Brady Officially Named as One of the Greatest Ever

[Dr. Strangelove]

Fwiw, I hope they don't include Elway on the list. Would rather see Graham or Luckman represent the older guys.

How does Favre end up on all of these lists? I just don't see how he can be considered top 10 all time

There will be more older guys, as there should be IMO.

J. Montana
D. Marino
J. Unitas
T. Brady
P. Manning
S. Luckman
S. Baugh
B. Favre
O. Graham
R. Staubach

I'm not saying those are the guys I would put there...most of them yes. Maybe Elway will find his way on it (wouldn't be opposed).

Agreed. Seeing a lot of the names being left off the other positions in favor of older guys makes me believe they will do the same here.

A lot of it is media fueled....the guy is one of the more beloved figures in NFL history. It is what it is.

Having said that, I always look at Favre in two careers - one with Holmgren and one after. The guy with Holmgren was a 3 time NFL MVP and the best QB in football. The guy after Holmgren was left unaccounted for and tarnished himself somewhat with his reckless play. In the end he did hold most of the records.

I agree. He was the best QB in the game in the 90s under Holmgren.

Where are they ranking them? They haven't ranked any other position....they just created a ficticious team.

That was my question. I don't think anyone is going to contest Brady or Montana on that list of top 10.
