[@SchulzEricT]

@@ThatGreenGuy85 I don't know that the Bears can beat the Cardinals run with Kurt Warner, as short as it was. The Bears' history at QB is a *wasteland*. The "good" thing about Watson was that he gave you a franchise QB, then the Texans were able to get out of it and get back a haul of 1sts. And now with CJ Stroud looking like a *stud*, the Watson trade set them up for success. (A really cold-blooded way of looking at it... but holy fuck, Browns, what the fuck?)

We all kinda knew Green Bay would be at the top, but even then they left out a few good/great QBs. Lynn Dickey, while not a Hall of Famer, led some potent offenses in the 80's. And the oft forgotten man in GB history, Cecil Isbell. Isbell helped lead the team to the Championship in 1939 along with Arnie Herber, and took over when Herber left. He was either a first or second team all pro every season of his career (albeit he only played 5 seasons), broke the passing yards record in both 1941 and 1942, and was the first QB to throw for over 2000 yards in a season. He also led the league in touchdowns both years, and also broke the touchdown record in 1942. He was also part of 1930's All-Decade team. He's a criminally underrated player who would most likely be in the Hall of Fame if he hadn't ended his career early to take a coaching job.

For being more defensively-focused than the game today, the 70s had so many greats at QB: Staubach, Bradshaw, Fouts, Anderson, Tarkenton, Stabler, Griese, Hart, Dawson, Manning, and even the twilights of Unitas and Jurgenson. Not to say that some of the earlier QBs tearing up the formative years of the NFL in the 50s and 60s weren't standouts in their time as well, but it feels like the 70s coinciding with the growth of the sport at the pro level and a batch of legendary signal callers really was writing the history books as they went.

[@fortynights1513]

The period of 1969-1977 is in my opinion the dead ball era of the game. In the last year before the merger we see two teams with excellent defenses face one another in Super Bowl 4 (Red Wood Forest Chiefs won it all, and the 69 Vikings defense allowed less than ten points per game themselves). And in the first eight seasons after the merger, we have a period where the old AFL and NFL teams played one another for the first time, and as such there were a lot of talented defenses in the league, and prior to 1978, the Mel Blount rule didn’t exist so secondaries could jam receivers beyond five yards with no pass interference, and pass rushers contended with offensive linemen who could not extend their arms. Don’t get me wrong, the quarterbacks you mentioned as a group were excellent (in particular their game management in some cases), and simultaneously because the defenses were not restricted by too many rules changes, the quarterbacks ended up handing the ball off to maintain possession much more often than their successors in many cases, so their raw passing stats don’t look like much, but they did their jobs.

Get off of Bill belichick's nuts... I bet you didn't even watch the game because you are saying Bill belichick's defensive game plan is why they won... Thurman Thomas was unstoppable accumulating almost 200 yards of total offense rushing for 135 yards and a touchdown on like 17 carries or something like that...

Packers have a ton of great quarterbacks throughout their history. Curly Lambeau is one of the most important football players ever. He invented a large part of football culture, he made the first ever fair catch kick, and even had the first unbeaten season in 1929 (12-0-1). Cecil Isbel was elite in the early days when he played alongside Don Hutson (who for a very long time held the record for receiving TDs). Arnie Herber was also great as mentioned. Bart Starr has some legendary accolades, but it really was overshadowed by the most talented football leader to ever live with Vince Lombardi. Majik was awesome, but he was always crippled by injuries so he never got many accolades. Favre was nicknamed the gunslinger because he could throw a football at interstate speeds and his release was extremely fast. He once broke his receiver’s hand because he threw the ball so hard. And the guy that replaced him, Aaron Rodgers, had even more talent than he did. All of this, and now Jordan Love also looks like a future Hall of Famer.

That means that they literally had a Hall of Famer playing the most important position on the football field for their team for every single year for 30 consecutive years and couldn’t even manage to win 1 Super Bowl per decade. meanwhile, the New England Patriots have won 6 Super Bowl trophies in that time, and even the Denver Broncos have taken home 3 Lumbardy‘s since 92.

George Allen chose Billy over Sonny, which I think is questionable, but he did produce with the Skins, getting to the 1973 Super Bowl. Though I will add that Bobby Layne had some good seasons with Pittsburgh, I think Washington and Pittsburgh should be flipped. Also in terms of order, I think the Giants should be higher. Tommy Thompson was the QB for the Eagles when they were the dominant team in the league, going to the championship game in 1947 before winning it in 1948 and 1949. He led one of the league's top offenses those years and was one of the league's better passers. Joe Kapp wasn't pretty, but he did lead the Vikings to their first Super Bowl appearance. Charley Johnson deserves a mention with the Cardinals, being a part of some of their winning seasons in the 1960s while being one of the league's leading passers. Finally, Andy Herber was technically a tailback and not a quarterback with the Packers. But if it's passers we're comparing, another tailback Cecil Isbell also deserves a mention with the Packers. He was among the top passers in the league and he was a part of the 1939 championship team before WW2 interrupted his NFL career.

Obviously Minnesota should be #1. We had Fran Tarkenton, Brett Favre, Randall Cunningham, Kirk Cousins, Warren Moon, Brad Johnson, Jeff George, Archie Manning, Tommy Kramer, Jim McMahon, Wade Wilson, Joe Kapp, Daunte Culpepper, Donovan McNabb, Sam Bradford, Case Keenum, Teddy Bridgewater. We even had the Passtronaut himself, Joshua Dobbs. No other team can get anywhere close to showing off elite quarterback names on their jerseys. And I'm only partially kidding. We really have had an insane history of QBs. Edit: I even missed former NFL MVP Rich Gannon!

Setting the Panthers at 28 is CRIMINAL! Even with all or our struggles QB wasn’t a worry for more than half of those years, with 2 REALLY good QBs and we’ve only been around since 1996! Not saying we’re top 15, but 28? Come on now…

Top four should be packers, niners, colts, cowboys. Why the rams are in the top five is ridiculous. They should definitely be in the top ten. But not ahead of the Cowboys. Aside from that, pretty good list. Thanks for the work you put into this. Love NFL throwback.

[@diggsfather]

van brocklin and waterfield pull them ahead of the cowboys. if it's just super bowl era, then cowboys would be higher

[@BoldWittyName]

I agree 9ers need to be ahead of Colts. Luck is an asterisk, not a HoF'er

Spot on!

Cleveland Browns at 17 is insane 😭😭😭

[@Chicago.9]

ikr it should be much lower on the list

[@grantl7062]

Otto Graham, the really old teams get the advantage of just having more candidates, the Browns dominated in the pre Super Bowl era

[@nameeman1562]

Not enough people give Otto Graham credit for revolutionizing the passing game the way he did.

Awesome video, well worth the hour

David Woodley got the Dolphins to a Super Bowl as well. He and Don Strock bridged the gap between Greise and Marino.
