position he plays. |
All QB's are sitting ducks... he gets no points for that... but you can deduct points for abusing pain killers for two season (his own admission), which allowed him to make all his starts.
As for his receivers, Sterling Sharpe, Antonio Freeman, Donald Driver, and Robert Brooks were All Pro/ProBowl WRs when they played with Favre, so the WRs argue doesn't hold.... |
No, you missed my point...I'm not giving him points for being a sitting duck...I'm giving him points for HOLDING UP this long WHILE being a sitting duck. And dude, what does his offseason troubles have to do with ranking him as a QB  ?
Freeman ain't makin' the Hall. Driver PROBABLY won't. Brooks won't. Montana had Rice = HOF. Manning had Marv = HOF. Elway had Shannon = HOF. Marino had the Mark Brothers but none of those cats will sniff the Hall either. So my argument holds up that he didn't have a HOF WR to throw to.
Wait...before I go on...Is it that you just don't like Favre for whatever reason(s)? I asked that because you mentioned the pain killers, and I can't see how that holds any bearing on the dude as a QB. |
Did you forget that Sterling Sharpe guy Lux? |
Naw, I named him when I first responded to Tach. |
But you forget him when discussing HOF caliber WR's that a QB had? He was pretty dang good. |
Actually LB changed it up a little bit...
it went from great receiver to HOF WR:
| Quote: | | he's never really had any great receivers. |
Although they are not 'great' WRs, Sterling Sharpe, Antonio Freeman, Donald Driver, and Robert Brooks were All Pro/ProBowl WRs.., they were definitely better than average. He also had a nice running game in Levens, Bennett and Green. |
Nope. I didn't change a damn thing. YOU made that up. I call a great WR a HALL OF FAME WR. You came to that conclusion on your own...not my fault.

^^ as soon as I listed a bunch of All Pro/Pro Bowl Receivers, you switch to HOFer....
Also, nobody is getting heated, its just a message board discussion.
Either way, Favre is overrated... he doesn't belong in the Top 5 Qs All Time... and to have him above Elway (who I hate with a passion, way more than Favre), Montana, and Manning is ludicrous... (I can't speak for the QBs I didn't see play like Unitas, Baugh, Graham, or Blanda) |

Dude, YOU switched it. NOT me. YOU made it out to how YOU wanted to make "Great" to mean. NOT ME. I never said great meant "Pro Bowl"...YOU came up with that assessment. Again, THAT'S on YOU.
To ME, "Great" can ONLY be "HOF". And fine...Favre is overrated. (Good lawd! Did Favre diss you on an autograph request, bruh? )

I think Sharpe was a great receiver. Led the league in catches and TD's multiple years, perennial pro-bowler.

So he was pretty, well, great then, wasn't he? Come on Lux, you can admit it! I know we've already been agreeable once, but one more won't kill you

It's really going to look silly if I argue with you for 2 pages about not wanting to look back two pages, so help a brotha out...

Peyton wins his 4th...solidifying a top 5 all time qb.

I don't know if there's any way to get a top 5 list that everyone agrees with, but it should be hard to find anyone rational that doesn't think Manning is firmly in the conversation

Ken "The Snake" Stabler. Like his Alabama Red Tide teammate, Namath, he knows how to score on the field and off the field.

I gotta give my boy Steve Young a plug here. His QB rating is off the charts. He could run and pass. His teams were always good, even in his late age. In fact, some of his best seasons were towards the end of his career. He won a super bowl and was dominant in it.

After this season Peyton has to be in the GOAT conversation, at the very least top 5.
There's so many guys that you could argue being in the top 5 though, definitely tough to make a top 5. |

| Tom Brady should be top 3. Especially ahead of Manning who chokes too much although Brady has been choking the last few seasons. |
