RE: Does Dan Fouts belong in Top 20 QBs of All Time?

He HAD quality receivers in TE Kellen Winslow and WRs Charlie Joiner, Wes Chandler, Lionel James, and John Jefferson. It is a mystery to me how a team with that talent never won a Super Bowl, let alone 2 or 3 of them. His o-line was tight as well. There just happened to be better teams with better QBs whenever they got to the playoffs.
Additionally... 60% > 50% especially when there are a LOT more passing yards, completions, and attempts.
its not a mystery at all....the chargers had no defense during the air coryell years..we could score on anybody,but theyd just get it back on the next posession...dan fouts imo is definetely a top 20 qb...
look at this...

First 20 qbs to pop into my head excluding Fouts
Marino
Elway
Peyton
Brady
Aikman
Starr
Unitas
Graham
Namath
Montana
Young
Staubach
Bradshaw
Favre
Kelly
Griese
Mcnabb
Brees
Simms
Baugh
I probably missed an obvious QB but Id put Fouts ahead of Griese and McNabb so Fouts is a top 20 guy from just random memory.
Unique Cards:
Dolphins - 6000+
Marino - 2140
Zach Thomas - 869
Jason Taylor - 749
