Fair enough...if you need a tiebreaker or something like that, I can get down with playoff performance deciding the difference.

You would agree that the way quarterbacks play in the postseason is the most important aspect in judging their careers, right?

I would disagree strongly with this. I would consider the way they played their ENTIRE career more important than play in the postseason. I trust 200 games worth of performances more than a dozen or so.

And I'm sure you would also agree that the Quarterback in football gets the most credit and therefore, should take more hits than everyone else? I mean.. every play is run through him. If you're a team that passes quite a bit, you are running the entire offense with what decisions you make.

Quarterback is a unique position, in that it is MUCH more important than any of the other positions on the field. I certainly agree with you on this.
