OK. I added a few more names. I think I have about 70 more names on the list. I am getting my data from profootballreference.com if anybody wants to check anything. I'd appreciate it if anyone notices an error, let me know.
I started at the top of the list of Career Passer Ratings.
Couple of things I noticed. Sid and Otto were extremely far above average. Either everyone else in the NFL sucked or those guys were incredible.
Apparently an average QB can get into the HOF if they play for a good team. Bradshaw and Aikman wouldn't have been in if they played on other teams. They just were not very good.
I don't like going by wins. If you don't like passer rating because it depends too much on the rest of the offensive players, going buy wins is 10 times worse. Then you have the running game, D and ST to split the credit with. Instead of just the receivers. It takes a village to raise a championship trophy
I have always said I would put Favre about even with Trent Green. Another QB who had a mediocre performance in the Super Bowl that the rest of the team carried for him. Green didn't have the talent, but he didn't screw up as much either. Add them together and they come out about the same. I had them both right at top 15 of the last 20 years. So far they are about top 25 all time. But that is only with 70 on the list.
Top 10 current Passers in order.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.
