will Brett Favre be known as the greatest qb in NFL history because he is the iron man and only 3x mvp?

No .. Brett Favre will go down as Top 10 QB for those reasons but he is completion % is lower and turnover ratio is higher than other elite level QB's. Plus Favre only one 1 SB. \n\nI think a lot of experts now consider Elway to be the best of all-time, considering he won 2 SB's in his last two seasons.  Some think Tom Brady has shot to be considered the best all-time given the fact that he has won 3 SB so early in his career and his play has improved each season.  \n\nMy Top Ten of All-Time:\n\n1. John Elway\n2. Joe Montana\n3. Dan Marino\n4. Steve Young\n5. Otto Graham\n6. John Unitas\n7. Roger Staubach\n8. Jim Kelly\n9. Brett Favre\n10. Warren Moon

Brett at 50 is still going to be one of the best in the game. They guy should stay as long as he wants. He's a three time MVP, a leader, and a football player until he dies. His arm is sharp, his mental awareness is still good. He just needs a line and a supportive running game. Look at John Elway, as his career got longer they took a lot of the pressure off of Elway by giving  him a great running game. That is not happening for Brett, he's still carrying the entire team. He's a little past his prime to be carrying a bunch of lazy players. And on top of it all his line is lucky to give him 2-3 seconds in the pocket. He's almost running like David Carr is in Houston. And his running game is just horrible! With a better team around him, Brett will be back, if not I'm sure he'll retire. But like I said, he's still one of the best in the game. Just like Junior Seau, Mark Brunell, and Orlando Pace. Old men who just have football in their blood - they are all still great, just a bit past their prime.

He probably will have the best stats of any qb but if he doenst win a super bowl he will not b the best ever

Brady, Elway, and Nameth are known more for their Super Bowl victories.\n\nAikman, Young and Montana had SB titles AND great stats, but it is Joe Montana that has more recognition because ha has more Super Bowls than either of the other two, and his statistics are legendary.

Brett Favre is easily one of the top 5 QB's of all time..Kurt Warner had 3 good seasons.

Payton Manning will at the end of his career be the best quarterback to have ever played the game and that will ever play the gave period ... no-one will ever be as good as him ... and the colts will go undefeated this year and win the superbowl easy ... they just got past 2 games inwhich ALL the critics thought they would lose.

I am guessing Favre. I haven't heard nothing about McNair. They both should retire though.

Peyton will be known as one of the best, there are a lot of shoes to fill there and he has not been to nor won the Superbowl yet.  The only 2 really great QB's to not win one are Marino and Kelly.  The best ever?  He has to look up to Bradshaw, Montana, Aikman and Elway  before anyone can claim that for Peyton.  Maybe he will, we will have to see.  Joe Montana was the best QB ever, cool under pressure and very few mistakes and a whole bunch ' o Super Bowl rings.\n\nL.T. by far is the best running back the Chargers have ever had.  But, he too, has a long way to go to stand up to Payton, Brown, Sanders and Thurman.  Walter Payton was the best running back ever.  He NEVER had a really good offensive line and he held the rushing record for a long time before Emmit passed it.  Emmit had a VERY good offensive line for several years, He is good but not as good as a Payton or Barry Sanders.

Yes and im sick of people who done see it. If you watch any Packer game you would see he still is one of the elite. He has no receivers and a rookie line protecting him and hes still doing ok. Give him some weapons and he would look just like the 3 time mvp

Oh get a grip to people picking active QBs, espically ones like Brady. I can't pick a greatest of all time. You have different eras and changes in the game. Now that said I would say Dan Marino would always be on the list of the best. This despite never winning the Superbowl, and only going once. That proves how much better he is then these ones that do nothing but go to the Superbowl. After all who would know who those guys are if they weren't going?

Dan Marino with out a doubt. He is always mentioned with the top QBs. Name ONE other QB without a ring who is always listed in the top 5 at least.

I am actually going to say no, and if Vince Young falls this low which is possible.  Watch for a surprise pick of Young here.  I think it looks as if Green Bay needs a QB who can be an MVP and from what I saw of Aaron Rodgers, Vince Young looks like a much better QB in terms of leadership and talent.

Steve Young was the best QB of the 90s for many reasons. One in particular stands out to me: Young was expected to fail in the eyes of the fans after Joe Montana departed with his legacy to Kansas City. Young surpassed all expectations of him, and his 6 TD Super Bowl game was the high point of his career.\nComing in at a close second is Favre. He won the Super Bowl because of himself. He had talent around him (i.e. Sterling Sharpe, Antonio Freeman, Mark Chmura), but it was all because of him and his legacy that he won. He didn't have the superior defense behind him like Aikman did, nor did he have the greatest WR of all time and the mastermind of the West Coast offense coaching him like Young did.\nFalling to third is Dan Marino. He set all sorts of records, led the prestieged Dolphins franchise to many playoff berths, and was named to the HOF. The reason he can't be ranked higher is because he never won the Super Bowl for them. He only made it once, falling to Montana's 49ers in the '84 SB. He was probably the greatest ever, statistically, but the other two mentioned get great credit for winning the SB. \nHONORABLE MENTION: Troy Aikman, Warren Moon

Brett Favre...only one of the best QBs ever and his personality, love for the game, and family history make him a fan favorite who can easily be related to.

Brett farve isnt retired. Elway is the best because he retired  on top.

Currently it is Brett Favre...but all-time at any position is Jim Marshall with 270 consecutive starts.
