5 WORST Starting Quarterbacks To Win A Super Bowl...And The 5 BEST That Never Did

[@NGGTacos]

Joe Flacco is getting too much hate, he may not have been the best QB of his era or anything but he lead his team to playoffs for 6 years and lead them to an incredible Super Bowl run. he also posted better stats than many HOF within the playoffs . Someone that should be here instead of Flacco is Nick foles. He could not maintain a starting QB job.

[@quinburner3362]

Perfectly said

[@carloscolon3331]

Yeah

[@memesawesom]

Foles wasn't really supposed to be a starter. However, I do somewhat agree, because he is the only qb to throw 4 td's against Brady(in a loss, too 31-28 i believe)

[@laserxman779sports]

Plus during the postseason Flacco threw 0 picks that’s hard to do

Did they really say that? I remember Randy Moss giving Randall Cunningham a hard time for trying to make too many plays with his legs, saying, "you're not Fran Tarkington". I'm fairly sure Moss was born after Tarkenton retired. That's like referring to Dan Marino as "the ultimate run-pass threat".

[@EricPS]

If there would be a 6th spot for "Best that never won", I would give it to another Chargers QB. That would be Philip Rivers. He had a pretty good passing career as well. Also, kudos to these guys for getting Warren Moon on the "Best to never win" list. This guy put up some amazing stats for only being in the NFL later in his career (he started in the CFL). Super strong arm and a nice tight spiral. Yeah, he played for a team that used the run and shoot offense for a lot of his NFL career (this has a tendency to inflate stats), but, who cares, credit is due for a great player who never made it to the SB.

I remember the media comparing Joe Flacco and Matt Ryan, two quarterbacks that were drafted in the first round of 2008. The perspective of Joe Flacco is different then than it is now. Let’s be honest, the majority of negative thoughts towards Joe Flacco occurred after the failure in Denver. Joe Flacco‘s regular season record was 54-26 leading up to Super Bowl 47, and that SB victory was his 9th postseason win. Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes took six years to win nine playoff games. Joe Flacco did it in five. After signing a huge blockbuster deal, Joe Flacco would have one more postseason appearance in 2015 when the Ravens beat the Steelers, but lost to the Patriots in the divisional round. It was all downhill from there, and for some reason, what Joe Flacco has done following his Super Bowl win has encapsulated his entire career.

[@shawnbopko858]

The media does that kind of like Vince young and kurt Warner wich who sucked for being a shopper then he won one

[@darrencole97]

Worst to win Flacko best never to win Dan Marino.

[@dawdeuce250]

Uh please check where you get your stats in Tom Bradys first six years he had 10 post season wins and three SB rings. While Patrick Mahomes has had 10 wins and 2 SB rings. So 9 post season wins in 6 years is not hard to do when your good and they both have more rings than Flacco. Put Flacco on a team with a not top5 defense and his records would be pedestrian at best.

[@grammysworld5449]

Ryan was looked at as better because he was on the terrible Falcons and not a semi loaded Ravens team.. Flacco had better team success but other than the period of his amazing postseason run, Ryan has always been seen as the better QB.. His team and front office and ownership just sucked where Flacco had Ozzie.. Joe should have won more honestly seeing Baltimore barely missed a step after his fall due to their consistency of the last decade at the time

[@youraveragejoessportsnetwo553]

@@dawdeuce250 In five years, Joe Flacco had as many AFC championship appearances as Tom Brady in six (3). If you wanted to judge Joe Flacco based on his defense, then you should judge Tom Brady by the same standard. The Patriots defense in Tom Brady’s first six years is far superior than the Ravens defense during Joe Flacco‘s tenure. The Patriots went 14-2 back to back years (2003, 2004) thanks to that defense. Many can argue Tom Brady would have never won his first three Super Bowls if it wasn’t for the Patriots defense.

