These Quarterbacks are special
Brady, Manning, Warner, and Marino are in group by themselves with Marino making it twice. This group is the 40+ club, very exclusive!
Kurt Warner surprises us with 41 with the Rams and the Greatest Show on Turf. He is also a two time list maker with 36 in 2001.
Brett Favre had 39 way back in 1996 and 38 in 1995!
Steve Beuerlein? Maybe the least known name on the list and considered by many to be a journeyman type qb.
Quite unnoticed, except for his dating of Jessica Simpson, is Tony Romo making the list last year with 36.
