Who Is the Greatest Super Bowl Quarterback of All Time?

There is a lot of debate about who the greatest Super Bowl quarterback was. I have devised a system that is going to finally answer that question.

First off, in order to be included in this list, your signal caller would had to have been a part of at least two Super Bowls (sorry, Peyton Manning fans).

My point system is as follows:

100 points if you win a Super Bowl.

50 points if your team loses the game.

10 points for every passing touchdown thrown.

-10 for every interception.

10 points for every rushing touchdown the quarterback scores.

1 point for every completion.

-1 point for every incompletion.

1 point for every 10 yards passing.

25 points for winning the MVP.

25 points for a 4th qtr. comeback.
