All-Time Best Quarterbacks (GRAND FINALE)

[Seabiscuit]

Poll question: All-Time Best Quarterbacks (GRAND FINALE)

These are the top ten vote-getters from the first two polls, in order of the number of votes they received.

Don't blame me if you don't see your favorite quarterback below - DU voted, and these were the top 10, in order of the number of votes.

Now you get to vote again.

[PRETZEL]

1. Have to go with TB

TB called his own plays (despite the knock that he was dumb as a doornail), played hurt (anyone remember Turkey Jones)and led us to 4 SB's.

[immoderate]

2. Yeah TB is the champ!

The numbers don't lie, he racked them up.

14. 4 rings, but I'm not sure he's better than Bart Starr.

But since Starr isn't listed I voted for Terry

[madinmaryland]

3. What about Troy Aikman?

:wtf:

He has three super bowl rings!

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

7. So does Tom Brady.

Is he #1?

[Seabiscuit]

11. He was in the first poll.

He didn't get enough votes to make it here.

See OP: "These are the top ten vote-getters from the first two polls, in order of the number of votes they received."

"Don't blame me if you don't see your favorite quarterback below - DU voted, and these were the top 10, in order of the number of votes."

4. RYAN LEAF!

come on, no love for the Loafin' Leaf?

[Dinger]

5. Brett Favre Of Course!

There has neven been, and will never be another, Brett Favre!

All hail Brett Favre, All hail Brett Favre, . . .
:)


P.S. Going to the draft party tomorrow, where he likely will be.:headbang:

[Room101]

9. Brett Favre is a Super bowl LOSER

What a disgrace. He only won %50 of the Superbowls he played in.

[Dinger]

16. Ummm, No He's Not

You WISH your tam had him . . .

But you don't - HA!

[KitchenWitch]

6. It is Fran Tarkenton, not Fran Tarkington

Just sayin!

:hi:

[Seabiscuit]

8. Oops.

Bad typo!

Bad Bad typo!

:spank:

[Politically_Wrong]

10. Where is Jim Kelly?

4 Superbowls in a row! He had to be doing something right!

[Seabiscuit]

12. He's the only QB to lose 4 superbowls, and he did it in 4 seasons.

That kind of puts him at Ryan Leaf's level.

[JVS]

13. Where is Bart Fucking Starr?!??!?!?!

[Dolomite]

15. Ala-fucking-bama

last I heard.

[Dinger]

17. Oh, Oh. Can't He And Brett Be Tied?

Just asking:shrug:

[Seabiscuit]

18. He was in the first poll. He didn't get enough votes to make it here.

Please read the OP.

[JVS]

19. Well then the voters suck and this entire proceedure is a farce!

The truth is not established by councils and votes!

[Seabiscuit]

20. This isn't a "truth" poll. It's a DU poll.

Blame your fellow DU'ers if you don't like the results.

Oh. Wait a minute. You just did.

Nevew mind.

[Capn Sunshine]

44. Too many hippies voting, I'm sure!

[JVS]

52. I'm sure that they were all to stoned to figure out the voting procedure

[Seabiscuit]

21. The Favre fans are out in force today.

The Montana fans must be asleep.

And the Unitas fans are awol. I cast the only vote for him.

[Seabiscuit]

22. 1 point conversion kick for the evening crowd.

[AngryAmish]

23. OK, why isn't Moses Moreno on the list

or at least Bob Avalini?

[Seabiscuit]

24. OMG! Read the OP!

[AngryAmish]

26. i know, I'm a jackass

[Seabiscuit]

43. You're not alone. :)

[Seabiscuit]

25. So... you Lounge Lizards want to leave it at:

Favre: 9
Elway: 9
Montana: 8
Bradshaw: 4

:wtf:???

[NJ Democrats]

27. Montana

but I still think Eli will be the best in 10 years.

[Seabiscuit]

28. Let's hope for Eli and Ben

BTW, isn't Eli Manning the son of Payton Manning? Or am I dreaming?

[NJ Democrats]

29. Your dreaming

Eli is Peyton's younger brother. Their dad is former QB Archie Manning.

[Seabiscuit]

31. Thanks for waking me up.

[NJ Democrats]

32. No problem

[Seabiscuit]

30. What? The Montana fans just woke up?

[maveric]

33. He has no rings but Dan Fouts put up some great numbers.

Could thread a needle in triple coverage.
Its a shame that the Chargers ownership never got him a defense.

[Seabiscuit]

34. Was that your vote?

See: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x5081461

[maveric]

37. In that poll I voted Johnny Unitas. As much as I love Fouts...

Johnny U was the QB that other QB's modeled themselves after.
As far as "The Greatest"...It has to be Elway. He could move the chains better than any other, in so many different ways. "The Drive"!!
Its a shame he's such a freep.

[Seabiscuit]

35. 4% Unitas? WTF???

[SKKY]

36. Gotta go with the kid from The University of Louisville...

...representin', as it where.

[rppper]

38. i fart in the general direction of this poll

lets look at some of the greatest QB's that were left out to dry here....

where is warren moon? his passing stats are just below marino's and elways....farve is still 3500 yards behind him....aikman is nowhere close...he's the 20th qb on the list...but he has 3 rings(and i am a life-long 'boys fan). steve deberg and dave kreig have more passing yards than steve young or terry bradshaw. vinnie testeverde has more passing yards than either of them and more than joe montana!!! believe it folks....vinnie t!!!

the exclusion of dave kreig, vinnie testeverde and steve deberg is just a travesty...a travesty i tell you........

*****SARCASM OFF*****

[Seabiscuit]

41. Why didn't you mention those names during the first poll?

They might have attracted enough attention there to make it to this poll.

Please read the OP.

[beyurslf]

39. Joe.

[Gato Moteado]

40. how could you leave bob avellini off of this poll??????

wobellini was the greatest ever!

[Seabiscuit]

42. Please read the OP.

You're a day late and a dollar short.

[Gato Moteado]

46. no, actually i was being a smartass.....

avellini sucked.

[WCGreen]

45. And no Otto Graham.....

[Seabiscuit]

47. OMG:

See: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x5081461

[WCGreen]

50. Sorry....

I've been real busy on an election and haven't been keeping up on DU as much as I would like....

[Seabiscuit]

48. Shameless kick for Saturday.

[Seabiscuit]

49. This poll has run its course. Results posted elsewhere.

[smitty]

51. As a Wisconsinite, I have to go with Farve. But Montana and

Elway are outstanding choices.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

53. Staubach. Horrible childhood memories. If my team, the Giants,

left him 7 seconds - he could take the Cowboys down field and score - every time.
