    as a biased Cowboys fan Roger Staubach. In terms of winning championships Terry Bradshaw. In terms of pure skill Brett Favre.

    Fouts, Elway, Marino, Unitas, Montana, Favre, Moon, and Young

    Kurt Warner is without a doubt the most efficient and rewarding quarterback when he is healthy, not to mention one of the best ever stories in the NFL. From stocking shelves in a supermarket to becoming the Superbowl MVP.....come on.

    There are so many greats that have already been mentioned. Joe Namath didn't have spectacular stats, but he's one of the best passers I've ever seen. When he threw the ball, it looked like it was on a line.

    Warren Moon or Joe Nameth, maybe Brad Johnson

    Brett Favre. Brett Favre is the greatest quarterback ever. You could cut off both his arms and legs and he'd still be the best torso in football.

    There are too many good QBs to mention.
