1. Joe Montana - Montana may be the greatest NFL playoff player in History. In his four wins, Montana three 11 touchdowns and was never once picked off. His 273 career touchdowns, 40,551 career passing yards and QB rating of 92.3 all rank among the top ten of all time. Montana was a 8 time Pro-Bowler, 3 Time First Team All-Pro and 3 Time Second Team All-Pro. Montana won four Superbowls, winning the MVP three times. He also picked up two AP NFL MVPs.
2. Johnny Unitas - still talked about today like he still plays. The first true great modern day QB. Even though he played 14 game schedules, many of his career stats still rank among the all time greats. Johnny U was a 10 time Pro-Bowler, 9 Time All-Pro, Three Time Pro-Bowl MVP,and a 3 Time AP NFL MVP.
3. Brett Favre - The more he plays, the more I respect his talent. At age 67(a joke) he plays like most QBs in their prime. A 3 Time NFL MVP, Favre has also made 9 Pro-Bowls and 7 All-Pro teams. He also won Superbowl XXXI. He holds the NFL record for career tds and yards with 457 and 63,467 (still playing so these stats will change week by week).
4. John Elway - maybe the greatest fourth quarter and comeback from behind QB in NFL History. A 9 time Pro-Bowler and 5 Time All-Pro, his 300 career tds and 51,475 yards rank among the top 5 of all time. Elway made 5 Superbowls, a record, winning two.
5. Dan Marino - Best QB to never win a Superbowl. Marino is one of the NFL's best pure passers of all time. Marino who made 9 Pro-Bowls and 8 All-Pro teams, also won the 1984 MVP. His 420 career tds and 61,361 yards are second all time, only behind Favre. He's also third in fourth quarter comeback wins (37) and wins at QB with 147. His QB rating was a very good 86.4.
