They’ve both lost 2. But there’s a lot of difference between being 1-2 and 3-2. 3 rings puts Brady in rarefied air, not many QB get that many. And 5 total trips even with 2 loses is also a rare feat.

Five total trips is unmatched by any quarterback in history.

Yes. As much as I love to hate Brady, he's definitely a great QB.

And worthy of much respect.

As stated above, he's great because he works with what he has. Even when "big names" leave the Patriots, he adjusts, and thrives.

Now Bradshaw, I'm sorry to say was never considered a "great" QB. He just happened to play for the best team in the '70s.

Even a mediocre QB benefits when surrounded by unbelievable talent.

Staubach was a great QB, and also played on a great team.

So head to head, I'd pick Staubach as "better" than Bradshaw, despite having fewer rings.

Elway also has 5 trips, but he’s 2-3.
