Jaimoe Posted November 4, 2002 Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 He never won a Superbowl. That has to count for something, or everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSloth Posted November 4, 2002 Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 Tarkenton, Marino, Kelly - They are all the same to me. Big numbers and LOSERS. And dont quote the whole Marino didnt have a running back thing, if he played with a real running back that got 20+ carries a game during his career he never would have put up his gawdy numbers (though hed still probably have more than a few records). Just doing my part to stir the shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted November 4, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 Never winning a Super Bowl will always be the knock against Marino, however it doesnt lessen any of his accomplishments. I will use the fact that he never had a running game, also he never had much of a defense when playing either. He has put up numbers that obviously make him one of the best QB's ever. A lot of people would put someone like Joe Montana up there because of his Super Bowls and I wont argue that. He played on much better teams over all, but he did show extreme leadership. The sad thing about Marino never winning a Super Bowl is all the bums that have. Jeff Hostetler Doug Williams Trent Dilfer Phil Sims Mark Rypien just to name a few Guys who were never actually that talented but played in a great system and were there at the right place and time. As for Jim Kelly. If Marino had of played on those Bills teams they'd have at least 2 Super Bowls. Of course this is my biased opinion, but i'm sure it's 100% accurate. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted November 4, 2002 Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 Phil Simms was a capable if not above average quarterback. Also, he's a lot better than the QBs mentioned on your list; and, Phil is certainly more talented than his Texas Longhorns son Chris. If Miami had any one of a running game or better defense, they would have been one of the great Superbowl dynasties. Blame the management and scouts for their failure to draft decent position players around Marino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
