Fran Tarkenton played in the NFL for 18 seasons. He was not physically big but he was aggressive. He played for the Minnesota Vikings. I consider him the greatest quarterback to ever step on a football field but most fans do not agree with me. Tarkenton still tops the record books for rushing yards by a quarterback. He also leads in passing completions, touchdowns, and passing yardage. He played in 9 Pro Bowls. He was voted the NFL MVP one time. I am convinced that the main reason he is not considered the greatest quarterback is because he never won a Super Bowl. In the end I think the judgment is fair due to the fact that great quarterbacks win world championships. However, on the other hand, the numbers don't lie. He accomplished what he accomplished.
