[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 372518, member: 1429"] Being 3rd compared to the QBs in his class. He still was below 90's in QB rating. I know, different eras, but it's still not the same. And, yes, it's important, because Starr, regardless of era, still had the best postseason QB rating, in the 100's, and for 10 games! Not of his era, of all time! And for Young, Marino, not even close. Young actually had 4 consecutive 100+ ratings seasons, in his first 4 seasons as a starter for the 49ers (yes, in his 30's, but we're not talking about 3 first years in the league, 3 first years as a starter, regardless of how that happened) Marino only had 1 100+ rating season in his whole career. Not even close. And I've already said that All Pro is gibberish. Take 97 for an example. Favre was named the All Pro QB. Okay, right? Favre in 97: 3867 yards, 35 TDs, 16 INTs, 59.3% completion, 7.5 YPA, 92.6 rating. GB went 13-3 Young in 97: 3029 yards, 19 Tds, 6 INTS, 67.5% completion, 8.5 YPA, 104.7 rating. And he missed a game. His team went 12-3 with him. Yet Favre was voted to the All Pro. Why? Because he put up more yards and TDs, which is all that matters for voters. Young had a much better, much more efficient season. And he wasn't dinking and dunking. His YPA (IMHO the second most important stat for a QB) was a great 8.5, which means he was completing long passes. And, still, this is only about regular season. I'm including postseason when talking about the best 3 years of starting. And I've already said how Graham fared in that regard. [/QUOTE]
