I know I'll probably get ripped for this but I always consider intangibles over stats when evaluating QBs, that's why I didn't include Marino. Bottom line is Marino wasn't a winner, nor was he a leader. I always have this argument with a Dolphins friend of mine. Marino always had great stats, but he took his team to one Super Bowl, never really put his team on his back as a leader and said 'follow me and I'll show you the right way'. I always felt he was selfish and a prick to his teammates and that's why they never want anywhere.. Making the playoffs all the time is nice, but you have to do something when you get there.

I have to disagree on Marino, the problem he had was that he alway's carried his team on his back, Shula was past his prime when Marino arrived, if you put Marino in the 80's on either the 9er's or the skin's he would have more ring's than any QB in history, could you imagine what Gibb's would have done with a QB like Marino, it would have been scary.
