View Full Version : 10 years from now: Top 10 Quarterbacks of all time?
I had an idea to do a top 10 list but do it in future tense. 10 years from now.
10 Years from now what would be your top 10 QB's of all time?

without looking at stats off the top of my head.
Also, not in order
P. Manning
Marino
Elway
Montana
Brady
Young
Farve
Baugh
Roethlisberger
Dawson
Honerable Mentions:
Unitis
Moon or Flutie if we count CFL
You could also stat wise make an argument for Bledsoe and Fouts.
Roethlisberger, I went back and forth between him and Brees, figuring one of them might keep it up for another 8-10yrs... and I flipped a coin.

If Bulger wins some Superbowls, throw him in there.
In no order: Marino, Montana, Favre, Manning, Elway, Moon, Tarkenton, Brady, Palmer, Unitas

Peyton Manning will be remembered as the greatest quarterback to ever play the game of football.
My list would be..
Manning
Brady
Montana
Elway
Marino
Farve
Unitas
Palmer
Brees
I think Palmer and Brees will bump guys like Jim Kelley and Namath out. I dont think Brees is a fluke. I think he'll have a Steve Young like career and bump Young out also.
Also Palmer could be as high as #3 on this list 10 years from now, but it depends on if his whole team isnt jail.
Totally disagree with Rothlisberger. That guy is garbage.

That is kinda a complicated question
Ten years from now, I reckon you could put Brady on that list and Manning most likely. Definitely have to have Elway and Montana on it, and I'd imagine Marino would squeeze onto that list as well, as far as the more recent guys go.
Guys like Sammy Baugh, who were the best of their time would earn a spot on my list. Unitas definitely. Staubach without question. Possibly Terry Bradshaw. Maybe Bart Starr.
Obviously I cannot go on telling you about all the older guys since I have a limited number of years on my lifespan. But I can tell you this:
Joe Nameth was the most over-rated quarterback of all time and the only reason why anyone would put his name on such a list is because they can't name anyone else.
And to the person who said Doug Flutie: Go watch soccer or rugby or sea paddling, because his name SHOULD NOT BE 6,000 BILLION LIGHTYEARS FROM THAT LIST.
Also Rectal Pertruder, you do realize that they invented football before 1987 right?

Aperently the DR needs his eyes checked...
If you're counting CFL stats you have to talk about Flutie and Moon being on those lists.
If you don't count CFL stats then of course not...
I'm also one of the most anti-Flutie fans you'll meet, but I have to easily admit if you count CFL stats he's on that list.
Totally disagree with Rothlisberger. That guy is garbage.
Ya know, I wasn't thrilled about putting his name up there... but looking at what he did his first 2 years... I figure if I'm going to put money on a guy with a long career probably ahead of him I'd go with him, I debated putting Brees in that spot... but since Burger already has the ring I went with him and you can make a case for Palmer, I just think 10yrs from now we'll look at him as a good QB but not top 10. It's all semi-guess work with the guys still playing except Manning and Brady.
As for Young getting knocked out... The Rings, the Rushing yds and the passer raitings I think we'll keep him in there.
Also Rectal Pertruder, you do realize that they invented football before 1987 right?
I dont get it?

Also, right now if Brady and Manning retire today, you would have difficulty making a case for them not to be on that list.
Leading the "career stats" category doesn't always mean you were the best, a lot of times it just means you played a long time.

And the last 2 spots would probably go to Young/Vick/Brees/Cutler/Quinn/Palmer/Roethlisberger/Bulger/Alex Smith/McNabb/Rivers/Leinart/Russell?/Romo?/Kellen Clemens?/E Manning??
Impossible to tell now but I would say it is likely that 2 of those guys from that list could be considered top 10 of all time in 10 years
Oh man. Ferret really got me. I didnt think about Vince Young. Every since the year that Texas won the National title. Even before the title game, i though Young was gunna be amazing and i still think that. Man i dont even know. Vince Young has top 5 possibilty. I think he can be amazing in 3 years or so.

I put Kellen Clemens in not because I think he will even play a down in the NFL, but I was more or less eluding to the fact that it is impossible to tell now.
its not impossible to make an educated guess. And saying Clemens could be top 10 of all time is retarded.

lol clearly a joke bro, I already said I don't think he will ever play a (competitve) down in the NFL

No they wouldnt cause we're talking about GOAT and its not realistic to think that a 25 year old rookie or 2nd year player could be considered GOAT.

If you're looking for a running QB I'd take Cunningham over Stewart any day of the week and Cunningham isn't making that list.

Yeah, I agree Cunnigham and Moon were much better QBs than Kordell

I didn't see you form a list, why don't you shed some of your exuberating genius?
I think Peyton is definitely on that list, as I think most people would agree.

What has Roethlisberger done to show that he will be one of the greatest QBs ever? Last time I checked he's what Rex Grossman was last year except he didn't have to throw as much.

first 2 seasons had decent stats, but not a lot of yards. last year a lot more throwing but everything else went down.
I just wanted to throw someone in my top 10 that was a "future pick" and adding the fact he has a ring already, I gambled on him over Palmer and Brees.

Oh, and this one is serious. If Trent Dilfer would have started his career on a better team we'd be talking about him right now. Seriously, the Bucs in that era where the worst team ever assembled and if he would have got his career off to a good start, I think he would be up there. Not a phenomenal athlete but a smart player and proven winner even without great players around him. Everybody needs SOME help though and that Bucs team was god-awful.

I think we need to reconsider our position on Kellen Clemens. In 10 years, he will def be at least in the top 12 QBs of all time
