It might have made a slight difference if the poll were Super Bowl MVP or HOF.

WOnder how Larry Brown, Desmond Howard, Deion Branch, Santonio Holmes, Doug Williams, and Mark Rypien think?

That's a good way to put it. Every year you have 50+ Super Bowl rings issued and 4 to 7 HoF rings issued.

winning the Super Bowl gets you in the Hall a hell of a lot easier.

He couldn't ever make any of them throws so I don't know why he shows them off?

Get over it Dilfraud.

"Mr. Marino, would you trade your career for Jason Garrett's?"

I'd want to be the first third stringer in the Hall.

Reach for the stars, man.

There's no HOF in TEAM.

There's no H. There's an A. No Ls. No Os or Fs, nor Fs again. There is an A, an M and an E.

So no HOF in TEAM, but 3/4 of TEAM is in HALL OF FAME, which seems like too many guys, really.

Come to think of it, there's not much SUPER BOWL in TEAM either.

Hall of Fame, and it's not even close.

If I was a 1st stringer I think I'd rather have the Super Bowl win. Being part of that would be awesome.

If it was between say, a SB win as a 3rd stringer or a HOF career, I'd go with the HOF.

This,

I've always hated the "Dan Marino sucks cause he never won the Super Bowl" arguement. Like I've hated the "Jim Kelly is a better QB than Marino because of the rings" or any QB because of the rings, arguements.

It is a team game, the best player at any position could win nothing if the team doesn't win. I hate team accolades contributing to individual awards. It should be nothing but a separator from similar stats, not the first gauge in measuring success.

Case in point, Brady won more SBs (not lately) but if you think Brady is a better QB than Payton, you're a slave to peter king and/or espn. If you think elway or Kelly were better QBs than Marino, your and idiot.

If you watched Jim Kelly play and thought he was a better QB than Marino Aikman or Elway then I don't care to hear your football takes.

Brady was and is better than Payed-a-Ton because in big games he was clutch. When his team needed pts to win he drove his team down the field and got them.

Payed-a-ton not only lost big games but many were lost because of him and his poor play.

Kelly and Manning are more similar than you'd like to think...

Respectfully disagree. I've seen both play, Kelly was more product of offense in a run oriented era, manning is an OC on the field. If manning had Thurman Thomas and that O omg with the bills D, he would have been crowned god.

It's a team game. Should have more weight in deciding greatness than just stats or rings.