[@CC-rb1yf]

Flacco's throw to Jacoby is one of the best throws of all time based on when the throw happened (down 7 in final minutes on other side of field). And he was torching a strong 49ers D until lights went out. Winning on the road against the likes of Brady, Manning and Ben makes him underrated

Honorable mention that never won: Ken Anderson He was the first NFL QB to successfully run a pass-heavy offense under Bill Walsh (who would go on to lead the 49ers to 4 SB titles in the 80's), led the league in passer rating 4x, led the league in yards 2x, led the league in Completions 3x, was a 4x Pro Bowler, all-pro selection twice, and league MVP in 1981. He got the Bengals to Super Bowl 16 (his only appearance) but fell just short to Joe Montana. Had he won that game (or not been hurt so often) I have no doubt he would be considered a legend.

[@bryanjones4444]

That is an excellent catch. Kenny is the best quarterback not in the Hall of Fame. I have a formula that measures how much better a quarterback was than the average quarterback during his career. I then take those numbers and compare all the great quarterbacks. Ken comes out as a middle of the pack Hall of Famer scoring better than 14 quarterbacks that have been inducted.

Mahommes lost Hill to Miami, yet has his team in the Super Bowl and another MVP award under his belt. Bears are in a position to rack up draft picks from a qb-hungry team if they stay with Fields and build around him.

@@latarribell4152 The league isn't becoming more "quarterback dependent." There's never been more RB, WR, and TE coming out of college. Players who become day 3 picks or go undrafted would be day two or even day one picks twenty years ago. The league is more quarterback-friendly. There's a difference. Just like how the ground game was more important prior to the WR contact changes in 1980 that make the league more WR-friendly. Teams can still find success through the old avenues. There's just new avenues that exist that, frankly, are easier to pursue because it requires less-talented teams.

As a lifelong Dolphins fan, Marino's lack of a Super Bowl ring is easy to understand: the Dolphins never had a balanced offense so defenses could focus on stopping the pass and reduce the chances for the Dolphins to win. That Marino was such a success as a QB in spite of everyone knowing he'll have to throw for them to win shows just how good he was. The Dolphins spent at least two first round picks on RBs in his career, Lorenzo Hampton and Sammie Smith, and the fact that you thought "Who?" tells you all you need to know about them. Only Karim Abdul-Jabbar (not making that up, it was his name) rushed for barely over 1,000 yards, but with less than 4 yards a carry. Terry Kirby was my favorite of the Dolphins RBs of Marino's career, but he excelled as a pass catcher out of the backfield more than a runner. A good rushing RB might have changed the story, but Marino's still had an amazingly successful career, in spite of everyone knowing it was The Mad Bomber who was the offensive focus in Miami. Interesting (to me) side note. Marino is the second of only two players who wore the number 13 in their career for the Dolphins. The first, Safety Jake Scott, got the accolade that I always wanted for Dan. Scott was the Super Bowl MVP of Super Bowl VII.

That often breeds excitement in the moment,but definitely doesn't do much for career longevity and the "what might have been, what could have been" if only he would have had a little more respect for his body will always be a great "what if" for old school Bears fans... Oh well, those were great days to be a Bears fan, and to watch that crazy bastard play...lol. Now, sadly, Jim is paying off those checks that his body and style of play wrote for him so long ago, but it definitely wasn't boring when he was lined up under Center because with him-nothing was off the table and anything might, and probably would, happen... But, that just my simple half-assed observation and opinion from over 30 long years ago.....

[@kurtpunchesthings2411]

yea that 85 bears were so stacked you could literally have put any QB in history and they would have won that Superbowl

[@melanietatco30]

Another one is Mark Rypien. He was good, but not great… still has a SB ring

[@youknowwhatdaysayinhoe5646]

Don't kid yourself! He earned that ring with no one carrying him! Easily top 5 greatest Washington QBs

[@aashay8330]

Nick foles ;-;

[@mr.wallraven977]

What other Super Bowl did Brad Johnson win besides 02 with Tampa? Didn’t they say two super bowls in the video?

