Popularity = Name Recognition

Peyton and Tebow are at the top and are far ahead of everyone else.

SEC HISTORY?

You mean compared to Kenny Stabler, Joe Namath, Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Bart Starr, Fran Tarkenton, Y.A. Tittle, George Blanda, Tim Tebow, Danny Wuerfel, Cam Newton?

I don't think Manziel makes the top 10.

Most popular QBs, in no particular order:
Steve Spurrier
Joe Namath
Pat Sullivan
Archie Manning
Peyton Manning
Eli Manning
Tim Couch
Danny Wuerfel
Tim Tebow

Although, "most popular" is a somewhat ambiguous term. Most popular as in "most well-known" or "most well received"? Cam Newton and Manziel were both well known but not well received.

For us older folks it could possibly be Joe Willie Namath.
His combination of success and flamboyance made him very popular in his time

Bo Jackson could probably be added to the "most well known" list. His career was short lived, but his name is known by most.

If popularity = name recognition then Hitler must be one of the most popular people in history.

Tebow wins in a landslide.

He’s also not the most hated cuz Cam Newton exists.

Most respected might go to Tua. The guy is putting up stats that Case Keenum is envious of and he couldn’t be more humble and likable.

I want to hate him SOOO bad but I can’t. The dude is a class act.

I think at the time he was universally disliked but now most everyone just feels sorry for him. Kind of like the rest of the aggies

Tebow and it isn't even close.



Well, it wasn't close until this year. Somebody is giving Timmy a run for his money now.
Merika's qb
