Stafford has been in the nfl for 16 years...doesn't really seem that long. Best Ga qb in the nfl?

Stetson is the best UGA qb in the NFL, Stafford is the best NFL qb that happened to play at UGA.

Bennett has the two titles but if you put Aaron Murray on those two teams, no team comes within 3 TDs of them during that two year run

Stafford is the best Georgia QB ever in the NFL.
Fran Tarkenton is #2.

Has to be tarkenton or Stafford, not really any other options for debate.

For best UGA qb, Idk who exactly it is, but one of these, I'd reckon (in no order): Zeier, Murray, Tarkenton, Stafford, Bratkowski, Bennett.
Best NFL career is Tark or Stafford.

You have to define what you mean by 'best'?
Stafford - Most successful in the pros
Murray - Has all the records
Bennett - Has all the hardware and rings

9x Pro Bowl vs 2x Pro Bowl....

Give me Tarkenton every time.

No to mention he held about every career passing record when he reitired and continued to hold most of them until Marino broke most of them more than 20 years later.

I was shocked when they said it as 16 seasons for stafford on SNF. Pretty damn impressive career.

Plus Tark was on That’s Incredible in the early 80s. Gen Xers will remember that show.

If I remember right, she was pretty hot. I was in elementary school, so I can’t remember exactly what she looked like, but I remember she was a blonde. I figured John Davidson would have been the one who boned her.