[@basedshrek9014]

Surprised not to see Philip Rivers on here for “Best QBs to Never Win a Super Bowl”

[@justinmathewson3692]

Pretty disrespectful to put Flacco on this list. Pro Bowls and stats aren't everything. The man won a lot of big games and had the best postseason stat line ever in Jan 2013

[@Nick_Nitro511]

Such a shame for Jim Kelly, the closest he ever came to win was against a backup QB

[@mikemiken1963]

"against a backup QB" He was playing across the ball from LT, but act like he had an easy time.

[@Nick_Nitro511]

@@mikemiken1963 it wasn't a dig at the Giants I am a giants fan, they had LT, Carson and Banks, it's just funny how he couldn't catch a break

[@eliarbaiza]

Nick Foles should be on the list of 5 worst since he never did anything outside of Philly

[@carlosguvetis9347]

The worst to ever win a Super Bowl was Joe Namath. He threw more interceptions than Touchdowns for his career. he had about 3 good seasons out of his entire career.

[@davidruiz63]

Tony Romo should be on the list of best QBs to never win. He holds numerous team and league records, multiple Pro Bowl nods, and always had the Cowboys contending for the division title or the playoffs. But he also had historically bad defenses that he had to constantly overcome. He led Dallas to over 30-35 points so many times yet Dallas lost those games because the defense gave up more and the blame fell to Romo. In fact, in 2012, Dallas had the worst defense in NFL history, yet Romo still had them contending for the division title at the end of the year. Plus in 2014, the league screwed Dallas against GB when they admitted that Dez Bryant had caught that ball and the refs got it wrong. Dallas, no doubt, would've beaten Seattle in the NFC championship game since they beat them earlier that year in Seattle and gone on to SB 49. I could list so many examples, but Romo never gets his due credit.

[@Zappy1210]

Fran was FAR from a pocket passer. He is the OG scrambler my dude.

[@joelwright4317]

At the time Flacco won his ring, he was most certainly considered a very good QB. At that point he was 54-26 in the regular season and 9-4 post-season. It’s everything after that which has tarnished his resume.

[@ther_6255]

Brad Johnson only won because he had three HOF’s on his defense. Aaron Donald, Von Miller, and Jalen Ramsey.

[@jroberson8912]

Phillip Rivers should have made the list as one of the best to never win a championship.

[@kahnkretefpv7594]

I would take McMahon off the list and replace him with Mark Rypien. Other than that, your list is on point. Drew Bledsoe deserves an honorable mention, but I can't pull someone off your list to replace him.

[@michaelbelshaysr4525]

Surprised Doug Williams didn't make the list. Though he did win the Super Bowl. And considering he had a fairly great career. Though he played his first 5 years as a Buccaneer he made the playoff 3 times the only other time he played in the NFL was with the Redskins. Where he come in during the playoffs and won the Super bowl. He did play 1 more season with the Redskins going 4-6. So 6 whole seasons led his team to 3 playoff births and won the Super bowl. But his stats run weak after that partially with Tampa which wasn't known at the time to be an offensive team but great defensive team. He did have to run for his life there. And relievers used to çlaim to not like receiving passes from him because it felt like being shot by a shotgun.he has a career r9% completion rate 100 tds 93 ints.

[@berniej.rucker4252]

I always felt sorry that Ken Anderson was overshadowed by Bradshaw and never got the recognition he deserved. Likewise with Barry, but Barry was a RB with a lousy ran franchise.

[@ciattatoredelanoche3799]

Flacco reached playoffs in his First 6 seasons. With steelers as divisionale contender.

[@googlesucks2449]

Worst to Win: Blaine Gabbert. (Brady's back-up in Tampa.)

[@LaserRanger15]

I think Marino was the best thrower of the ball ever.

