Best QB ever. Hands down. Those who know and watch game and don't recite stats (from different era's) agree. Never had a running game or team defense to help win championship; this guy was the best QB to ever play game.
Pete-it is Marino's stats that are the problem. In his 3 championship game losses he had 4 TD's BUT 6 INT's and 2 fumbles, an avg. Passer Rating of around 60, and he led his offense to an avg. of only 12 p.p.g. How can a TEAM win championships when their QB is playing like that ?
QBs who were daring, with a quick release and threw deep are spectacular to watch. Off the top of my head for this type is Marino, Rodgers, Namath, and Warner.
this guy broke records in the 80s they mostly ran the ball in the 80s so all these dudes breaking records in the 2000s dont mean shit Marino is better than brady too hands down finkel is einhorn
It would be an absolute dream come true just to throw the ball back and forth with Danny Marino. Been a dolphins fan since i was a little kid in the early 80’s and it was all because of this man . He seems like just a cool ass dude. My favorite qb of all times.
Whether or not he was the greatest doesn’t concern me. (Most people feel Brady or Montana or whatever, and they may be right.) But to me, Marino was the most exciting quarterback to watch on Sundays. He had a lot of balls to throw that football into coverages that most Q-backs would not throw. (Steve Young said Dan made throws he never would have attempted.) Probably a little TOO confident at times, and that would sometimes result in an interception. But it was exciting to watch. His accuracy and release and velocity on the ball was amazing. Every time he took the snap, there was that anticipation of that long throw, hitting a receiver in stride, or into double coverage and rocketing that ball right where only the receiver could catch it. Idgaf if he won a SB or not, he was the most exciting QB to watch play the game, and in the end, isn’t that why we watch football?
@@housinauthority5258 He had to pass. They had no running game and most of his defenses were bad. So he was behind a lot in games and had to pass a lot.
Look. I know he doesn't have a ring. But that's cause the Dolphins never had a D or a running game. And he was still in playoffs and AFC championship games alot. Danny Boy is one of the greatest ever!
Yup. And they made a lot of terrible roster decisions that had a hand on both sides of the ball. And Marino suffered greatly from that. Especially when playing the Bills in the early 90's
Marino isnt even top 20. Overrated! Got to the superbowl and got smacked by montana who had a lesser team than marino. Jommy johnson once said " marino was nothing more than a second or even 3rd stringer starting games he had no business playing under center" Facts!
@Mr Sinister lesser team? What are you? 12 That niners team was a super team and way better across the board. Montana himself said Marino is one of the greatest and UNDERATED..Noob sit down before you hurt yourself
Dan Marino is the greatest of all time period. He literally had no help. No running game. Only an 1000 yrd rusher maybe once or twice. Subpar receivers. And never, ever had a defense.
@@markjefferson2434 That is such a tired narrative, lacking originality and depth. The Marks Brothers were quality receivers. The truth of the matter is the Dolphins lived by the sword and consequently died by it. In retrospect, Marino should have done more to ensure that his teams were balanced especially given the fact that the Bills had come into their own by the early 90's.
@@standupG1 lol ok,I'll make it simple for you; did he have a better offense than the 49ers? How about the 90s Bill's as you just mentioned. What about the 90s cowboys? Any offense the Patriots had since Brady has been there? What about the current rams or the rams in the early 2000s or late 90s? Hell what about defense? Running game? If you line him up with all the greats; he had the least of all those QBs on both sides of the ball. Its joke that this is even a conversation. Those guys he had were ok. They got traded,what'd they do then? He never had a moss,T.O. or a Jerry rice. He was ahead of his time. He would throw for 500byrds a game on average in today's game. We could even talk about coach and GM. He didn't have Walsh or a bellicheck. No disrespect to the most winningest coach. You think it was by accident he never won a superbowl? Crazy.
@@markjefferson2434 You're preaching to the choir. I don't doubt Marino's prowess. I'm a fan. Shit, I even lived on the same street he used to live on. I'm sending you a pair of Isotoner gloves so you can catch his balls on a deep route should he line up under center once more for old time's sake.
Marino was forced out by coaching staff taking new direction, I love the fact he didn't play on another team but, still wonder what could of been if he had been put on team with all the weapons in place ???
@@spence7985 Marino played a bad game-2 TD's BUT 2 INT's also, a Passer Rating of only 54.9, and he led his offense to only 14 pts. How can a TEAM win when their QB is playing like that ?
