It's a pretty straight-forward question, but one that has been asked a great deal since the conclusion of Super Bowl LI. Who is the greatest quarterback of all-time?
Above are the 10 options that I felt are a consensus of the top 10 quarterbacks of all-time based on a series of NFL.com and NFL Network polls. But the power is now in your hands. Who is the greatest of all-time?

Honestly, Montana is the only one I consider up for debate with Brady.

It's bullshit that Troy Aikman is considered a better QB than Steve Young. Young was good enough to cause a QB controversy with Montana, at Montana's best. Give Young the 90s Cowboys, and they win 5 Super Bowls.

Brady winning his 5th Superbowl pushed him ahead of Montana. They were 1 and 1A in my mind for a while. It's Brady, Montana and then a battle for 3rd best.
And as good as Favre was, he's not in the top 5.

Roger Staubach belongs on this over Aikman or Bradshaw honestly.

It's Brady. And that's coming from a Notre Dame fan. I'd love to say it's Joe, but it's Brady.

Montana, because he never had the cheating taint that Brady, and I say that as a Patriots fan.

Roger Staubach belongs on this over Aikman or Bradshaw honestly. Roger and Otto Graham should have made the list. I mean, Otto went to 10 straight NFL Championship Games and won 7. If someone did that in the Super Bowl era, he'd be called the Greatest Athlete Of All Time. |

If someone did that in the Super Bowl era, he'd be called the Greatest Athlete Of All Time. Graham was also playing in an eight team league and had the first modern coach in Paul Brown, who built up a super team of college stars who weren't drafted by the league because of World War II. Apples to oranges. |

I'm 34. Joe Montana was who got me into football when I was four years old. As much as I love him, I gotta go with Brady.
And I despise the Pats.

Outside of Super Bowl wins, Tony Romo's numbers are just as good as Aikman's. Aikman's legend is built on playing for those great Dallas teams. |

I liked Dan Marino. Until the past 15 years, Dan was considered one of the best ever.

No such thing as a GOAT. Game is too different across decades. That being said, I'll never understand the millenial Montana hate.

I really don't care what people say. It takes more than one player to win a Super Bowl.
That said in my book, Peyton Manning is that dude. Playoff contrarian haters be damned.
Brady is hurt. Pats play Cassell. They still go 11-5 and 4-0 with Garrapolo.
Manning is hurt, Colts a mainstay in the playoffs, shit the bed and get the number one pick.
Manning goes to Denver, they instantly became title contenders and went to the Superbowl.
Now I'd rather have the rings, who wouldn't BUT the man with the superior skill set? I still have to go with Manning.
