After former Broncos quarterback Brian Griese sprained his ankle and said he was tripped on the stairs of his home by his golden retriever, Bella: “The dog stood up on his hind legs and gave him a push? You might want to get rid of that dog, or put him in the circus, one of the two.” -

Greta may be stretching it be he did have at least a very good career. Retires as the 11th all-time passer ahead of such players as Jim Kelly, Johnny Unitas and Steve Young. He retires 29th in career TDs ahead of Phil Simms, Bob Griese, Joe Namath and Troy Aikman.Originally posted by Hammer View Post
Nobody is saying he's a Hall-of-Famer but let's not act as though he didn't do some things.Comment

205 TDs and 195 INTs.

True, but 11th in front of Steve Young is quite an achievement. I'd agree that he's not HOF material, but 16 years and 40,000+ yards with many teams with bad receiving corps is a heck of a career.Originally posted by Erik View Post
Even while battling the bottle, he was extremely active in charitable activities, some publicized and some not. I know for a fact during his Carolina years he'd randomly show up at hospitals and give away stuffed animals and autographed footballs to kids.I'm just here for the baseball.

Makes him a great guy. Still not a very good qb. He was a compiler. Never even a top 5 qb in a particular season.After former Broncos quarterback Brian Griese sprained his ankle and said he was tripped on the stairs of his home by his golden retriever, Bella: “The dog stood up on his hind legs and gave him a push?

I'd rather be a great guy than a great QB.