You think Marino is the reason the dolphins didn’t win all those years?? He’s the only reason mediocre team with a terrible pass defense, no running game even made the playoffs and were fun to watch. Was he perfect no? But no one is. He’s the greatest passer ever.
@@iamtman1 I hear your opinion but here are some facts. Dan had 12 teams that were Top 10 on offense, 7 teams that were Top 10 on defense, and 9 teams where his backs had over 2,500 yds. rushing and receiving. There are plenty of examples of other QB's doing a lot more with less.
Start with Jim Kelly-he had 2 teams ('91 and '93) in the S.B. even though they were OFFICIALLY Ranked 27th (out of 28 teams) on Defense. When you add up the 4 main Team Rankings-2 for offense and 2 for defense-you can see how a team was statistically speaking
Idk man youtube some Broadway Joe Namath highlights & checkout his release , Marino reminded me of Namath as far as quick release & rifle arm strength .
Out of any football player I ever listened to (Dan Marino) seems to be the most likeable, maybe John Madden who I don't think played in the NFL would be tied, R.I.P to John Madden...
Bubble screen: An offensive play in which an eligible receiver lines up on the wide side of the field and cuts quickly towards the quarterback immediately after the snap to receive a pass. The offense will attempt to get a series of blockers out in front of the receiver so that the player can gain yards after the catch.
In January 2013, Marino admitted to fathering a child with CBS employee Donna Savattere in 2005, a fact he had only shared with his wife. He had previously paid Savattere several million dollars to keep the news of their daughter from the public
Marino, Montana, Elway, Kelly they all faced real defenses unlike today you breathe on the QB. Is a personal foul and the receivers back in the days used to get abused now receiver can do what they want it just to be a game of intimidation, how ever Brady is great but rules favor the offense in today's NFL.
That's what made him the BEST. He was by himself, EVERY GAME. Everyone knew what he was going to do (pass), and they still couldn't stop it. No run game, no defense either.
Only thing missing from his resume is a super bowl title. We thought back in 1984 his second season in the league, he will be back in the big game again, but it never happened. You just never know.
Marino and Brees are the 2 most underrated QB's of all times... I hate the Montana (who won 4 superbowls all with top 5 defenses) and Brady (had all top 10 defenses) get treated like they had more individual talent just because they were on better 53 men rosters. Marino was better at the position than Montana... Just like Rodgers, Manning, and Brees are better at the position than Brady, but he has much more help, year in and year out, due to Bellichick and the recruiters and staff... This is what happens when you let the people who aren't the smartest make these determinations. so Foles is better than Marino, now???????
Silver Jaiden You’re a moron! The offense still had to perform against top D’s with Montana and Brady at the helm. You’re ridiculous! Play the position of QB and then talk smack! Montana and Brady didn’t or don’t make the common mistakes MOST QB’’s make. There are SO MANY variables in the DECISION MAKING process of throwing the ball ACCURATELY along with throwing to the OPEN receiver DEPENDING on what the DEFENSE is giving. The instinctive more athletic QB’s who have played in the NFL have mostly FAILED. VICK is the PERECT example...GREAT athlete...however lacked great decision making when pressured which had he NOT had his great escapability with speed, Vick would have had a VERY HIGH Sack Ratio GUARANTEED! ELWAY was IMO the MOST TALENTED QB during his era and possibly of ALL TIME with a GREAT ARM and LEGS to avoid pressure when needed...ELWAY should’ve won more SB’s but to your point didn’t have a balanced D to match his offense along with never having a great line with a superior RB until DAVIS showed up in ELWAY’s two final SB appearances which he finally WON! Manning and Brees throw or threw the ball 35-45 times a game along after QB’s were HANDS OFF...ENOUGH SAID! They both are HOF QB’s...keep in mind MONTANA played when QB’s were FAIR GAME and DEFENSE’s (Bears, Giants, Saints, Eagles) were FIERCE!! MONTANA played them ALL, took his licks and still found ways to WIN 4 SB’s with 11 TD’s...ZERO INT’s. Case Closed KID!!!! MONTANA IS GOAT!!! Hands down!!!
But why only 1 Ring Dan-the '84 Conf. Champ. Why-because of the way he played in the other 3 championship games. He had 4 TD's but 6 INT's, a Comp.% of UNDER 50%, an avg. Passer Rating of UNDER 60, and he led his Offense to an avg. of only 12 p.p.g. How can a team win championships when their QB is playing like that ??
