    Bradshaw would be there far ahead of Aikman and especially Theismann, so your comment is intriguing.

    You also failed to list any of the pre-1955 QBs, who certainly had to have a great deal of overall ability. Consider that Benny Friedman, Sammy Baugh, Arnie Herber, and Cecil Isbell all played with a ball that looked more like a watermelon than a football. All also had to play both sides of the ball, as did Sid Luckman and (in the AAFC) Otto Graham.
    Baugh, Luckman and Bradshaw in that order were the last one's I cut on my list.

    Starr
    Theisman
    Dawson
    Aikman
    Simms
    those guys are all good, but i find it odd that terry bradshaw is no where on that list
    I'll draft on who has best ability not who had the best supporting cast?
    did bradshaw have a good supporting cast? yes , but how good were they? when bradshaw was injured or left a game due to injury, the chances of beating the steelers went up dramatically. people act like any qb could have succeeded with that cast. i'm not buying that. i seen bradhsaws back up come in a do nothing with the same cast of players.

    IMHO Bradshaw was the 21th best QB to start a team with. I'll take 20 QBs ahead of him.
