Estamos na época do ano mais parada da NFL e para surprir a falta de futebol americano em nossas vidas, é sempre legar fazer rankings para motivar o debate. Pensando nisso a ESPN americana elaborou uma lista muito interessante que mostra o raking dos maiores franchises quarterbacks de cada time.

Alguns casos como o New England Patriots são bem fáceis de saber quem será votado em primeiro lugar, mas em outros times a história fica mais complicada. Podemos usar o Miami Dolphins como exemplo, já que a franquia ganhou Super Bowls, mas o maior franchise QB de sua história é Dan Marino, lembrado por ter quebrado vários recordes enquanto estava em campo e por nunca ter ganhado o Troféu Lombardi.

Em outras franquias o debate acontece justamente por elas nunca terem ganhado o Super Bowl, então os quarterbacks precisam ser escolhidos sem ter essa diferença entre eles.

A ESPN fez duas listas: uma dos joranlistas dos sites "NFL Nation", e outra dos Fãs. Vamos aos nomes e vamos ver se vocês gostam dos rankings.
