2020 Our Year For Sure Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 "But Vick didn't "win" the game any more than Warrick Dunn, Sam Rogers or Patrick Kerney "won" the game. Football is the ultimate team sport, and there's just no place for attributing wins and losses to one player. Vick was just 1/52." "As Dean points out, the NFL obviously agrees" Please, stop with your bullsh!tting. Wins are attributed to coaches and QBs, and everyone does it. Same for baseball pitchers, same for hockey goalies. When talking about the best QBs of all time, "Super Bowl wins" is one of the biggest issues. It's the very reason that Dan Marino is not mentioned as an all-time top QB and the reason Joe Montana is. Fans rarely talk about a running back not having a Super Bowl, or a receiver. Why is it that I know that Peyton Manning has the record for most wins in the SEC during his college days at Tennesee? Because the the SEC keeps records like that. Just because the NFL doesn't "officially" keep win/loss records doesn't mean they're not interesting or important - or that they don't exist. People other than the actual NFL do seem to have an interest in tallying wins and losses for QBs...but then again, people also have an interest in reality television. In neither case does popular opinion keep them from being a steaming pile of manure. Its a flawed statistic, because there are far too many variables that the quarterback cannot control. No QB stats are perfect, but you can sure as hell get a lot closer than counting how often the 51 other guys on a QB's team won games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
