Manning looks for Tracy Porter as he tries to win a 2nd SB with a 2nd team.
The past three days, Football Perspective has looked at the best quarterbacks in NFL history. On Wednesday, I explained the methodology for grading each quarterback in each season. Thursday, I came up with an all-time career list of the best quarterbacks based on their regular season play. Yesterday, I presented the data on playoff performances.

Great story. I remember reading about O'Brien in a children's football book, and of course his namesake award. So much that's hard to imagine today, first of all, a 5'7" QB...