False. He played in 3 AFC championship games and he still holds the conference championship record throwing 421 yards and 4 TDs. In the other 2 championship games he had a total of 4 TD passes dropped that ended up in Zero points. It's obvious you just look up stats and never even watched those playoff games. Also in the 1995 playoffs vs Buffalo, his receivers had 10 passes dropped in 1 playoff game which is also a postseason record with most drops. Cant have good passer rating, completion percentage, TDs, etc when you receivers keep dropping passes. Marino is the greatest QB I've ever seen
My childhood friend's dad played for the Dolphins and he'd go with his family to Dan Marino's house for Thanksgiving some years. Great reason for me to be jealous of him.
I love the way Marino didn't get baited into the Brady better than Montana narrative. Truth of the matter is I'm sure Marino, Kelly, Elway, Montana, Aikman , Staubach, etc all feel today's NFL pecking order has been made out to be a joke because of the flag football mentality. That's why it's like "what do you think"? Marino knows deep down today's QB's that throw for 5000 doesn't equate to him throwing for 5000 and most of the QB's like Johnny Unitas, Bert Jones, etc could have played until they were 50 with today's watered down protection. That whole conversation is a joke.
Before Brady there WAS football. In that era from 1984-1998, Montana easy number 1. But number two is tough. I’m a die hard Broncos fan from before their first SB against Dallas. So I’m a good person to have a take on this: Loved Elway! Jumped up and down when we got Elway. But those first 5 years, Dan was better than Elway. No question. Dan was an assassin. Elway would throw two interceptions and fumble. Then he’d construct a drive in the last minutes or OT for a thrilling win. Dan just beat your azz in 4 quarters. Dan is the best passer the game has ever seen. Joe Namath number 2. Quick, accurate, ESPECIALLY with the long ball. Today’s dink and dunk sh!t puts me to sleep
1 Joe Montana (The GOAT) 2 Dan Marino 3 John Elway 4 Aaron Rogers 5 Steve Young 6 Tom Brady 7 Peyton Manning 1-5 would dominate in any era. Brady would have struggled in the 80's. Can you imagine Montana and Marino playing now with all these QB friendly rules? Millennial fans have no clue. Brees is second all time in stats, that is laughable.
@@CesarPerez-it8xy No hate but you are obviously not aware of all the offensive changes that have taken place since 1993. You can google it your self but you are 100% wrong about the rules being the same. FACTS
@@CesarPerez-it8xy Just because YOU say it does not mean it's true. The following are rule changes since you do not understand: 1993: It is not intentional grounding when a passer, while out of the pocket and facing an imminent loss of yardage, throws a pass that lands beyond the line of scrimmage, even if no offensive player has a realistic chance to catch the ball (including if the ball lands out of bounds over the sideline or end line). 1995: When tackling a passer during or just after throwing a pass, a defensive player is prohibited from unnecessarily and violently throwing him down and landing on top of him with all or most of the defender’s weight. 2002: It is illegal to hit a quarterback helmet-to-helmet any time after a change of possession. 2006: Low hits on the quarterback are prohibited when a rushing defender has an opportunity to avoid such contact. 2009: Clarified rule regarding low hits on passers: A defender cannot initiate a roll or lunge and forcibly hit the passer in the knee area or below, even if he is being contacted by another player. This is known as the “Brady rule,” because it was implemented after Brady was knocked out for the entire 2008 season. If you’re comparing quarterbacks from earlier eras to today’s, it’s worth remembering that many older QBs had their careers shortened by plays the NFL would severely penalize today. Steve Young’s career ended because of a brutal hit from Aeneas Williams that knocks him out. Thanks you for allowing me to provide some facts to further confirm my original list. You should present facts when trying to make a comment.
@@rsp49 right!! Just look at the game man. From 91 to 2010 bret favre area. They did not protect the qb like they do today. Those ticky tack rules you mentioned are crap and rarely affected qb. Like change of possession hits to qb
Staubach, Montana, Unitas all great when you could get hit. Staubach and Unitas played when they would mug the receivers coming off the line and sometimes on the way back to the huddle.
comparing qbs directly based on their teams performance is very unfair. Brady and Montana had a top10 defense vs points in all of their SB wins. Brady had the #4 defense and #1 offense vs points in their 07-08 loss is embarrassing.
Marino should have left Miami89/90ish look how they repaid his loyalty and it's not as if they won anything once they stabbed Marino in the back Dan has !Miami in his blood
im confused whly did Dan shy away from the is brady better than montana question??? Also, Dan Marino and Johnny Unitas are the top 2 BEST quarterbacks of all time with Manning at 3rd. But, when it comes to greatest which brings in acholades and playoffs success obviously brady is 1st with montana 2nd.
