18. Phil Simms didn't play against the Bills
he played against John Elway. Broker his ankle the year they played the Bills, Jeff Whiney "I'm not a back up Quarterback" played against the Bills.

11. Me too, RL



He was so much fun to watch and had so much charisma. He played one a hell of a game too. I think he deserved the MVP, I think he had 3 TD passes. I'll never forget the game that year on a Thursday night against the Vikings. McMahon came in off the bench with like 2:00 left in the game and threw 3 TD passes to win the game.


Great minds think alike!:hi:

How's your dad doing, BTW?


GO BEARS!!!

12. Rex Grossman
1) He's with the Bears

2) He's kind of cute.

I don't have a criteria for deciding this.

21. Kapp, sorta by tradition
He and I went to the same junior high school. 'Course, he was like 16 years ahead of me.



I'll spare y'all the rest of my Joe Kapp story.

24. Chris Chandler, because I knew him in college
Nice guy.

Then I guess I'd pick Bob Griese, because I loved those early '70s Dolphins (they all had the greatest names). :D

25. Being from the Buffalo area --
I would have to say Jim Kelly. He was a very gutsy quarterback. Never got that Super bowl ring, but he sure did try.

27. Bob Griese, because he threw the ball the least
* 8 out of 11 in the Super Bowl to complete the unbeaten season
* 6 out of 7 a year later

Not that was football, line of scrimmage dominance. I despise the pantyhose passing games of today.

28. Bradshaw!
Without a doubt, the most versatile qb of them all. He could run, he could pass, he could scramble, he could throw, he could toss, he could do it all. He definitely wasn't a one trick pony nor a prima donna. He played real football the way it was meant to be played. (Before the salaries got so outrageous and all the players got so damn big that they had to "protect" the qb at all costs.)
