The Drill: The Paolantonio Report
Reporter says Favre is overrated
Posted: Nov. 25, 2007
ESPN's Sal Paolantonio is the author of the new book, "The Paolantonio Report: The Most Overrated and Underrated Players, Teams, Coaches & Moments in NFL History." Here are his five most overrated quarterbacks of all-time:1. Joe Namath: His legend has much more to do with his Super Bowl III performance and his prolific off-field antics than his career stats.
2. Brett Favre: His image in the media has been hyperinflated to the good ol' boy routine, and that's why people like him.
3. Terry Bradshaw: He was ultimately an average quarterback who was surrounded by the greatest cast of talent ever assembled on one NFL roster, including eight Hall of Fame players.
4. Ken Stabler: His only accomplishment was winning the 1976 Super Bowl where the Raiders mostly ran and the defense stifled Fran Tarkenton.
5. Tony Romo: He barely made the team, and after one season of play he became a full-fledged superstar without really accomplishing anything to deserve it.

He may be certifiable, but four super bowl rings, and the Hall of Fame.
And the Raiders, well awful is putting it lightly.
