*sigh* The ****....
He's not a bad playoff QB because he's going to lose this weekend, he's going to lose this weekend because he's a bad playoff QB. Great playoff QBs win the games that their teams aren't supposed to win, Payton hasn't done that yet, and he's lost a few games that he should have won (what was that 44-0 a few years back vs the Jet'?)
Mike Vick's done that once, and that's the only reason he was on my list, Strangler. I too think he's totally overrated (Not below average, but just overrated.)

Randall Cunningham Career Rushing yards
17 Seasons 4928 Rushing Yards
Steve Young
15 Years 4239 (more than 5000 total yards, more than Randall in as many sesons if you count his USFL days)
Roger Staubach
10 years (8 w/ 14 game seasons) 2246
Elway
15 3407
Tarkenton
17 3674
All of those guys won superbowls except for Fran who made it to the big dance and lost. None fo them ran for as much as Randall but they all put up
comparable rushing numbers.
Careful with those sweeping definitive generalizations.
