Who is the most underrated QB of all time?

I would go with Kenny Stabler. People forget that he was pretty good, a SB champion, and was part of many memorable plays (Sea of Hands, Ghost to the Post, etc.) Warren Moon takes second. When you add his statistics from the NFL and CFL, he threw for over 70,000 yards in his career. I also give a nod to Ken Anderson. He held the record for completion % in a season before Brees broke it last year, was an NFL MVP, and was the first QB to run Bill Walsh's West Coast Offense.

Warren Moon by far, he was so ahead of his time. Just a pity that teams didn't care about him because of skin color:(

[QUOTE="flowersjf"] I agree with this statement so much, I wish I got to see him play during his time and as an African-American I feel glad that he's in the HOF but he never gets recognition just like Doug Williams who won a SB against a John Elway led Broncos team. Jeff Garcia is pretty underrated too.

[QUOTE="flowersjf"][QUOTE="sixringz1"] To be fair Doug Williams wasn't even the starting qb for the skins, Jay Schroeder was. He started 2 games of the reg season that yr and that was it. Schroeder was banged up (although was healthy enough to play in the playoffs) at the end of the year, but Gibbs thought a healthy Williams was better than Schroeder at 80-85%, and he was right. If he was the starter the whole year, and had been a good qb prior to that, he would get more respect. But he was an avg qb his entier career before and after that yr. He falls into the Jeff Hostetller category. A backup qb who didn't play much all year, who went on a hell of a run, culminating in a super bowl. Nothing wrong with having that one year, or one postseason, to hang your hat on, but i think he gets the proper amount of credit. He gets the recognition for being the only black qb to win a SB, but he didn't have the type of career overall to warrant much else.

[QUOTE="monkeytoes61"][QUOTE="flowersjf"] That's true, way to correct my errors. I remember watching Americas Game on NFL Network talking about that Redskins team led by Doug Williams and how he was starting one week and benched the next because of Jay Schroders injuries and inconsistent play.sixringz1

[QUOTE="monkeytoes61"] I saw that he played well in relief of Schroder, but bad when he started. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-network-top-ten/09000d5d81113398/Top-Ten-QB-Controversies-Williams-vs-Schroeder

Aaron Rodgers and Phillip Rivers are NOT underrated.

I wouldve went with Drew Brees last year, but now that he got a super bowl ring, Brees is getting his credit.

I'm partial to Rich Gannon. I loved him as a Raider.Not-A-Stalker

I agree with you both. Moon was a beast! Also, good call on Jeff Garcia. He has been solid everywhere he has gone but keeps getting the shaft!

Bart Starr

[QUOTE="flowersjf"][QUOTE="sixringz1"] either way he wasn't the first string qb and that's the misconception. People think since he won the SB he was the primary qb the whole year and that's simply not the case

haha That's so true, they won another Super Bowl in 1991 as well with Mark Rypien at QB. haha Ive never seen a franchise play musical chairs at QB so well and still win Super Bowls.

Randall Cunningham

Trent Green. Although, most great Chiefs players are underrated.
