Yep, It is the best quarterback ever to play the game, Steve Young the former quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers. It was when he totally killed the Vikings with an 80 yard touchdown run. YAY!!!!\n\nGO NINERS!!!!!

Matt Lienart and Vince Young will both be good quarterbacks but from the following quotes\n\nLendale White USC running back\n“I would never trade away the three years with Matt as my quarterback,” White told the Denver Post. “But if I was an NFL team, I don’t know how you could not take Vince Young."\n\nJoe Montana one of the best NFL Quarterbacks ever\n"I think he's a step above the other two,"\n\nSo if my favourite quarterback and the runningback in Leinarts team would choose young over leinart who am I to disagree

Montana won all 4 Super Bowls in which he appeared...\n\nThe 49ers defeated Cincinnati for their first title in 1982, I think 26-21 was the final score... they beat Miami (and Dan Marino) in a high-scoring super bowl in 1985 (38-16), then they beat Cincinnati again, 20-16 on Montana's winning TD pass to John Taylor (1989)... and finally, they blew out Denver 55-10 in 1990 (89 and 90 were their only back-to-backs).\n\nThe Niners later beat San Diego 49-26, but that team was led by Steve Young.\n\nMontana and Terry Bradshaw are the only QB's to go 4-0 in the Super Bowl... Troy Aikman was 3-0, but he's retired... Tom Brady is also 3-0 and may add to that record at some point.

No way.Sweetness was a much better football player than Smith. Smith had decent players around him most of his career,The Bears only had a few good years and dominated on the defense. At one time the bears played without a QB, They just hiked the ball to Walter. If you put Smith with  the Bears and Payton with the cowboys you wouldnt be asking this question.

Without a doubt it was Walter Payton.  He was a superior human being and outstanding football player.

Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Troy Aikman, or Steve Young. They are probably the most highest rated quarterbacks in nfl history and in the hall of fame, except for Tom. He will be a first time ballot inductee! Oops.. I left out John Elway, sorry John!

Brady doesn't have the physical tools and talent that Favre has. He doesn't have a cannon for an arm, and he doesn't have the strength to force plays like Favre can. That being said, Brady is a much smarter QB than Favre, for exactly those reasons. He DOESN'T try to force plays. Favre got away with the gunslinger crap when he was younger and when he had upper-level receivers, but it's been his downfall for the last few years. Favre makes a lot of costly mistakes trying to thread passes into heavy coverage, and it ends up leading to a lot of INT's and has cost the Packers more than a couple games. Brady doesn't make those mistakes. He is consistent and spreads the ball around much better than Favre does (which is why NE's receivers suck for fantasy football). He recognizes that you can't make something happen on every play, and that sometimes it's better to just throw it away or take the 2 or 3 yard dump route. It's too early to say that Brady is better than Favre, but I think he's on track to be. By the way, I hate both teams so I have no personal stake in any of this.

Both of them will go into the Hall of Fame.  Brady due to 3 Super Bowl wins and Manning due to breaking almost every QB record besides a few still held by Marino.  Like another person mentioned.  It's going to depend on which one retires first.  Brady's arm has been hurting him all season, so he might be the first of the two to retire.  However, all it takes is one wrong hit or fall to put a QB out of commission.  Both quarterbacks are pretty durable, but I'd have to give Manning an edge as far as durability.  He has yet to miss a game or hardly even a play due to injuries.  More likely that not, they'll probably get initiated the same year, knowing how the rivalry is between them and how they are good friends.

Joe Namath was a mother fu*** pimp back in the day.  His stats don't add up to some other quarterbacks, but his coolness factor is unmatched.  He was probably the first "rebellious" professional athelete.  He had leadership skills and balls.  Sometimes to win in football, that's all you need.  Numbers don't always tell the entire story.
