work of art

[@iamtman1]

No quarterback in history could throw the ball like Dan Marino. The best passer that ever lived.

[@manuel1654088]

iamtman1 I agree partially but as a Miami born fins fan I most say Drew Brees might be more accurate as his receivers barely ever had to look over their shoulders as they knew the ball was gonna land into their hands over the top while running at full speed.

[@iamtman1]

Drew Brees plays in a dome, with today's joke rules were any QB can look good. Marino much better than Brees. And I like Brees too.

[@iamtman1]

I am aware Rodgers is alive, and I think he's great. Marino still the better passer. Remember the rules Marino played under compared to today were anyone can pass for big numbers.

I was at this game ( the only away game i attended) with over a decade of season ticket holder years at Miami. Mark Ingram's career day at Meadowlands. 4 TD catches from Marino including the remarkable spike play!!

[@christinagarner8856]

Don Shula said his biggest regret was not putting more talent around Marino, Stephenson was only H.O.F. Marino ever played with but won a lot of games

[@TheAutumnWind_RN4L]

It's a crime that Elway has 2 rings and Marino has none. Don't get me wrong, I'm not hating on Elway because we share a division. I just think that Marino was arguably the best QB the league ever saw, and he never won a championship.

[@Ghostmotorfinger]

@@TheAutumnWind_RN4L I couldn't agree more with your assessment. People seem to forget Terrell Davis carried that Broncos offense. Elway had great targets like Rod Smith. Who did Marino have?. Oronde Gadsden? Shula and Jimmy Johnson... Hell the entire Dolphins front office failed Marino in my opinion. You get Marino a decent O-Line and a running game where he wasn't slinging it 40 times a game. With some outside help. Just a shame. I consider Marino to be the best Quarterback I have ever seen play.

[@TheAutumnWind_RN4L]

@@Ghostmotorfinger Marino is the greatest quarterback I've ever seen play, as well, in an era where athleticism was near what it is today, but the pure savagery of tackle football was far greater than what it is right now. These quarterbacks couldn't tie Roger Staubach's shoes, let alone Dan Marino's, and they're putting up these ridiculous numbers, passing his records in situations that they didn't have to play in. Davis secured his HoF induction simply because he got Elway those two rings, with outstanding performances in Superbowls 32 and 33. You are spot on in everything you just said, GMF, and it's a shame that revisionist history leaves this man out of the conversation of the greatest player of all time, or at least the greatest QB.

[@Ghostmotorfinger]

@@TheAutumnWind_RN4L I appreciate that. You are absolutely correct about today's version of the game of football. Now we all realize that things always progress and circumstances change. Look at football from the 1950's compared to the glorious 1970's, light years difference. But you hit the nail on the head about revisionist history in talking about Dan Marino in the conversation as the greatest quarterback of all time. His skill set has yet to be seen in anyone again nor do I think we will in our lifetime.

[@TheAutumnWind_RN4L]

@@Ghostmotorfinger Indeed, and that is very unfortunate. You're a true scholar of the game. It's been an honor.

[@Heat3YT2]

I remember watching this game and thinking he should just fake the spike because of how he was moving the ball on that drive. Then he actually did it! It was so awesome. To see it here in real time really gives it justice how the Jets were caught off guard. Almost every other highlight of this is in slow motion. Even to this day I have only seen it attempted a few times since then.

Thia was probably one of the most devistating losses in Jets history. They would not win another game that season and it led to Pete Carroll being fired. Then they hired Rich Kotite and he would only win four out of 28 games the next two seasons.

Wish we saw more Pro Sets run today. If there's a two man backfield today it's always I or offset-I. Pro set kind of faded out around 2005-2006 while those other two back sets stayed for some reason. Useful formation to pass and a lot of variance (can offset the back to one side, can move them closer to the line or further). We also don't see offset singleback sets anymore either.

[@scienceownsimposters2142]

As of the early 2000's before this painful last 20 years hit, the Miami Dolphins were the most successful team(winning percentage) of any professional team in the world. Bring back the original logo & the uniforms of the late 90's or early 2000's.
