Right now Brady.   I fully expect Rodgers to surpass him when all is said and done.

Brady is definitely the luckiest quarterback of all time.

Greatest is hard to say. I group all the great quarterbacks in one group and say that I would take any of them and be happy.  Football is a team sport, so it really shouldn't matter if you have Marino, Elway, Manning, Farve, Brady, Montana, Bradshaw, Unitas, etc....

I would just like to point out that you have all agreed that it is Dan Marino already as a condition to join this board.

lol


As far as pure physical qb skills... Dan Marino (was there any doubt?  Cheesy)   Peyton Manning @ #2.
Go kick rocks if you think championships should be a measuring stick for great football players. This isn't a one man sport.

I might be in the minority, but I wouldn't even put Brady in the top 5.  Marino, Favre, Manning, Montana, Elway...then maybe Brady.

I think I have to say Brady, at this point, as much as it pains me.  For the longest time, I felt Manning was the better player, and I think that it's true that he's the better pure passer (as is Marino), but in terms of all aspects of the game, Brady takes it.  He makes great, great choices.

You could say Brady is the greatest of all time.

But his Super Bowl wins prove he is the luckiest quarterback of all time.

His Super Bowl wins prove that not only is he an excellent QB, but he is employed by a team with an excellent front office and arguably one of the greatest coaches in NFL history.

...or it could be luck, I suppose.   Roll Eyes

really?  He was on the wrong side of what unquestionably was the single luckiest play in super bowl history,  probably the single luckiest catch in nfl history.

Many quarterbacks go their whole careers without having their teammates force an opposing defender to fumble after they throw an interception.  Brady has had that happen at least three times in his career.

Many quarterbacks go their whole careers without having their teams return blocked field goals for touchdowns. Brady has had that happen to him at least twice. 

Brady has a winning record in playoff games in which has thrown at least three interceptions (2-1).   

Brady has a winning record in playoff games in which he has thrown at least two interceptions (4-3).

Brady has a winning record in playoff games in which his quarterback rating has been below 80 (7-4).

^^^ None of those sound as much like luck as they sound like Brady has had some excellent teams around him.
