Joe Montana. Still my favorite QB. He didn't have the mobility to move around like I like, but the man was awesome in the pocket and under pressure.

Well, if there were two minutes left on the clock, no time outs, and 80 yds to go for a touchdown, who would I pick to drive the team down the field? Joe Montana. Best in the business! Especially when you consider his size and the elbow and back surgery that he endured. The guy had ice water running thorugh his veins.
I dscount Marino because he was one-dimensional. He couldn't handle a running game or didn't want to. Besides, a lot of his stats were produced when Miami was out of the game and the other team played a soft prevent defense.

Jim Kelly, a great man and one of the most underrated quaterbacks ever. Kelly holds the all-time NFL record for most yards gained per completion in a single game (44), established on September 10, 1995 in the Bills' game against the Carolina Panthers. He recorded an NFL best 101.2 passer rating in 1990, led the league with 33 touchdowns passes in 1991, and made the pro bowl four times (1987, 1990, 1991, and 1992).
In his four Super Bowls, Kelly completed 81 of 145 passes for 829 yards and 2 touchdowns, with 7 interceptions. His 81 completions and 145 attempts are the second most in Super Bowl history behind Joe Montana. In Super Bowl XXVI, he set a record with 58 pass attempts, and in Super Bowl XXVIII he set a record with 31 completions (this was later surpassed by Tom Brady's 32 completions in Super Bowl XXXVIII).
Kelly finished his 11 NFL seasons with 2,874 completions in 4,779 attempts for 35,467 yards and 237 touchdowns, with 175 interceptions, all of which are Buffalo records. He also rushed for 1,049 yards and 7 touchdowns.
On August 3, 2002, Kelly was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Kelly was enshrined during the first year he was eligible, and headlined a class which also featured John Stallworth, Dan Hampton, Dave Casper and George Allen. Fellow Hall of Famer and former head coach, Marv Levy, was Kelly's presenter at the ceremony.

Joe Montana, John Elway, or Terry Bradshaw.
They all won Super Bowls. Tom Brady might wind up being the best of them all. There are no John Elways on this list. He had the numbers and the wins.

A lot of misspellings above, but Joe Montana is the best ever. One guy who doesn't get enough credit is Drew Bledsoe. He's definitely not the best ever, but I'd put him in the top 10 easily.

Well I do not know why Dan Morino is, but I have head that a fellow named Dan Marino was quite good. I have to give a hats off to other guys like Brett Favre and Steve Young or even Joe Namath, they were all great.

Terry Bradshaw. Only he and Montana won four Superbowls. But Bradshaw called all his own plays and operated and vertical, downfield passing game (as opposed to montana who made a career on short passed).
