Just for fun: Legends QB

While we're waiting to discover if/when there will be a new Legends game,
who would you want to be your teams legendary QB?

I'm a Bucs fan - so I'd go with Doug Williams - not much of a legend, I suppose, but it is the Bucs and he did lead them to 3 winning seasons.

Since I live in Colorado, I feel I can make a good case for the Broncos as well, of course for them it's an easy pick: Bubby Brister - what a player!

P.S. Yes, that cover is sharp. I could see where older era players may need a montage as a simple b&w pic wouldn't do.

I'd go with Marino too. I'd love to see VC take a stab at having distinctive QB drops and releases

"Signature" style releases, dropbacks etc. would be so nice. Even seeing Marino quickly licking his hand before going under snap, or how he went nuts calling audibles. That would be great.

Re: Just for fun: Legends QB

I think some of this should be weighted towards younger players. It would help 2K if some of the Legends didn't play so long ago and they might be more likely to select someone still announcing over a better older player. Here is a list I came up with (some help with research on wikipedia). I'm sure there are better options in certain spots.

Buffalo Jim Kelly
New England Tony Eason
Miami Dan Marino
NY Jets Joe Namath

Cleveland Brian Sipe/Bernie Kosar
Cincinnatti Ken Anderson/Boomer
Baltimore Johnny Unitas
Pittsburgh Terry Bradshaw

Indianapolis Jim Harbaugh
Tennessee Warren Moon
Jacksonville N/A
Houston N/A

San Diego Dan Fouts
Denver John Elway
Oakland Ken Stabler
Kansas City Len Dawson

NY Giants Phil Simms, YA Tittle
Dallas Cowboys Troy Aikman, Roger Staubach
Philadelphia Norm Van Brocklin, Ron Jaworski, Randall Cunningham
Washington Joe Theismann, Sonny Jurgenson

Detroit Bobby Layne
Green Bay Bart Starr
Chicago Jim McMahon, Sid Luckman
Minnesota Fran Tarkenton

Tampa Bay Doug Williams (Steve Young doesn't count here)
Atlanta Steve Bartkowski
New Orleans Archie Manning
Carolina Kerry Collins

Seattle Dave Krieg
Arizona Neil Lomax
St. Louis Norm Van Brocklin
San Francisco Joe Montana, Steve Young

That would be awesome. Has any football game actually rated the QB's release quickness? Marino's release was one of the fastest of all time while guys like Kerry Collins and Randall Cunningham had long windups. Having more accurate short, medium and deep accuracy ratings would be really nice too. I still remember how awesome Marino was back in Tecmo.
