Knew you would say Fran,Him being a Viking for his last 7 years.
Fran was a good QB In the 60's and early 70's,but not more deserving than anyone on the list In my opinion.
I could have put Boomer Esiason on the list.who was better than Fran Terkenton,but dont worry,If there were 12 options he would be 12th on the list.:wah:

Bart Starr.................... Hands Down

Greatest QB........?
From 1960-67, the Packers were 62-24-4 under Starr. The only playoff game Starr ever lost with the Packers was his first, the 1960 NFL Championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles. After that, Starr was a perfect 9-0 in postseason play.
Starr was the MVP in Super Bowls I and II, throwing for a combined 452 yards and three touchdowns against the Kansas City Chiefs and Oakland Raiders, respectively.
Ironically, the play Starr might be most famous for was a run.
In the 1967 NFL Championship game, better known as the 'Ice Bowl,' the Packers trailed the Dallas Cowboys 17-14 late in the fourth quarter. The Packers got the ball to the Dallas 1-yard line with less than a minute left, but the icy field conditions made it difficult to execute quick-hitting running plays.
During the Packers' final timeout, Starr suggested to Lombardi that he should just sneak the ball into the end zone instead of handing it off. Lombardi agreed and Starr called '35 wedge,' a running play designed to Chuck Mercein.
None of Starr's teammates expected him to keep the ball, but with 13 seconds left he pushed his way into the end zone for the winning touchdown in what remains arguably the most famous game in football history, played at Lambeau Field amidst a wind chill of 45-below.

At the time of his retirement, Fran owned every significant passing record – 3,686 pass completions, 47,003 passing yards, and 342 touchdowns. But particularly in his early years, Tarkenton attracted widespread attention as an exciting scrambler who took plays from sideline to sideline. Add his 3,674 yards rushing to his stunning passing totals and you have 50,677 yards – almost 29 miles or 500 football fields – of offensive progression. Yet Tarkenton was also a "quality" passer as his 80.4 passing rating that placed him in the upper echelon in that category demonstrates.
In Fran's final seven years with the Vikings (1972-1978), he led Minnesota to six NFC Central Division titles and three Super Bowl appearances. He was named first- or second-team All-NFL three times and selected to play in nine Pro Bowls during his career.

Oh come on Nomad,
47,003 yards are nothing compared to Dan Marino's 61,361 and 420 TD's,concidering that Fran played 4 more games than Marino.Fran played for 17 years,while Dan played for 16.I admit,back In the 60's and 70's they only played 14 games In a regular season,but Dan did miss 11 games In '93 for a total of 242,(with Fran starting 246) and still threw for 14,258 more yards.Fran Tarkenton never threw for over 3,000 yards In a season,except for his final year In '78,when they finally added the 2 extra games to the regular season for the 16 games we see today.His average completion rate Is 57%,not to mention his postseason stats are not good "at all",Throwing for no more than 219 yards/game.
Fran Tarkenton should not be on the list.However, I will say that he was a good QB for his time.

I was thinking about this today. Its a different game today than it was back then, its evolved. Even the players are different, their strengths, their physiques. I dont think Jim Brown could do today what he did in his day considering the strength training required of players today. Maybe he lifted some weights but watch him running down the field, hes a lumberjack. Sports medicine was different or unheard of way back, its just a different game. I think each decade it evolves into something else so its all relative.
