Where do you have Roger Staubach rated in your all-time NFL QB list?

Where do you have Roger Staubach rated in your all-time NFL QB list? I was glad to see he was among the 10 QBs chosen for the NFL's 100th anniversary team, but I think fans either didn't see him play or he's underrated in their thinking.
6th after Montana/Graham/Unitas/Starr/Brady.
 
The choker Marino doesn't compare well to Brees either.

Correct. Marino is way above Brees.
 
Joe Montana and Roger Staubach were legendary for the belief by their team mates that if they kept the game close, they would find a way to win it.

Time will tell if Mahomes gets the same legend.

For the two minute got to have a TD, they are one and one A in the history of the NFL.

So by that alone, both deserve to be in the top 10.

Leaving Cowboy sentiment out of it, I would say my top 5 QBs of all time have to include Brady. Then Roger and Joe; after that you could get one hell of an argument. I would be willing at this time to put Mahomes in it as his record is now. Time will tell if he can keep it up.
Yeah, I'm waiting a bit longer, but Mahomes is easily in the top 10 already.
 
He’s definitely top 20, probably top 15. Where he ends up will have a lot to do without how you view pre-SB era QBs: YA Tittle, Otto Graham, Sammy Baugh who all probably deserve to be top 10 alltime. But how do you compare eras? Best to just say SB era.

I have my top 7 pretty cemented, but
Is Staubach over Brees? Is Staubach over Rodgers?

My list I think would be….

1. Brady
2. Manning
3. Montana
4. Marino
5. Mahomes
6. Rodgers
7. Unitas
8. Elway
9. Young
10. Staubach

Am I missing anyone? Aikman and Bradshaw and Roethlisberger and Starr had a million rings but they weren’t the kind of QB these guys were. Tarkenton is good shout out, but I believe Young and Staubach were better. So until Lamar/Burrow/Allen build incumbency, Roger Dodger was a top 10 alltime QB.
Although I wouldn't have put Rodgers anywhere near that high, good list.

Missing: Graham, Starr, maybe Fouts.
 
You look up what Otto Graham did in the 50's and his stats were not matched for nearly 20 years.
Starr was his generations Brady

There's actually a 5 way tie for first for goat: Montana, Unitas, Starr, Graham, Brady.

I would put Unitas last on that list; he did bring the deep ball to the NFL but only really one ring. The second one was gifted to him by the phantom fumble recovery

I would go Montana and Brady one and one A
Then Starr and Graham tied for 2
Unitas 3
Roger right after

How far down is Dan Fouts..?
 
Staubach would carve up today's competition. He'd be Mahomes like because he could move around too. He had to face teams with tenacious defenses week in week out. For me, Roger has to to top 5. In any era. Brady is 1. Roger won rings at a time when it may have been tougher. He should have won 4.

Incumbency is important. Like Kurt Warner won 2 MVPs but he only had maybe 5 legit HoF seasons. Lamar isn’t yet where Kurt was due to the playoff success, so all he can do to climb the list is incumbency
