Wasn't Johnny U the Colts starting QB when they won S.B. V?

My bad, Unitas lasted until the middle of the second Q before having to move aside and let Earl Morrall win it.

Brady already thinking about a division title and 1st round bye next year.

Brees looked pretty cooked towards the end of last year. I think Brady was already the heavy favorite in that division.

Great career. But he was washed and made a good call to bow out now.

Yeah but it's still kind of questionable putting Unitas on the list I think. Unitas never won a Super Bowl but he was a winner who won back to back NFL Championships. But unfortunately for him with regard to this designation he was already 33 years old in the first season the Super Bowl was played (and so was Raymond Berry).

I totally agree, just real easy to forget that SB for Unitas.

Hard to believe he was actually cut by the Steelers, wow!

Just think at left tackle HOFer Jim Parker, at WR HOFer Ray Berry, at RB HOFer Lenny Moore, the first great pass receiving RB. at TE HOFer John Mackey the first stud TE. Lucky Johnny U. I do have him right beside Brady, Otto and Montana on my QB Mount Rushmore.

Whats the successor rumors @bksballer89 ? Espn saying jameis if they can sign him and they obv can.

All im hearing from the saints beat guys is Jameis. Saying he may sign a deal like Cam did. Sounds like they want to give him one year and see how it goes. If he can limit his turnovers, it can go pretty well imo

Brady’s first choice was the Saints if Brees did this a year earlier

How he did what he did with his size was amazing. (not mobile like Wilson)

As of right now he is either one or two in all the important QB stats, next stop Hall of Fame.

I do have some doubts TV will work for him, he seems too nice. Might be wrong,

Worked for Steve Young...
