Agree.....Elway is way over rated. If you blindly looked at QB stats and picked your quarterback.....Steve Young would be the choice....knowing who they are I wanted to say Joe Montana.
For all the Elway lovers that argue about all his great fourth quarter comebacks....here is what I have to say.....why were you behind so often that you had to make a comeback? Elway fans will argue he has 2 Superbowl rings...that is true. He finally got those when he didn't pass most of the game. I can name a ton of quarterbacks that I would never want to be QB's on my team but they won Super Bowl Rings...so is Eli a great QB...no.

Dan Marino was a great regular season QB, but was a big time CHOKER in the playoffs. I don't want to hear about how he didn't have a running game or a defense. He had so many horrible games in the playoffs. That is a fact.
Career Playoff Record:
Marino 8-10
Elway 14-8
AFC Championship:
Marino 1-2
Elway 5-1
Super Bowl:
Marino 0-1
Elway 2-3
Regular season stats don't mean shit. Anyway you slice it, Elway was a better QB than Marino.

Trent Dilfer 1-0 Super bowls. He is better than both?
11 guys on the field at one time. No one QB will win any game ever. Hasn't happened as of yet and never will happen. I don't care how good you are.
you get 100 football fans in the same room and ask which QB is the greatest ever ... you will never get a unanimous decision.
so?
Is that the only upset in NFL history?
There's a saying .... "Any Given Sunday" and that came about for a reason. So unless it was Krieg and Marino dueling it out solo on the field or they were playing tennis, Seattle outplayed Miami is a more accurate description.
That's not all you ever hear. He never won a superbowl. Ya that's a shame. There are some incredible players that fall in that category. Only ONE TEAM wins it every year. No one player has gone out there and won a super bowl by himself and no TEAM has ever won it without a million things going right that whole year.
as far as that season in 1983 goes. Marino was a rookie that became the starter in week 5 and the team won 9 of 11 once he took over. The loss to Seattle was due to the large part to back-to-back fumbles by Miami's kick returner late in the 4th. Marino never choked.
John Elway overrated!.....Really?
I say no....That`s just me though.
