    I accept these terms only upon the condition that we acknowledge that Anderson ranks ahead of Stabler.

    Namath and Stabler played in the 1960s, when teams threw even less.

    If it'll keep us from having an SJ.com civil war, I can accept these terms.

    I'd put Anderson ahead of Stabler too.

    John Brodie and John Hadl deserve mention as well.

    I think Warner gets in at some point. Eventually, people will look at his peak years and the totality of what he did for the Rams and Cardinals instead of his weird mid-career slump and give him the green light. In any event, the "best not to get in" discussion should be limited to older guys like Stabler, Anderson and Simms who obviously are past their window for election.

    To go back to the earlier posts on this thread ... that's five dead SB-starting QBs, right? Stabler, Unitas, Morrall, Woodley, McNair?

    Not a bad trivia question.

    Little known fact: Billy Kilmer very nearly died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound while he was quarterback of the Saints ... but the bullet was intercepted.

    Bet the bullet wobbled through the air, too.
