Dan Marino was included in the NFL all time quarterbacks.

The ten choices were:

Joe Montana, Tom Brady, Johnny Unitas, Otto Graham, Sammy Baugh, John Elway, Peyton Manning, Roger Staubach, Brett Favre and Dan Marino.

It's wonderful to see such a great player get the recognition he deserves. 

In 2005, when Marino was inducted into the pro football hall of fame.  Chris Shashaty wrote this article:

He makes several good points in it, for example how far Marino was ahead of the field in productivity even though he played before 2004. 

He also points out where Tom Brady would be without that fabulous defense and that genius of a head coach. 

I don't agree the Belichick is a genius, but the defense part sure is true.

This quote is very good

"Pass poorly in football and you still can win if you can run the ball and play good defense." 

This is definitely true for Brady.  I wonder if it's true for the other quarterbacks.

Manning was the opposite.  He would often perform well, but his team would still lose.  Ironically, he won his first Super Bowl with one of his worst postseasons statistically. 

I am very surprised Drew Brees was not included. 

Garbage list that has some of those guys and no Brees, since he's the GOAT

Nope

I thought you once said Marino was the best quarterback of all time.  Or am I mistaken?

Brady isn't even in my top 4....Marino, Brees, Manning and Montana

Brees benefits  greatly by playing most of his games indoors.  Brady and Rodgers can complete passes not just in a dome or nice weather but during snowstorms as well.
