Nobody remembers that or cares, but they were great QBs.

Dan Marino played in a SB but never won. Still a great QB.

This 'measuring stick' of how many playoff games one wins is a joke, IMHO.

Trent Dilfer WON a SB. How many people will remember that or him?

Not many, because he wasn't a great QB.

Eli Manning won 2 SBs, both times as a WC team backing into the playoffs, and he is one of the most inconsistent QBs in the NFL.

Kenny Anderson said he can't understand why anyone would bash Dalton.  He said, concerning Dalton, "This kid is on his fifth year and will probably see his fifth playoff year, one more than I saw in 16 years!  You don't have any chance to win a SB UNLESS you make the playoffs."

Well said Bengalguy71.  Consistency is under appreciated.  Unless they completely falter AD will have made a playoff appearance 5 consecutive years in the NFL.  Not only that, his first 5 years in the NFL, the first year being during a strike with literally no offseason as a rookie.  Absolutely remarkable.  He is in very elite company in that regard.

I also want some playoff wins and a Super Bowl but not going to discount his accomplishments to this point.
