Interesting thread on Super Bowl QBs and their ratings.  Very few non-Elite QBs won super bowls.  Namath and Plunkett were probably closest to that definition (although I've always considered Plunkett to be an elite QB):

Namath was certainly considered elite in his prime. Maybe a tad overrated. But his career was hampered by injuries.

I mean, at least Dilfer was a first round draft pick (Johnson was a 9th round pick), but it's tough.  Johnson has slightly better career numbers, but both of them easily fit the definition of "journeymen".

BC

Off the top of my head:  Dilfer, Doug Williams, Brad Johnson, Theisman and Mark Rypien come to mind.

Which brings me to Joe Gibbs.  3 SB wins with 3 QB’s none of whom were great players. Williams probably the best. (Actually Theisman (pronounced Theesman prior to ND promoter) was better, but I couldnt stand the guy....)  Gibbs is a very underrated coach.
