Must see show. Marino, Elway and Namath on. Montana could not make it. Great insight into these 3 HOF QBS. I never knew Marino looked up to namath so much.
Don't be a dick. Joe is a recovering Alcoholic. Did I mention Marino's love for blow? Grow the **** up.
It was a joke. Relax man. You are wound too tight. Come on Suzie.. I mean GreenMachine... give me a kiss
Yep ,lets take rumors as facts, like the fact that Namath has a drinking problem. Or the fact that Joe aint got **** on Dan.
Yep; I remember Marino in an interview back in the day saying he patterned his release after Namath's.
Except a ring and the fact Marino and Elawy said he had the best release of all time. Sure you win. I have said many times Marino is a top 3 QB of all time, why the hate?
You know that was staged right? No hate, just a bit of ball busting and still venting from monday night
yea i knew it was staged but i don't think buck expected to have artie to dominate the show like that...buck looked pretty uncomfortable during the whole segment imo
Actually I thought it was hilarious when Joe hit on Suzy. I thought it just made him all the more human and likeable. Like, hey, thats joe. Ive heard Marino is a jerk in person(Ive never met him) and he seems like that personality type. Nonetheless, hes still my favorite player of all time, even if he probably is a jerk. And Namath, thats his personality, he was lounging down here having a great time the day before the Super Bowl and sonofabitch won. I actually like the guy. He seems like the kinda guy you wished was on your football team even though you hate Jets. Heck, I even think Jim Kelly was a pretty damn QB for the Bills, and if I must say so, was just about as unlucky as Marino. You just gotta separate the uniform from the man, is all and recognize what they all brought to the game.
this is the way i see history "joe montana was the product of a system, dan marino is a system" - Bill Walsh
Take a GOOD look at Namath's statistics and then tell me if you still agree with your statement. He played 13 seasons. Win loss record? 62-63-4 Did he ever lead the league in passer rating? Nope. His best year was a 74.3 in 1969. His career passer rating was 65.5 (I did a double take when I saw that). How many times did he lead the league in touchdown passes? Once in 1972. He did lead the league in interceptions 4 times though. Lifetime touchdown to interception ratio? 173:220. Career completion percentage? 50.1. He hit less than 50% of his passes in a season 7 times in 13 years. He lead his teams to a grand total of 3 playoff games. 3. Now, some of these numbers are low in comparison to todays statistics. It was routine for QB's to have completion percentages around 52-53% in that era, it was a downfield passing era. That said, calling Namath a "pretty damn good QB" and calling Joe Montana overrated? Well, the numbers speak for themselves.
On some bad teams with bad coaches. namath is on of the best pure passers in NFL history. PLUS, he played 60% of his games hurt. By your standards, Brady is greater than Marino. And Pennington is greater than Namath
You talk the best QBs ever you definately say Dan Marino and Joe Montana. John Elway is not too far behind them, but Joe Namath? LOL...he's not even considered in the top 50 all-time is he?
i sure was guess unified didnt catch on to my jets fan impersonation i still think namath is a top 50 QB though 1. unitas 2. elway 3. marino 4. montana 5. farve 6. staubach 7. p. manning 8. young 9. otto graham 10. sammy baugh
Saw the show the other night. Must've been a replay. Was good to see Danny in the kind of setting. He was his usual humble and modest self, even when Buck heaped all kinds of praise on him. Namath was entertaining. Still a cool dude. And, old horse mouth? Well...he's still a jerk IMO. Too bad Montana couldn't be there. That would've been way cool!
Elway better than Marino? Check the stats... Not.Even.Close. Elway might be one of the most overrated QB in NFL history. I had a post about it somewhere...
