Wow... Well, honestly Peyton was bad in the beginning of his career in the playoffs, but since then hes been pretty decent. Tom is only good cause he has a coach who can prepare his players well for that sort of thing. Anyways, if your talking about Unitas, he was a Baltimore Colt, not a Indianapolis Colts. I really don't think I even needed to respond to a child anyways.
Unitas is the greatest quarterback ever. My grandfather saw him play when he was young, the only time I have ever heard him cuss was when someone said another quarterback was greater.
I submit this as something to back up my claim, if your more into stats of course he wouldn't be the best but to consider the subjective, I think Unitas is untouchable.
So my rankings are,
1. Unitas
2. Montana
3. Elway
4. Sammy Baugh
5. Tarkenton
For QBs currently in the game in terms of total greatness
1. Drew Brees (lost his original job to the new kid and proved he is the worst mistake the chargers made [when they didn't resign him])
2. Randall Cunningham (he is a backup still right?, besides this was the original Michael Vick for the ~20's childhoods)
3. Brady (I wanted to rank Peyton higher since Brady always seems to be hurt and plays and yet takes a big hit and is done, but can't top 3 SBs on toughness alone)
4. Peyton
5. Tie- McNabb and Warner (McNabb and Warner are both wild cards, they have awful times and some of the most amazing times, if most consistent they would probably top the list).
