Here is an interesting program from NFL Films that covers many of whom they consider to be the greatest qb's of all-time. It's interesting as they do cover a lot of pre Super Bowl era qb's and show some footage that I had never seen before. The program was made back in '98 so it obviously will be a little out of date as it won't even mention players like Peyton Manning or Tom Brady.

Thanks for this. Never saw it before. I'm enjoying it. A few of them surprised me and I liked some of the "what ifs" like what if Conerly and the Giants had won the game in 58. Interesting that they jump around rather than just count from 50 down to 1.

I think I got that DVD out of a box of cereal, or something like that, about 15 years ago.

I watched several minutes and will probably go back.
But there was at least one error in the first few minutes.

The play showing Steve Young diving in for (as described in the voice over) a "game winning touchdown" was against the Eagles in 1994, a game the Niners lost 8-40 with their sole score coming on said Steve Young run.

Kind of disheartening to see an error in an NFL films history show so early on.
Who reviews these things before they go live??

At the 21:12 mark the graphic says Ron Jaworski was the 1980 NFL MVP.
