Top-3-QB trio for each franchise and who's #1?

As for picking #1, this is strictly how each QB played while they were with the particular franchise at-hand, not overall career if playing with multiple teams (ex. Bobby Layne strictly as a Lion, or strictly as a Steeler). Is Brodie/Montana/Young #1? Or is it Starr/Favre/Rodgers? How about Baugh/Jurgensen/Theismann? Staubach/Aikman/Romo? I guess Luck's newness (though recently surpassing Bert Jones) holds down he, Unitas, and Peyton from top-spot consideration.

I guess for KC it would actually be...Dawson, Trent Green, and (despite just two years onboard)...Joe Cool himself?
Back to Colts...when I said that Andrew Luck already surpassed Bert Jones, I guess I should have said Earl Morrall. In fact, shouldn't Jim Harbaugh be placed above Jones as well?
McMahon and Cutler alongside Sid, I suppose?
Of course not counting relatively recent expansion teams, what would some of the weakest top-3 trios be?

John's book takes a nice look at those three in parring down to a 53-player roster from the 1,261 who have played for Green Bay since 1950 (plus Don Hutson):

Tarkenton, Culpepper, Kramer. There were also a bunch of short term guys who played very well in purple; Kapp, Wilson, Moon, Johnson, Cunningham, George and Favre.

No Dilfer? He did "win a Super Bowl," as some would put it.
