Maybe 3 Brady, Seymour, and Harrison, and aside from Brady those are stretches.

I agree wholeheartedly. I just think that people put too WAYYYYY too much stock into them, IMO.

Not too mention the junk he had a RB aside from Dillon that one year and Maroney last year

Going by what I've SEEN and read, and not stats:

1. Montana
2. Unitas
3. Brady
4. Staubach (he was better than Aikman)
5. Young (better than given credit for)
6. Elway
7. Manning (Archie)
8. Farve
9. Marino
10. Aikman

I think Vinatieri will make the Hall of Fame. Ty Law may have an outside shot (2001, 2003), as well as Dillon (2004). And the Patriots had very strong defenses in the seasons they won the Super Bowl (#6, #1, #2 in points allowed). I think rings are more of a reflection of the "team" and not the individual.

That being said, I'd definitely put Brady in the top 5 QB's of all time. Arguably #1 when it's all said and done. What he did this past season statistically was mind blowing.

You're kidding with Archie right? 125 TD's and 173 INT's? Two Pro Bowls?

On perhaps perennially the worst team in the history of the NFL. He was the definition of the one-man team. Many think he could have been another Montana with a good team around him.

Jim Kelly is #5 in my mind, #1 in my heart!
