NFL QB's Past and Present

[FormerCawoodTrojan]

List your top 5 Current NFL QB's as well as your top 5 All-Time NFL QB's.

 

I'll start and be the first one to get blasted.... :idunno:

 

Current:

Brady -- Peyton -- Ben -- Warner -- Brees

 

All Time:

Montana -- Elway -- Brady -- Marino -- Peyton

 

Of course i'm only going to comment on players that i've watched. No Unitas, Namath, etc...

[JPP]

This is difficult because we all have to try to weigh in the importance of winning the big games and performance in them.

 

Your weighting system must be very close to mine, because I like your choices. I would love to try to work Unitas in there somewhere however, and would probably put him in Peyton's spot.

All Time:

 

1. Montana

2. Marino

3. Elway

4. Aikman

All Time:

 

1. Montana

2. Marino

3. Elway

4. Aikman

5. Young

 

Now:

 

1. Brady

2. P. Manning

3. Warner

I think Roethlisberger goes in ahead of Brees/Eli, for now.

I think Roethlisberger goes in ahead of Brees/Eli, for now.

 

I don't know what it is, but there's just something about his game that I dislike.

It's the 2 rings.

[5wide]

Brady, Manning, Roethlisberger, Brees, Rivers

 

I'd have Carson Palmer on the list if he could stay healthy. I'll see how he does in '09.

 

Brady, Montana, Elway, Manning, Marino

[5wide]

He's inconsistent. He can go from looking great to looking bad...but, his ability to make plays and raise his level of play late in games overrides any bad performances, IMO.

 

And, the two rings.

[spindoc]

Now:

Brady

Manning

Roethlisberger

Brees

Warner

 

All Time:

Montana

Marino

Elway

Bradshaw

Young

Eli does the same thing. I remember more than a few games where Eli has played fairly bad, but pulled it together in the 4th quarter to lead the Giants to victory.

Now - Manning

Brady

Warner

Brees

McNabb

 

All Time - Elway

Farve

Marino

Manning

Brady

The all-time list is a challenge. The old guys had receivers who were allowed to be mauled while the guys have receivers who can't be touched.

It is very tough. There were so many that I wanted to name. And you are right about the rules being changed...so different back then.

[hoopboy]

Now: Brady, Peyton, Brees, Big Ben, Eli

 

All Time: Favre, Elway, Montana, Marino, and Jeff Hostetler.....just kidding, Brady.

[malachicrunch]

You guys don't go very Old school. Here are a couple of names from the past.

Dan Fouts

Johnny Unitas

Fran Tarkenton

Terry Bradshaw

Brett Favre ( he's as old as these guys, right?):lol:
