Dan Marino is considered to be one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever step on the gridiron. So, while speaking with Sports Illustrated ahead of Super Bowl LVIII, the Pro Football Hall of Famer discussed some of his peers and named who he believes are the all-time greats under center.
When asked to give his Mount Rushmore of quarterbacks—or, in other words, the four greatest QBs in NFL history—the former Miami Dolphins signal-caller cheated just a bit while giving his former rivals some praise.
“To me, [Joe] Montana and [John] Elway, Jim Kelly—those guys, all those guys,” Marino said.
Marino refused to name himself as the fourth person on the list, explaining that someone else is going to have to put him there. He did admit he felt that he could compete with those quarterbacks, though.
For the fourth and final Mount Rushmore spot, Marino offered two names.
“Patrick Mahomes, he’s going to be considered one of the best ever, too,” Marino continued. “You got Tom Brady, you got a lot of guys. So, there’s a lot to pick from there.”
Montana, Elway, Kelly and Mahomes or Brady. That’s not a bad monument of quarterbacks.
