Scouting Report

Assets
  • One of the best players in NFL history. Incredible game knowledge. Still has a strong arm and good athleticism. Accurate on short and long passes. A playmaker who can create on the run.
Flaws
  • Has lost his top fastball and most of his speed. Still gambles, forces passes, and makes head scratching decisions. His "bigger than the game" image can be a distraction.
Career Potential
  • Fading Hall of Famer.
