Favre is the most "winningest" QB in the Past 3 years. Its not even close.

Jay didnt play in 5 games last year or 1 game in 2000, which brought down the team winning percentage.

Brett Favre: 9-7, 12-4, 12-4, winning %=68.75

Jay Fiedler: 10-5, 11-5, 7-4, winning %=66.67

Thats a difference of one more win, so don't go sounding like its proposterous that Fiedler has won as much a Favre. You make it sound like Fiedler is a piece of garbage. Whether you want to admit it or not, Fiedler is a winner on the field. If Favre is such a God to you, and Fielder is only one win behind him, then what does that make him?

nicely done Ross

The real numbers

 

Fiedler:

2000 - 11-6

2001 - 11-5

2002 - 7-3

 

Total = 29-14 = 67% Win %

 

Favre:

2000 - 9-7

2001 - 12-4

2002 - 12-4

Total = 33-15 = 68.75% Win %

 

Brady

2000 - 0-0

2001 - 11-2

2002 - 9-7

Total = 20-9 = 68.97% Win %

 

Tommy Maddux [you'll love this!]

2000 - out of football

2001 - 0-0

2002 - 7-3

Total = 7-3 = 70% Win %

 

Just the facts. :thumbup

I think Joe Montana is teh best ever.

The real numbers

 

Fiedler:

2000 - 12-6

2001 - 11-5

2002 - 9-7

 

Total = 32-18 = 64% Win %

Not that it really matters, but those numbers are off. 12-6 in 2000? there are not even that many games. jay missed 1 game that year, so his record was 10-5. in 2002, the team went 9-7, but 2-3 in the games Jay missed, so his record was 7-4. the records I put up were correct.

he was counting playoff games in 2000, which doesnt make sense because he didnt add the playoff loss from 2001. but like you pointed out, he counted games that he didnt play in.

Nobody can make a strong argument against that "Montana Magic."

 

It's hard for me to decide between Montana and Elway b/c I grew up a Giants fan.

 

I just revel in the fact that I watched Phil Simms beat them both... One for the NFC Championship and the other in the Superbowl :mischief

 

But hot damn - you could NEVER count out the 49ers with Joe Montana behind center. 31 fourth quarter come-from-behind wins, including a 92-yard drive in the closing seconds of Super Bowl XXIII? That's insane... You can't coach that...

The real numbers

 

Fiedler:

2000 - 12-6

2001 - 11-5

2002 - 9-7

 

Total = 32-18 = 64% Win %

Not that it really matters, but those numbers are off. 12-6 in 2000? there are not even that many games. jay missed 1 game that year, so his record was 10-5. in 2002, the team went 9-7, but 2-3 in the games Jay missed, so his record was 7-4. the records I put up were correct. My mistake - I missed out on the 2002 numbers. I was counting instead of looking at starts - as I did in the rest of the numbers.

 

I also corrected for 1 game in 2000 - 11-6 not 12-6. I accidentally gave him credit for somebody else's win.

 

I made an error that resulted in adding 3% points to Fiedler's numbers - still short of the others mentioned.

The post above has been edited to reflect my errors and the changes mentioned above. And, as Ross pointed out, this results in a difference of two wins between Fiedler and Favre. However, as alluded to by the Brady and Maddux numbers, Favre has played in 5 more games [12% more] which means Fiedler's numbers are impacted greater by each win or loss. If he LOSES those 2 games, he'll be back down to 64%.

One win? Where do you get that? Its 2. I know big difference. But still, "a win is a win is a win."

 

And Fiedler is a decent QB. Not a piece of garbage. But he is in comparison to Favre. Feidler is good enough to be our 2nd stringer. But I look for Griese to start anyways for you guys. And well Tommy Maddux- that doesn't really count. He never played a full season the past 3 years. And the playoffs, when you look in the record books you wont see--- 13-5, or 12-5. Because they only count regular season into WP, dont ask why. I think playoffs should count also.

Feidler is good enough to be our 2nd stringer.

Fiedler is good enough to be anyones back-up QB. If there is one quality a team likes in a back-up QB, it's that he wins games...

i think it is funny that in this thread everyone was saying how great fiedler was and now most of them are saying he sucks.

Dan Marino.

 

No disrespect to Clayton or Duper, but they are no Jerry Rice.

Dan The Mizzann Marino

 

Hands Down.

dan the freakin man marino

I picked elway. i dont know why.

 

though this vote might be a little tighter in a say titans forum.

What no Jim Drukenmiller?

 

*votes for joe montana*

Well just because Dan never won a ring dosent mean he was not as good as Montana or whomever is on that list. Winning a superbowl is a team effort not a single man's accomplishment. The Bucs just won a SB with Johnson the Ravens did it with Dilfer. None of these two guys compare to Dan. Marino never had a good RB to help him win a ring. I know winning a SB is important but put that fact away and he was the greatest.

Yes it's a team effort but The QB is the one who leads that team and is the one you trust to win that game.

 

Look at Jay he is surrouned by possibly The Best team in The NFL but...

 

Why don't they win?

 

It's not because they don't mix it's because The Guy who leads them stinks!

 

Try to complain as you may but The QB is measured on his wins not his stats because those stats are empty if they don'y accomplish anything...

One of the league worst oline and no WR that can produce beside Chambers.Not to mention a running game that average 3.5 yards per carry which was good for 30th in the league.

 

Second

 

Why Bob Griese even in this poll?He was nothing special..

 

Dan Marino is the greatest QB to play his position.You can bring up all you want about not winning the ring but there no other QB that I'll take over him in his prime.

Joe Montana.
