Johnny Unitas should be on the list. In fact, JU should be top 3. One of the GOAT, held that title for a long time. Montana over took his title and then Brady. I got to see him play many times growing up. He was truly a field general, fierce competitor, great leader, very smart (called most of the plays), had a Golden Arm and tough as nails. Great QB... Cheers.
When the NFL celebrated its first 50 years, Unitas was voted the league's best player.[59] Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame middle linebacker Ray Nitschke said of Unitas, "'What a tough guy and what a leader. He was the best I ever faced.'"[79] Retired Bears quarterback Sid Luckman said of Unitas, "He was better than me, better than Sammy Baugh, better than anyone."[80] Hall of fame player, and NFL coach, Raymond Berry said that what made Unitas unique "'was his uncanny instinct for calling the right play at the right time, his icy composure under fire, his fierce competitiveness and his utter disregard for his own safety."[81]
