You giving me your opinion of Buck Belue is like me giving an opinion of Fran Tarkenton's
playing day's @ UGA to someone who watched him play in person almost every game. I have no idea how good he was...I know his numbers were shite but I also know they won an SEC championship

Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl, and he was pretty much workmanlike-at-best. Middling talents can win titles on good teams.

Add in the fact that the game is very different now than then, and guys like Buck can probably best be summed up as "Good enough for their time." Which, to be fair, isn't a bad legacy. You can really only be compared with any accuracy to your peers, not to those who came well before or well after you.
