I could be wrong but I don't think any football person could claim he was better than Unitas, or Starr, or Tarkenton, or Dawson, or Staubach, and probably others just from the 60s/early 70s.

Bob Johnson gets no respect..... overall stats are similar to Dick Allen's numbers but he didn't even get a mention for consideration.

Namath 97. This list is from the early or mid 2000s I believe.

I would add Sammy Baugh and Sonny Jurgensen to that list of great QB's. The mystique regarding Joe Namath is that in 1969 he showed the NFL world that the AFL was not a 2nd class League....when he led the Jets to a Super Bowl win over Johnny Unitas and the Baltimore Colts. The sports world (more or less) considered Namath's victory a "fluke". But, then in 1970, Lenny Dawson followed up with his Super Bowl win over the Vikings. Those were great years, if you were an old AFL fan. Namath was good, but his Receiving squad, made him greater than good....Maynard, Bell, Snell, Caster, and RB's: Boozer and Riggins (my favorite guy). Here's my ticket stub from the greatest FB game I was ever at (Jets 44 vs. Colts 34..9/24/72). Namath threw for 496 yds. and Johnny Unitas threw for 376 yds.) ![]() TED Z . |
