[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 379474, member: 1429"] Read my post. Postseason [B]performance[/B], not [B]success[/B]. Aikman has a 88.3 QB rating in the postseason, in a pass friendly era. Manning is 88.4. Marino is 77.1 Montana is 95.6, in a less friendly era. Bart Starr is 104.8. In the deadball era. Bart Starr won 5 titles, but was also named MVP of the SB both instances he participated. Montana has 3 SB MVPs. When in the most important games of their careers, they were the best players on the field, and made the difference to their teams. Aikman did win a SB MVP in a game he played close to perfect. But it was the only instance in his postseason career that he threw for more than 2 tds. Again, this in a pass-friendly era. It's all about HOW you do it. Obviously, we're talking about hall of famers in here, so these QBs were great. And you can't win multiple SBs without being an elite QB. But the most important player on that Cowboys team was Emmitt Smith. In fact, in the game Aikman was named MVP (against Buffallo), Smith carried the ball 30 times for 132 yards and 2 TDs. Another stat that shows Emmitt was the most important player on their team: Aikman NEVER threw for more than 18 TDs in a season. Again, this in the liveball era. When I talk about the best QBs of all time, I want a guy that elevated his game when he reached the playoffs. Montana did it. Starr did it. Rodgers does it. Favre, Marino, Manning, those guys played worse in the playoffs than in the regular season, and as a result they didn't win many SBs. Aikman is a distinct case, he maintained his play, which was average, but he was a great leader and a great game manager. A guy that is similar to Aikman is Matt Ryan, though Ryan has not played well in the playoffs... [/QUOTE]