Anyone who thinks 4-2 is worse than 4-0 is ridiculous. If you told me i could go to the bowl 6 times vs 4 times and both options include me winning 4 im all about the 6
I don't care that they have two championships and a perfect season. The Dolphins have always been a poorly run organization. Marino fell into their lap and they were so enamored with Marino's ability, and rightly so, that they focused entirely on the offense and completely neglected the defense for over a decade. I can't tell you how many times they lost games after putting up 45 points.
That isn't the half of it. They didn't even focus totally on offense, they focused on passing. And even then they never got Marino an elite receiver. The Marks Bros were what Marino made them. After that they expected to ride into the playoffs behind his arm and nothing else. Just pathetic.
For you youngsters, there is film of this man being hit helmet to face mask full force a couple of steps after the throw w no penalty flag! There is also film of roughing Brady without him being touched...
Jimmie gave him the defense but it was too late. Marino was already on the steady decline. Either way Miami hasn’t been the same quality level since then.
I wish Dan would of had a decent running back during his career at the Dolphins. Too bad Barry Sanders wasn't a Dolphin or Marino wasn't a Lion. As great as he was you need a well rounded team to get to or even win the big one.
Best QB never to win a SB. Now if my Steelers, and his home town would've drafted him , I think, I mean I'm pretty sure he would have at least two, if not more rings on his hand. Just sayin'...
@@mikepelligrino6329 How do you come to that conclusion? Brady is great in this era, where no one is allowed to even graze the QB, whereas Dan played when QBs were routinely pummeled. Would Brady have thrived as well under those rules? Maybe, but he would not have the numbers he has accumulated in this sissy era.
@@mikepelligrino6329 The entire argument of GOAT for any team sport is actually silly and stupid, since there is no way to prove it. It's all opinion, based on how we look at it.
WHAT A GREAT ERA FOR FOOTBALL. TRULY A SHAME ABOUT THE CLASS OF THE PLAYERS TODAY. THEY WOULDN'T STAND UP, SO I WILL NOT SIT DOWN. THEY ALSO HARASSED PLAYERS THAT DID NOT WANT TO GO ALONG WITH THEIR INSANITY. THERE WERE ALSO TO QB'S THAT THEY INTENTIONALLY LET GET HIT, BECAUSE THEY DID NOT WANT TO GO ALONG WITH THEIR BULL CRAP...................NEVER WATCHING AGAIN

In terms of pure arm talent- particularly zip on the ball? Top 3. But Brady and Montana are the top 2 in terms of accuracy and touch in CLUTCH moments

Sorry but he was terrible in the playoffs. I would take Elway over Marino everytime .

Case Closed KID!!!!
MONTANA IS GOAT!!! Hands down!!!
Brady has had top 5,top 3 and top 10 lol
Oh God I remember the Isotoner gloves I always wanted to get some for the holidays
How many HOF QBs threw this guy the ball??
But why only 1 Ring Dan-the '84 Conf. Champ. Why-because of the way he played in the other 3 championship games. He had 4 TD's but 6 INT's, a Comp.% of UNDER 50%, an avg. Passer Rating of UNDER 60, and he led his Offense to an avg. of only 12 p.p.g. How can a team win championships when their QB is playing like that ??
False. He played in 3 AFC championship games and he still holds the conference championship record throwing 421 yards and 4 TDs. In the other 2 championship games he had a total of 4 TD passes dropped that ended up in Zero points. It's obvious you just look up stats and never even watched those playoff games. Also in the 1995 playoffs vs Buffalo, his receivers had 10 passes dropped in 1 playoff game which is also a postseason record with most drops. Cant have good passer rating, completion percentage, TDs, etc when you receivers keep dropping passes. Marino is the greatest QB I've ever seen
Power too Qb DAN MARINO AND HIS FAMILY.BELLINGHIERE
Selling leather gloves, living in Miami.... Gotta love the 80's
Best QB ever.
My childhood friend's dad played for the Dolphins and he'd go with his family to Dan Marino's house for Thanksgiving some years. Great reason for me to be jealous of him.
I never realized what a Pittsburgh accent he has, reminds me of my grandpa from Pittsburgh (Z"L)
Top 5 qb of all time
Marino and Brady have the same amount of superbowl rings without cheating.
@Peter Angles No argument to be made dummy just a fact
@Peter Angles haha brady lost
He’s best passer no doubt and would throw 80 tds in todays league
THE GOAT!!!!
