Here are the "Dirty Dozen" who are in the running, in my estimation:

- Joe Kapp

- Earl Morrall

- Craig Morton

- Vince Ferragamo

- David Woodley

- Tony Eason

- Jeff Hostetler

- Stan Humphries

- Chris Chandler

- Trent Dilfer

- Brad Johnson

- Rex Grossman

Obviously, some of these guys aren't THAT bad, and some are well below average. But sometimes you watch Grossman and he looks like the worst QB you've ever seen. Like Heath Shuler bad. Jonathan Quinn bad.

Rex isn't nearly as bad as David Woodley.

You need to add Big Ben to your list.

 

[drdgreenlove]

Hostetler was money the Super Bowl year so I think he doesnt belong on the list

Brad Johnson has had a OK career but not as bad as most of that list

The winner is........ Dilfer (post-1980 at least)

 

[Dentist]

Grossman makes Dilfer look like a pro-bowler

 

[Raider Nation]

Hostetler was money the Super Bowl year so I think he doesnt belong on the list

Hoss was the only name I typed where I paused a bit. His legs really helped the G-Men to that Super Bowl, but the fact is that he was a backup to that point in his career, so I decided to reluctantly include him.

Rex >>>>>>>> WoodleyRex >>> Humphries, Eason and Joe Kapp

Career-wise I think Rex ends up way better than all of those guys.

 

[greenroom]

what about Doug Williams (Was)?

 

[Raider Nation]

what about Doug Williams (Was)?

Williams was THE reason the Skins beat the Broncos in Super Bowl XXII. Go watch a DVD of that game, and fast forward to the 2nd Q. That Super Bowl aside, he had a fine career, beginning with Tampa Bay.

 

[NJ OAK]

No, never. Nor has there ever been a worse TEAM in the SB. I've never been so disappointed about the outcome of a game. The Bears have NO shot to win in 2 weeks. NO SHOT. I'm not sure I'll even watch the game.

And I'll add that I'm a Cowboy fan, no allegiance to the Saints at all, but I'm smart enough to know that they would at least have been able to give the AFC opponent a game.

 

[anguskahn]

You probably should re-write the question.

In the headline you have "Has there been a worse starting QB than Grossman?"

In your poll you have "Is Rex the worst Super Bowl QB ever?"

If somebody answers definitely are they answering that there has indeed been a worse starting QB or are they answering that Rex is the worst?

Rex isn't nearly as bad as David Woodley.

This is the correct answer, and I think by far.

 

[Widbil83]

Haters.

The poll question is all that matters. I'm confident that everyone can figure that out.

 

[anguskahn]

I think that Joe Thiesmanitis is getting to people. Someone doesnt always have to be the "best ever" or "worst ever".

Rex is a mediocre and inconsistent QB. He is not a terrible QB.

I think many people will read the title and then click their choice without reading the question in the poll text. I think that your results will be questionable.

It's obvious that Aikman can't stand him either if you listen to his comments during the games he's called for the pathetic Bears.

They wouldve given the AFC opponent a game, even though they really couldnt give the awful Bears a game?Are you high?

No, I wish. I have a real job. I know that the Bears away from home will not do well. The Saints have proven that they can perform well on the road (e.g., crushing Dallas and NYG). Rex will be lost and clueless against the AFC opponent on a neutral field. It WILL be ugly. I guess I just yearn for the times when football had dynasties. And I don't mean the Patriots. To consider them anything other than mediocre is ludicrous. Free agency has killed this game.

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Does "Definitely" mean that Rex is good or that Rex is bad? The question in the thread title is the opposite of the question in the poll title.

Fair enough.Subtitle edited to mesh with poll question.

 

[MDSkinner]

I think a better poll would have been "has there ever been a more inconsistent QB than Rex"? I say that because he is not a horribly QB, he is a QB who plays either spectactular football or god awful football. I would not say that makes him the worst ever to make the Super Bowl, just the least consistent. Rex is a Roller Coaster ride.

I don't know if I have ever read a post on these boards that had this many incorrect statements. I would offer a rebuttal but I have some things to do in 2007.

Buy better dope ... you are dilusional

 

[Tough As Nails]

Can we let the guy have a career longer than 20 starts before we call him the best of worst of anything?

 

[Raider Nation]

I voted Definitely before the poll question was reversed.

I never changed the poll question. I edited the title. Haste makes waste. Read before you vote.

