A lot of them said you don’t need an all time great at QB to win it all so I looked it up.Counting Rodgers, Brees, Mahomes, and Brady as HOFers, 40 of 58 Super Bowls have been won by Hall of Fame QB’s.The only other two time SB winning QB not to make it to the Hall of Fame is Jim Plunkett. If Eli Manning and Big Ben get in, that‘s 44 out of 58 Super Bowls, or 76%. We will continue to see outliers I’m sure but that’s a bigger percentage than I expected.Some also think Russell Wilson will get in which pushed the percentage of Super Bowls lead by HOF quarterbacks to 77.6%.   That’s a pretty strong argument that you need a truly great QB to win it all.Some damn good ones, at least in the years they won,   are Plunkett and Phil Simms.The Brad Johnson’s and others like him are outliers.</blockquote>
