The contrast between Brady and Farve is fascinating. Brady remembers seemingly every game, every play. Farve not so much. That’s not even really a knock on Farve. Brady is just on another level (yes I already knew this)

Holy shit this Brady / Belichick top 100. Porn
Elway might be out. Curious if Staubach gets in as the best guy of the 70's.
They've had Baugh as best of the 40's, Graham as best of the 50's, Unitas as best of the 60's. Are they really going to include no one from the 70's? You know Bill wants to include Roger.

Too bad he didn’t have such good lighting on that dick pic he harassed the Jets employee with.
When you look at Elway's page at footballreference, there's not a lot of black ink there.

Fun watching the Roger clips from half a century ago and thinking again about how any scrambling QB after him is some unprecedented unique weapon we've never seen before. Collinsworth right there, too.
Brett Favre is the career interceptions leader and has a career passer rating two points lower than Brady has this season. He also sounds like he just doesn’t really know what he’s talking about. He should not be top 10
He was plagued with weak supporting casts for most of his career. He was a one man band forever, because he could get away with it.
There's a reason he put up the best statistical seasons of his career towards the end. And it wasn't because Elway was magically becoming a better QB as he aged into his late 30s.
Yep. The only thing that would have made this more enjoyable is Manning on set instead of Farve.
Yeah that’s the thing that’s hard for me coming from always being a bigger baseball fan than football. The stats for baseball are so much more reliable and you kind of condition yourself to roll your eyes at “you had to watch him” or “the eye test”. But with football, everything is so dependent on the people around you that you have to put so much more stock into those things.
You could be the best QB in the world but if your line sucks, your weapons aren’t any good, and/or your coach is subpar then you’re not going to have a ton of success or, at the very least, the numbers aren’t going to be as pretty.
So, either Brees, the all time TD leader, or Marino is going to be left off.
Brees won a Super Bowl.
Brees won a Super Bowl.
I think I’d actually take Marino over Brees for this list and I bet he’s the pick.
If they choose Marino, I hope Bill gets to say something on the order of " . . he played on a lot of Shula coached teams that couldn't get back to the big game but that wasn't Dan's fault."
I was dying at the end when they were talking about how many of the Top 100 had chips on their shoulders, cuz nobody has a bigger chip than Rodgers and now he’s got another one, but he’s not that great anyone and fuck him.
Yeah, he’s the guy most likely to be incensed by being omitted from the list, and the least likely to handle it constructively.
Please let someone ask him about it, preferably 17 times.
Yeah, like Brees probably shrugged his shoulders, tucked his kids in and put on a movie with his wife.
Rodgers is screaming at walls in his house and watching the video of himself in the green room on draft day till he falls asleep.
If Peyton Manning isn't a unanimous selection, someone needs their voting rights stripped. All of the others make sense.
I haven't seen the QB selection show, but was a little surprised by what seems like the Staubauch v Starr decision. I figured Starr would be among the 10 on the basis of 5 championships. But I loved Staubach as a QB in the 70s.
maybe it's a case of someone saying, he's going to make it, so I'll give a vote to someone else?
Curran being home team snarky. Bless him. But I don’t remember who votes, so...
Smaller committee than you might think, only a handful of coaches/players/media, and Curran wasnt one of them
