Tough to argue the number, but I don't know that I can ever say Elway or Montana were better QBs than Marino. I definitely can't say Favre was better.

Marino> Favre and Elway.

Favre and Elway are not better than Marino, and Bart Starr should be ahead of all three.
Still, it's one guy's opinion. He's entitled to it.ether79 likes this. -
As much as I hate to admit, Brady is also in the discussion.

I disagree with Clayton for one major reason he uses SB victories as a measuring stick on everyone but Danny and Graham. Either they are or they are not. As a pure pocket passer imvho Dan Marino has no equal! As a complete field general with all the stats but one locked up Peyton Manning will be the last man standing! There are two others who, it should be noted, we should not ever forget, Johnny U and Bart Starr.
While there are others who were great passers or field generals, some on the list and some not I must take issue with both Terry Bradshaw and John Elway on the list but they are there because of their team's SB wins which is a disservice to everyone else he named!
I mean good lord Don Strock was a better passer than either Elway or Bradshaw imho.
