Rain Man ... stats are your game for sure. You enjoy what you're doing if it makes you feel better, the bulk of us saw the games. If you want to rank him up there with guys like Jim Everett - you have fun, buddy.

It's too silly for me to get caught up with it to be quite honest with you. You have a great skill for the spin. One thing that is funny is how you say his stats got better when he was surrounded by better players, suggesting that he no longer had to be the man or the best player on the team.

How about all those wins? Very consistent throughout his career... whether he was surrounded by "ok talent" or "great talent". Obviously the personal stats improve when you have better players around you.

Look how Marino's stats dropped later in his career, during the last 7-8 years. Marino didn't improve with age. No, as the team became a bit void of talent... and entering a more 'pass friendly era' in the NFL, Marino became less prolific... while Elway became more prolific.

Interesting when you peel back that onion.
