The Post requested its six soccer writers to rank their 10 greatest quarterbacks all time, after which tallied up the outcomes. Players obtained 10 factors for a first-place rating, 9 for a second-place rating and so forth.

Here are the tabulated outcomes, together with every author’s poll and his own rationalization:

The Post’s All-Time Great QB rankings

1. Tom Brady (56)

2. Joe Montana (50)

3. Patrick Mahomes (48)

4. Peyton Manning (35)

5. Johnny Unitas (33)

6. John Elway (22)

7. Dan Marino

8. Brett Favre

9. Aaron Rodgers

10. Drew Brees

The fascinating chase to watch is whether or not Mahomes will sometime overtake Brady as the best ever. If he and the Chiefs win Sunday, that’ll be 4 Super Bowl titles for Mahomes, which can nonetheless be three behind Brady’s seven. But Mahomes, at 29, figures to have lots more possibilities. The query is whether or not he’ll stay as pushed as Brady was into his 40s to take care of the chase.

10. Johnny Unitas

If Mahomes wins Sunday, I might transfer him to No. 2 on the listing. Graham is forgotten by many people, however look it up: He performed in 10 championship video games in 10 seasons and received seven of them. His average of 8.63 yards per go attempt stays an NFL document. I look for individuals who dominated their period and Graham owned his.

7. Dan Marino

8. Drew Brees 

9. Aaron Rodgers

10. Brett Favre

Mahomes is already No. 2, with the back half of his profession simply making an attempt to catch the gold normal. I put a premium on 5 classes: MVP; postseason success; sturdiness; touchdown-to-interception ratio; and altering how the sport is performed. That’s how you finish up with unique gunslinger Marino, however not four-time Super Bowl champion Terry Bradshaw, and with pioneer Unitas, however not comparatively short-lived Roger Staubach.

5. Otto Graham

6. John Elway

7. Peyton Manning

8. Brett Favre

9. Aaron Rodgers

10. Dan Marino

Mahomes is the solely energetic participant in my prime 10, and he actually is not fixed the place he is at No. 4. If he succeeds in an unprecedented three-peat for the Chiefs in Super Bowl 2025, transfer him up one spot. He has a methods to go to supplant Brady, however he is solely 29 and exhibits no signal of slowing down.

10. Roger Staubach

Super Bowl championships aren’t the be-all and end-all (see Dan Marino, don’t see Terry Bradshaw) until you win seven of them (Brady). Or you win 4 of them with 11 TDs with out an interception (Montana). A Mahomes three-peat pushes him to No. 2. Ask any old-timer about the management and greatness of Unitas and Graham.

I’m at all times on the lookout for recency bias, which is why I’m nonetheless not keen to slip Mahomes previous Montana, although the hour is drawing close to. It’s additionally why I want to make sure the world doesn’t overlook that the place wasn’t invented round 1985, so please don’t forget Staubach, Unitas, Bradshaw (and others simply off the listing).
