Dan Fouts' arm provided lots of entertainment and highlights and Dan Marino had an arm an a half. All you have to know about Dan Marino is he was slow but wasn't sacked for two years. Why? Because he had such a quick release. Marino makes my list as one of the all time best, and in his day was the best quarterback I'd seen with my own eyes.

Growing up a Green Bay Packers fan in Wisconsin, Lynn Dickey was our version of Dan Fouts. Call him "mini Dan Fouts" or "Dan Fouts Junior." Lots of entertainment value. Brett Favre was basically an improved version of Lynn Dickey for the Packers faithful, with the key quantitative difference being that Favre could run. Nearing the end of his long and battered career, I would say that my grandmother could run faster than Dickey.
