7. How Did I Miss That?

I'd always put Marino up there.
His legs betrayed him ad he got older, not his arm.
I'd still be torn between Brady, Marino or Montana (in their primes) if I had to pick one QB for my team.
For Marino, I never saw a guy with a faster release until Lamar Jackson who also has an instant throwing motion.
I'm still salty about the Bears losing their only game (while scoring 24 points) because Ryan would not adjust the defense when the opponent had one of the best O-Lines in the NFL, with a QB with a lightning release, and 2 wide-outs who were super quick. Despite their legendary status, the defense ruined a perfect season. I guess Marino still scares me!
