The quarterback position is one of the hardest, most glorified and scrutinized positions in sports.

Over the history of the game of football, we’ve seen many, many quarterbacks take snaps under center (and in the shotgun) and while some have done okay, and others have failed, there were those very few who shined throughout their career, making every time we watch them play that much more special.  It’s not often you get to watch someone great live.

Those who watched quarterbacks like Jim Kelly in the 80’s and early 90’s, or other guys like Warren Moon, Troy Aikman, Steve Young during their playing days knew that they were watching something special and they were right when they were all enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.

But who’s the best of the best?  There are some of the all-time greats who haven’t been inducted as well as those who are already in Canton.

Let’s take a look at the Top 10 quarterbacks of All-Time.