I love the way Marino didn't get baited into the Brady better than Montana narrative. Truth of the matter is I'm sure Marino, Kelly, Elway, Montana, Aikman , Staubach, etc all feel today's NFL pecking order has been made out to be a joke because of the flag football mentality. That's why it's like "what do you think"? Marino knows deep down today's QB's that throw for 5000 doesn't equate to him throwing for 5000 and most of the QB's like Johnny Unitas, Bert Jones, etc could have played until they were 50 with today's watered down protection. That whole conversation is a joke.
Before Brady there WAS football. In that era from 1984-1998, Montana easy number 1. But number two is tough. I’m a die hard Broncos fan from before their first SB against Dallas. So I’m a good person to have a take on this: Loved Elway! Jumped up and down when we got Elway. But those first 5 years, Dan was better than Elway. No question. Dan was an assassin. Elway would throw two interceptions and fumble. Then he’d construct a drive in the last minutes or OT for a thrilling win. Dan just beat your azz in 4 quarters. Dan is the best passer the game has ever seen. Joe Namath number 2. Quick, accurate, ESPECIALLY with the long ball. Today’s dink and dunk sh!t puts me to sleep
Montana stinks. Over rated.
1 Joe Montana (The GOAT)
2 Dan Marino
3 John Elway
4 Aaron Rogers
5 Steve Young
6 Tom Brady
7 Peyton Manning
1-5 would dominate in any era. Brady would have struggled in the 80's. Can you imagine Montana and Marino playing now with all these QB friendly rules? Millennial fans have no clue. Brees is second all time in stats, that is laughable.
Tom brady played in the early 2000s. Rules where the same as 80s and 90s. Stop the hate.
@@CesarPerez-it8xy No hate but you are obviously not aware of all the offensive changes that have taken place since 1993. You can google it your self but you are 100% wrong about the rules being the same. FACTS
@@rsp49 you where still able to blast the quarterback up until 2010. Look up the nfc championship game. Bounty gate. So no.
@@CesarPerez-it8xy Just because YOU say it does not mean it's true. The following are rule changes since you do not understand:
1993: It is not intentional grounding when a passer, while out of the pocket and facing an imminent loss of yardage, throws a pass that lands beyond the line of scrimmage, even if no offensive player has a realistic chance to catch the ball (including if the ball lands out of bounds over the sideline or end line).
1995: When tackling a passer during or just after throwing a pass, a defensive player is prohibited from unnecessarily and violently throwing him down and landing on top of him with all or most of the defender’s weight.
2002: It is illegal to hit a quarterback helmet-to-helmet any time after a change of possession.
2006: Low hits on the quarterback are prohibited when a rushing defender has an opportunity to avoid such contact.
2009: Clarified rule regarding low hits on passers: A defender cannot initiate a roll or lunge and forcibly hit the passer in the knee area or below, even if he is being contacted by another player. This is known as the “Brady rule,” because it was implemented after Brady was knocked out for the entire 2008 season.
If you’re comparing quarterbacks from earlier eras to today’s, it’s worth remembering that many older QBs had their careers shortened by plays the NFL would severely penalize today. Steve Young’s career ended because of a brutal hit from Aeneas Williams that knocks him out.
Thanks you for allowing me to provide some facts to further confirm my original list. You should present facts when trying to make a comment.
@@rsp49 right!! Just look at the game man. From 91 to 2010 bret favre area. They did not protect the qb like they do today. Those ticky tack rules you mentioned are crap and rarely affected qb. Like change of possession hits to qb
I remember when he was the Quarterback for the Miami dolphins.
Coaches can coach all day long but if the players don't take it in it doesn't matter. Players are always the difference
Dan Patrick literally just said he wasn't a great quarterback but he won the two games so yeah you should be in the Hall of Fame. Uhhh...what?
He's a stupid old POS
Staubach, Montana, Unitas all great when you could get hit. Staubach and Unitas played when they would mug the receivers coming off the line and sometimes on the way back to the huddle.
I can’t stand Elway as a person but he’s the best QB of my time til Tom Brady came in.
I loved Dan Marino his entire career!!!!!
Dan Marino-The Joe Montana of the South!!
comparing qbs directly based on their teams performance is very unfair. Brady and Montana had a top10 defense vs points in all of their SB wins. Brady had the #4 defense and #1 offense vs points in their 07-08 loss is embarrassing.
His chance at a super bowl was 1998 with Vikings. No offense to Randall.
Jonthan Olivo lol wrong you mean 2000 with the Vikings
Cus hulk hogan lives in florida too?
