8. Steve Young

While it took a while for Young to win over the hearts of some Montana die-hards in the Bay Area, he more than delivered when it became his team. He was a two-time MVP, as well as a seven-time Pro Bowler and led the 49ers to a victory over the Chargers in Super Bowl XXIX.

9. Drew Brees

Brees is one of the most accomplished quarterbacks of all time. He is the NFL’s second all-time leading passer, and retired with 571 career touchdown passes. He was selected to 13 Pro Bowls throughout his career, and will undoubtedly be a first-ballot Hall of Famer.

10. Fran Tarkenton

Tarkenton is a pioneer of the mobile quarterback. He was the first guy to consistently run and extend plays with his legs. He led the Vikings to multiple Super Bowls throughout his career, and was named NFL MVP in 1975. The nine-time Pro Bowler was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1986.

11. Larry Fitzgerald

They say “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” Well, Larry Fitzgerald was given lemons that had gone bad in terms of the quarterbacks he played with in his career. In spite of all that, Fitzgerald is the NFL’s second all-time leading, and never saw his production take a huge hit even as he slid into the twilight of his career. He is one of the best receivers of all time and will be a Hall of Famer.
