to NOT win the Superbowl.

Thinking about Dak and the possibility that he may never win a Super Bowl, who are the greatest QB's to never win one?

My nominees are:

Dan Marino (Being a Dolphin"s fan, he's number one on my list)
Jim Kelly
Fran Tarkenton
Warren Moon

Other names I considered were Phillip Rivers, Steve McNair, Donovan McNabb, and Dan Fouts.

Who you got?

lets do an addendum. QB never to get to the SB
Danny White and Don Meredith.
Dan Fouts
and the GOAT Sonny FING Jurgeson.

The frame of reference on Great NFL QB has become so skewed in my lifetime.
Matt Ryan is #9 all time in Passing Yards, and #10 in Passing TD's - that just boggles my mind.
So, I guess he has to be on that list???

You just triggered my PTSD from their last Super Bowl appearance.

I would say Marino is the best on that particular category for sure.

Jim Kelly is up there.

I always liked Randall Cunningham. He came awfully close with the Vikings.

Phillip Rivers was really good too.

Rich Gannon. If it wasn't for a fluke rule he would've been the Super Bowl Winner not GOAT/

Non Champions - your list is great

Alternate Universe:

Dan Marino as a Chicago Bear from 1983 to 1999, would have won 4 Super Bowls. Not his fault Miami Dolphins team sucked. But the Bears drafted a Hall of Famer in 1983, Jimbo Covert was a great, great player.

Jim Kelly as a New York Giant would have won 3 super bowls. Phil Simms sucked. Kid was garbage.

Vick was great. Bears should have traded 4 first-round picks to move up in the draft. It's not like the Bears Organization know how to draft anyway.Given Atlanta the sears tower for Vick.

With no room for dog fights in a Chicago high rise, he would be at 3 or 5 Super Bowl championships. He would rank higher than Jordan among Chicago fans.
