Marino is leaps and bounds ahead of McNabb - with one SB granted (I brought up the standard I know)

Stack McNabb against these truly great QBs (SBs, QB Rating, pure numbers)

John Elway
John Unitas
Dan Marino
Steve Young
Brett Favre
Fran Tarkenton
Otto Grahm
Joe Montana
Joe Theisman
Joe Namath

You've been right on so far, except don't mention Joe Namath with this group. I grew up idolizing him, but his career was short, his numbers not "great", more like average. His claim to fame was the Super Bowl guarantee, and he was truly a product of the NY media.

I'm not disputing that. But you're saying McNabb can't be great without making it to two or three SBs, Marino only made one so by that yardstick Marino was not a great QB. I'm not saying McNabb is great, just saying that's not an even yardstick.
