Well I'm not ready to call him Marino like. Don't think anyone is ever going to be that good again in my lifetime. That doesn't mean we can't win a couple of championships with him. Marino was unfortunate to have never won a championship, it wasn't because he wasn't good enough.

Not yet either of course has to do it over the course of idk at leas 10 years?

Marino is the greatest pure passer we will likely ever see but Tua has had some monsters and if can sustain it for 4/5 more year he will break some of Dan’s franchise record and  maybe bring some of those records back home where they belong. jt has to come with title or two. I think Tua is more efficient than Danny and will have better completion percentage and less INTs.

Tua will not be a better passer than Dan but Tua can end up as the “better” quarterback.

This all comes with the understanding that Marino would have 7k yards and 80 aTDs a year if he plays in this era. If Dan ended his career like Elway there would be no debate on who was the GOAT. I hate that SB’s are considered the main thing Brady is not the goat he’s a good quarterback who was lucky had stability a friendly league and some outright fraud and cheating. He is not nearly the QB Marino was.

If Pittsburgh didn’t get spooked because of some drug rumors I bet they would have had a dynasty in the 80s

The difference is, Tua can run.   So can a lot of QBs in today's league and that almost didn't exist in yesteryear.   That's why stat keepers are looking at a different metric for QBs.  Instead of touchdown passes, they look at touchdowns responsible for in order to accommodate QBs who run for a touchdown and also for the "Philly Special" play.

It's also a different league.  The rule changes are weighing so much heavier towards offense and protecting the QB.  Marino started when you would get called for intentional grounding at the sideline.
