Are Jeff Hostetler, Doug Williams, and Trent Dilfer also better than Marino because they each won a Super Bowl? You have to take into account all sorts of other factors, especially the quality of the team around the QB, but also the coaching, ownership, the era (e.g., PI penalties), and how many healthy years he played. I'm not dissing Brady (although I despise his Marcia face), but having watched both him and Marino, there's no question, to me, that Marino was better. Put him on Brady's teams, let him play there until he was 45, and he would have won more championships. Is the difference between 1 to zero different than 7 to zero? Quote

Put him on Brady's teams, let him play there until he was 45, and he would have won more championships. You play. To win. The game. Winning isn’t the only metric to use when evaluating QB, but it’s an important one. QBs do more than throw the ball. Taking care of the ball, not taking sacks, calling audibles, making clutch plays, and leadership are all important factors when evaluating a QB. I’m thinking that Brady was better than Marino in all of these facets. I used to think Bellichek was the best coach of all time. His record without Brady is making me reconsider that evaluation.

Gunsgoodtime Posted October 4, 2023 Posted October 4, 2023 Dude needs to step it up, 4 games into the season now and only has 2 offensive player of the weeks! Quote

Saxum Posted October 4, 2023 Posted October 4, 2023 From Bills PR (what an easy job): Josh Allen has been named AFC Offensive Player of the Week. Allen has now been named player of the week in 5 of his 11 career regular season games vs. the Miami Dolphins. Quote

If he took any praise for it the media would have came back and said "Josh thinks he's the reason he won this award?!?!?!" And then show a picture of diggs looking like he's yelling at Josh but it was actually right after the last TD he threw him and they were celebrating.... Or...... Were they????? Quote