[@728huey]

My five least heralded quarterbacks to win a Super Bowl: 1. Trent Dilfer 2. Nick Foles 3. Mark Rypien 4. Brad Johnson 5. Jeff Hostetler

[@kurtpunchesthings2411]

if this is starting Qbs then oh boy that's some damn list i haven't even heard of 1 and 5 and didn't know 4 won a Ring

[@bostonk.o.]

Honestly, Joe Flacco’s 2012 playoff run might be the best I’ve ever seen from a QB. Should’ve probably put Joe Namath over Joe Flacco.

[@n.hoppy2]

Nick Foles was not a good quarterback, yet played just good enough to win a very talented eagles team a Super Bowl

[@deepcosmiclove]

Foles is a great long passer. Anybody who can throw long can play in the NFL.

[@OHIOSTATE1FAN]

@@deepcosmiclove he’s just a one hit wonder, after that super bowl it went downhill.

Flacco was a damn good QB. Not many threw a better deep ball

[@brad-corfman]

As a fan of a team that had to play him twice a year, you are not wrong! Deep ball, play action, he was brilliant. And I hated every minute! 😀

[@barbaralovenvirth8726]

This is why QBs should not be rated by SB appearences. Teams win SBs, not individuals.

[@derher3273]

Can u do mock draft 3.0

[@metalhead6409]

I’d put Steve McNair and Matt Ryan in the best to never win category

[@samwheel5162]

Marino is the best that never won hands down. Possibly the greatest qb talent we've ever seen he was putting up all time great stats by modern day standards in 1984

[@kaurincrni7185]

Throwing 5000+ yards in the 80s might be one of the best accomplishments in football history

Surprised Nick Foles isn’t on the worst list.

[@jeffreyhutchins6527]

There is a reason why the old saying "Defense and Running games, win championships"

Matt Ryan will be on this list in the future ---- that is as one of the 5 BEST that never did.

[@kurtpunchesthings2411]

100% 7th all time passing yards if he played 1 more season he would have made it to 5th

[@1xsnrg]

I agree with the five best who never won. I’d put Kelly at the top although it’s too bad none of those guys ever won the big one.

[@petescarport]

As a lifelong bucs fan I immediately called out Trent dilfer and Brad Johnson. Both so bad but solid for the amazing d we had and for Trent he got lucky to be on an amazing Baltimore team

[@simonhanauer7020]

Bernie Kosar? Damn good and never got to sb.

[@jessicasherwood4943]

Yes he did, he got his ring as a back up QB for Aikman S.B. 27 I believe.

[@Cbear3450]

Both Doug Williams and Mark Rypien had their careers go down the toilet following their respective Super Bowl victories.

[@kennethalger1268]

You need to replace Jeff Hosteler with Mark Rypien.

[@superuner73]

One of the main reasons Marino never won a Super Bowl is because he and the dolphins could not get past Jim Kelly and the Buffalo Bills.

[@kradios09]

I could've won a superbowl with Dilfer's raven squad

[@vincentwolfe9460]

I'd have to disagree with your worst picks list on Flacco and McMahon. Statistically, Joe Flacco has posted better numbers than Troy Aikman over the same period of time. It could be argued that what Flacco lacked in his career was a hall of fame running back and receiver to make a consistent deep playoff run/super bowl run. McMahon's problem was that he was always hurt. If you look at the Bears from 84-86 they're a contender who could have won another bowl game but in both 84 and 86 McMahon was out with season ending injuries (a lacerated kidney in 84 and a separated shoulder in 86). Better choices for worst starting QBs would be Doug Williams who was streaky and for his career completed less than half of his passes and was Jay Shroeder's backup for most of the year, a similar scenario to Hostetler. The other is Plunkett who benefit was able to get two super bowl wins with a hall of fame running back (Marcus Allen) Pro Bowl Tight End (Todd Christensen) and a defense that was loaded with pro bowl and hall of fame players.

[@greggorsag9787]

What do they call all the guys on this “Worst to Win” list? “Super Bowl Champion Quarterback”
