The nature of competition is to find the best. In the NFL, the best team wins the Super Bowl. The best all-time team completes the Perfect Season. The best players are recognized by Pro Bowl and All-Pro selections. The best all-time players are immortalized with enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame (or are snubbed every year like Zach Thomas and Richmond Webb, but I digress).
Who is the best quarterback in the NFL? Aaron Rodgers? Tom Brady? Patrick Mahomes? Add in all-time greats like Dan Marino, Joe Montana, and Peyton Manning, and the debate only intensifies as people dig in on the wrong answer just because Marino never won a Super Bowl.
