Espn poll: Which organization had the greatest pair of quarterbacks?

Found the results interesting:

Which organization had the greatest pair of quarterbacks? - Sportsnation - ESPN

63% 49ers (Joe Montana and Steve Young)
25% Colts (Johnny Unitas and Peyton Manning)
12% Packers (Bart Starr and Brett Favre)

63% for montana and young? Yes Montana is the greatest qb of all time, but Young isn't on the same level with peyton manning or Johnny unitas. Also Unitas was great in an era without the current passing rules and advantages. Starr and Favre is a joke. Rodgers is already better than Favre ever was (yes i'm a homer).

 

This thread would be a dumpster fire on Volquest or TOOS.

 

People know more about the Niners' pair.

 

I think you hit the nail on the head. 90% of the people who voted probably know little to nothing about johnny u.

 

Ya, I think Indy is spot-on.

 

Another question: best set of QBs on the same team at the same time?

Montana and Young
or
Favre and Rodgers

Guess youve got to go with the Niners at this point in Rodgers's career.

 

Manning and Sorgi.

 

How on earth is Bart Starr one there? Staubach - Aikman?

 

Im with BPV, Staubach and Aikman >>>>>>>>>> Starr and Favre

 

Clearly it's Shuler and Frerotte, and there is no debating this, fools.

 

Bart Starr just won, a lot. (As a player, not coach.)

Hard to go against the Colts for this one.

 

I see your suckiness, and raise you a David Klingler and Akili Smith.

 

Bears not about to take this lying down. Cade McNown and Craig Krenzel up in this mutha.

 

Child please. I will buy lunch at Captain D's if you can find me a worse qb combo than Scott Mitchell and Akili Smith on the 2000 Cincinnati Bengals. You'll be astonished when you google that mess.

 

Only thing I can come up with is Marc Wilson and Tom Hodson, 1990 Pats.

 

That was pretty gross too. Though Steve Grogan was still on the team then.

 

Back to the original op question, how about Griese and Marino?

 

Good tandem. Phil Simms and Eli Manning, probably deserve an honorable mention.
