Everyone has talked about Favre's int's, and sure, I understand they are a factor, but Favre took chances, and sometimes they bit him, and most of the time, he was suuccessful. In that respect, I'd rather have a guy that throws for 50 tds and 20 ints than a guy that throws for 20 tds and 10 ints. To me, the TD to INT ratio is more important. So here is how all the guys we have mentioned (and some that we didn't) stack up:

Please note, I double checked the stats on these to make sure, I apparently am a little dislexic (sp?) and was quoting Favre at +145 when he is +154. My bad...these are the accurate readings:

1- Marino - +168
2- Favre - +154
3- Manning - +153
4- Montana - +134
5- Young - +125
6- Brady - +111
7- Tarkenton - +76
8- Elway - +74
9- Jurgensen - +66
10- Esiason - +63
11- Kelly - +62
11- Krieg - +62
13- Moon - +58
14- Staubach - +44
15- Simms - +42
16- Graham - +39
17- Unitas - +37
17- Kosar - +37
19- Aikman - +24
20- Theismann - +22
21- Fouts - +12
22- Bradshaw - +2
23- Tittle - -6
24- Baugh - -16
25- Blanda - -41
26- Namath - -47

Kinda funny that the ones that take the most chances are the ones that succeed. Look at Aikman, widely recognized for his accuracy, and he's sitting at only a plus 24.