Marino should have left Miami89/90ish look how they repaid his loyalty and it's not as if they won anything once they stabbed Marino in the back Dan has !Miami in his blood
im confused whly did Dan shy away from the is brady better than montana question??? Also, Dan Marino and Johnny Unitas are the top 2 BEST quarterbacks of all time with Manning at 3rd. But, when it comes to greatest which brings in acholades and playoffs success obviously brady is 1st with montana 2nd.
Anyone who thinks 4-2 is worse than 4-0 is ridiculous. If you told me i could go to the bowl 6 times vs 4 times and both options include me winning 4 im all about the 6
I don't care that they have two championships and a perfect season. The Dolphins have always been a poorly run organization. Marino fell into their lap and they were so enamored with Marino's ability, and rightly so, that they focused entirely on the offense and completely neglected the defense for over a decade. I can't tell you how many times they lost games after putting up 45 points.
That isn't the half of it. They didn't even focus totally on offense, they focused on passing. And even then they never got Marino an elite receiver. The Marks Bros were what Marino made them. After that they expected to ride into the playoffs behind his arm and nothing else. Just pathetic.
For you youngsters, there is film of this man being hit helmet to face mask full force a couple of steps after the throw w no penalty flag! There is also film of roughing Brady without him being touched...
I still wonder how many people will still reference Ace Ventura and say “LACES OUT DAN!!”
Can’t believe how Shula or Jimmie couldn’t give him a running game or a def in his whole career. Sad to waste such a magnificent talent.
I am still scratching my head over that too.
Jimmie gave him the defense but it was too late. Marino was already on the steady decline. Either way Miami hasn’t been the same quality level since then.
I wish Dan would of had a decent running back during his career at the Dolphins. Too bad Barry Sanders wasn't a Dolphin or Marino wasn't a Lion. As great as he was you need a well rounded team to get to or even win the big one.
Love that Dan agrees Joe Col is Greatest QB Ever
Damn that ball had a lot of zip to it. He wasn't even warmed up.
Best QB never to win a SB. Now if my Steelers, and his home town would've drafted him , I think, I mean I'm pretty sure he would have at least two, if not more rings on his hand. Just sayin'...
That quick release is still there.
I dont understand "I had a good veteran team that was in the Super Bowl two years before"... WHAT?????
The Dolphins were in the super bowl in 1983. For the 82-83 season before Dan was drafted
The word was "predicated" not "premised" Dan, but you're still the greatest QB not to win. a SB.
Thank you Ms. Shakespeare
Dan THE MAN is the BEST I DONT CARE ABOUT THE RING
Look at the MAN
2 decade stats
Dan Marino is too modest to admit he was way better qb than Brady.
Marino knows Brady is far better.
@@mikepelligrino6329 How do you come to that conclusion? Brady is great in this era, where no one is allowed to even graze the QB, whereas Dan played when QBs were routinely pummeled. Would Brady have thrived as well under those rules? Maybe, but he would not have the numbers he has accumulated in this sissy era.
@@watchmanonthewall14 Brady is the GOAT. It was up for discussion before Brady added 4 more SB's. Not even a discussion now.
@@mikepelligrino6329 The entire argument of GOAT for any team sport is actually silly and stupid, since there is no way to prove it. It's all opinion, based on how we look at it.
@@watchmanonthewall14 Of course its opinion but I dont see it as silly or stupid.
Imagine if they gave Dan a top 10 Defense and a top 10 defense....
Plus a stud of running back. Never had that back when he played.
Marino could sling it like nobodies business. Put him on the 49ers and they may have more super bowls than they already do.
Dan licks his fingers after the last pass lmao, old habits die hard
WHAT A GREAT ERA FOR FOOTBALL. TRULY A SHAME ABOUT THE CLASS OF THE PLAYERS TODAY. THEY WOULDN'T STAND UP, SO I WILL NOT SIT DOWN. THEY ALSO HARASSED PLAYERS THAT DID NOT WANT TO GO ALONG WITH THEIR INSANITY. THERE WERE ALSO TO QB'S THAT THEY INTENTIONALLY LET GET HIT, BECAUSE THEY DID NOT WANT TO GO ALONG WITH THEIR BULL CRAP...................NEVER WATCHING AGAIN
Too bad he never had a running back. He would have won one.
Plunkett should be in,,
Roosevelt Green absolutely
💯💯💯
How disrespectful to say Elway over Montana! With respect Elway is not as good as their Marino or Montana.