 

[Statorama]

When Rex Grossman is out of the league in three years, the answer will be obvious.

 

[GRIDIRON ASSASSIN]

I think Rex can more than match Ben Roethelsberger's performance from last year.

9 for 21 for 123 yards with a 22.6 QB rating.

 

[GRIDIRON ASSASSIN]

...and Bob Griese definitely deserves to be mentioned. That guy is SOOOOOO overrated. He should be taken out of the Hall of Fame also.

 

[RedRaiders]

How did Kerry Collins not make this poll? He was much worst then Dilfer and Brad Johnson in those seasons and then really stunk it up in the superbowl against the Ravens.

I'm not sure any of those QBs were 4/17 for 54 yards in the 4th quarter of their championship game though.

 

[NJ OAK]

OK, honest question...Who can root for Rex Grossman?

 

[ericttspikes]

Has anybody who voted him the worst ever seen him play? I mean, yeah, he threw some clunker games, but in these playoffs he's made some HUGE plays. That TD to Berrian and late toss to Davis vs. Seattle were impressive. I was really impressed today when he threw the ball away instead of focing it several times. The guy is short, not very athletic but plays like winner and can actually make some great throws. Maybe he'll flame out, or maybe he'll put it together and have a decent NFL career. He's far too young to make the call now. He's also playing better than any Bears QB in recent memory...not that that's saying a lot.

Career-wise I think Rex ends up way better than all of those guys.

In the year Humphries leads the Chargers to the Superbowl his QB rating was 81.6. For this year Rex is at 73.9. Not sure Rex is the worst, but the worst certainly isn't Humphries.

 

[BassNBrew]

May have been briefly, but now that Manning is in the big game Grossman isn't the worst.

[FreeBaGeL]

262-480 for 3193yds with 23 TDs and 20 INTs in his first full year as a starter.

Yes, Grossman is the worst QB to ever play in the Super Bowl in your lifetime...if you're one year old. And judging by some of the posts I've seen here and some of the votes that have been made, it wouldn't surprise me if most in this thread are indeed of that age.

 

[DeCleater]

Brady

Manning

Brees

Grossman

Which QB did NOT throw an interception today.

Grossman did what he was supposed to do today, not turn it over.

 

[super sleeper]

Seems like any list that doesn't include Jim Plunkett and is created by "Raidernation" would not be very credible

Nothing suprises me with this board anymore. Good Post though!

 

[destro]

I love this. He's performed better in the playoffs than Manning and Brady, and yet he's the worst SB QB ever.

He's had 4-5 bad games this season, sure. Beyond that? He's had an amazing year. And this is his first full season. Let's get over it, folks.

 

[Jagerbomber]

He hasn't been put in the position to have to throw as much as the other 2 players. Plus let me remind you that the Saints and the Seahawks defenses are pretty average compared to what Brady and Manning have faced. If Grossman has to bring them back from a huge decificit, they're toast. Nah, they're scrambleThat being said, no he isn't the worst QB to start in the big game by a long shot. But he's still young

 

[Capella]

I love this. He's performed better in the playoffs than Manning and Brady, and yet he's the worst SB QB ever.

11-26 for a 144 yards is better than what Manning Brady put on today?Really?

Grossman is horrible. ANY of the other 31 starting QBs in the league (and likely about half of the 2nd-stringers) would also have led the Bears to the Super Bowl if they played the full season with them, including training camp. My dead grandmother could have hit the WIDE OPEN Clark on that play-action pass from the 3 yard line that he sailed into the fifth row.

He makes horrific decisions, and he makes some brutal, head-scratching, awful throws. Chicago is in the Super Bowl in spite of Grossman.... not because of him. And I don't want to be misinterpreted here. I like the Bears. I think they have a lot of heart, and it's good to see such a great, storied franchise have success again. But if you think that Grossman is anything more than a marginal starting QB (and "marginal" is being kind, I assure you), you are sadly mistaken.

 

[Jagerbomber]

11-26 for a 144 yards is better than what Manning Brady put on today?Really?

I think he meant the whole playoffs. Today he wasn't better than Brady or Manning.Actually he did throw 26 times today which isn't a lot but I suppose it's not a little. And he connected 11 times.

I was being sarcastic. Like I said in a previous post, if Rexie had to play against the defenses that Manning and Brady had to play against, well, yea...you know where this is going.

 

[kevjones22]

Is this the first super bowl ever where the best qb in the NFL is playing the worst qb in the NFL?
