1) Aaron Rodgers
2) Bart Starr
3) Don Majikowski
4) John Elway
5) Tom Brady
6) Steve Young
7) Joe Montana
8) Lynn Dickie
9) Roger Staubach
10) Brett Favre

Certainly ahead of anybody in bold.

And an argument could easily be made to put him ahead of the the rest of them.

Manning is out? Source?


Your whack list is about as accurate as the pack in the playoffs this year.

No one has said he is out, just seems like all the talking heads are saying the writing is on the wall.

We won't know anything for two months.

The only thing that we know right now, is that the decision is going to be made by Jim Irsay.

He beats everyone on that list except for Montana and crushes Montana if you take Super Bowls out of the discussion.

You're putting Brady ahead of Young? That's rich.

Oh, wait, you're one of those "championships are what makes a good player" sorts, aren't you?

Of all team sports, championships in football probably mean the least when talking about greatest ever. Manning's team went from Super Bowl contenders EVERY YEAR to winning the draft lottery. That right there should hold more weight than any championship.
