46. I'll take it
Edited on Tue Jan-26-10 01:02 PM by JonLP24
Manning-%64.8, 50,128 yards, 366 TD-181 INT, 7.7 YPA

Joe Montana-63.2, 40,551 yards, 273 TD-139 INT, 7.5 YPA(Manning tops these numbers)

Johnny Unitas-54.7 40,239 yards, 290 TD-253 INT, 7.8 YPA(Manning has the better completion percentage and TD-INT ratio but Johnny's YPA is very impressive considering the completion percentage.)

(This is a joke)Terry Bradshaw-51.9%, 212 TD-210 INT, 7.2 YPA(Manning tops these easily, you would have been better off listing Otto Graham, Steve Young, Bart Starr, many others)

Roger Staubach-57%, 22,700 yards, 153 TD, 109 INT, 7.1 YPA(Manning, easily)

Dan Marino-59.4%, 61,361 yards, 420 TD, 252 INT, 7.3 YPA(Manning wins why? Marino has 1,827 more pass attempts which explains the more yards and TD's and Manning still has some years left. If you take Manning's 7.7(if he continues at that pace) and times it with Marino's career pass attempts-(8,358)-it comes out to 64,357 yards. I'm sure he's on pass to pass Dan's career TD totals as well. You can make a strong case for Marino for sure but you gotta figure the better completion percentage and better yards per pass attempt)
