Marino's arm was unreal. His release was amazing.

[@johansaravia8580]

He was incredible !!

[@DangerHiVoltage]

Still the best arm I've ever seen

[@LatestTrendShorts]

Dude had the most accurate throws

[@dangainey1528]

That is what scouts are referring to when they talk about “arm talent”.

[@kenyonwilson6195]

Didnt have any rings holding his arm down

[@BigBass-xf5yi]

As a diehard Marino fan(and later on, a Manning fan), this one of those games that I’ll never forget. Marino was probably around 38 years old here and this might have been Manning’s second year in the NFL. . I would eat,sleep and breathe Marino my whole young life, but seeing a very young Peyton Manning shred this incredible Miami defense was highly impressive. This was an extremely strong division at the time as well.

[@jasonknight3115]

I miss the Dolphins Marino era.

[@johansaravia8580]

At least we were able to live through and witness that great era with marino . going to the games at Joe robbie Stadium was an experience every time. but the fins have a bright future ahead, and new great era ahead , I hope .

[@greghanson869]

[@BigBass-xf5yi]

Agreed. It seemed like Marino had a middle launcher mounted to his shoulder.

[@BSmokeyGaming]

This is by far the best one NFL throwback put on because I’m a huge Dan Marino fan and a Dolphin fan. Despite Marino never winning the big games, he was by far the greatest QB to play the game back then. And sadly, that 99 year was his last due to neck issues, imagine if he stayed till at least two more years with the Dolphins (or he could’ve went to Minnesota via Free Agengy) the Dolphins would of at least made it to the AFC title game, especially with that defense they had in the early 2000s.

@@taydafranklin7800 would you take Steve Young, the Dolphins team and coach/management over Marino, the San Fran Team and S.F coaching/management. I could be wrong but I believe a Dan Marino with a stellar team surrounding him and those 2 chumps Jerry Rice and Terrell Owens catching passes thrown by Marino might have been capable of winning a tad more than Young could have with the Dolphins roster. Remember Steve Young stint with Tampa to start his career? Yeah, I'm pretty sure if Young remained there he would have been an after thought shortly after. It's amazing how football is such an all around team sport but people criticize or severely downgrade a players ability to win games without taking into account every factor surrounding them. Anything could happen had Marino been blessed to play in San Fran but I would be willing to put my money on him having won plenty of Super Bowls there. I have this feeling that Walsh could have found a way to win with a lesser QB like Marino ;)

[@ag358]

@@Orion2269 it's amazing how people, most anyway judge a qb by their rings. And your right, Marino in san fran would have resulted in a lot of rings. Buffalo would be 4 rings and Marino in present day new England would have as many as brady or probably more.

[@STP43FAN1]

Wrong. He was always in over his head in big games. Defense doesn’t win anything. Run games are wasted downs. It’s Situational Passing and Situational Execution. Marino never executed to the situation. His one Superbowl, needing to score 24 more points (something someone like Brady would do) he instead threw two picks, failed on fourth down, and fumbled the ball
