You’ve undoubtedly heard the phrase “football is a team sport” over and over again. The oft-repeated cliché is that it takes “all 53” guys to win. Still, the simple truth of the NFL is that you’re probably not going to be a Super Bowl team with a great quarterback. But not every team that’s won a Super Bowl has had a great quarterback. In fact, there are plenty of examples throughout NFL history…
Here’s our list of 10 quarterbacks who ended their careers with Super Bowl rings because they happened to be on the right team at the right time, as opposed to being the guy who truly led them to the Super Bowl. Click Next To Continue

They may not have been great but they were there winning and not sitting on the couch with their lap top writing BS while pretending to be an expert on who was the best or worst in sports.

One thing that every one of those Super Bowl winning QBs has in common is that they played on teams with an awesome defense. McMahon was teammates with Mike Singletary, who was one of the leaders of the Bears’ brilliant “46” defense that helped Chicago win Super Bowl 20. And Trent Dilfer, who ascended to the Ravens’ QB job in 2000, was supported by an awesome defense that set an NFL record for fewest points allowed in a season on the way to a Super Bowl 35 victory. So rather than just saying that the QBs on those teams didn’t deserve their Super Bowl championship rings, the Sports Drop writer should’ve also given credit to the teams’ defenses.

So then I guess Jim McMahon deserved the ring he won with Packers in 1996?

They’re referring to the guys who actually started for their teams, not backups.

All those quarterbacks deserved their Super Bowl rings, it doesn’t matter what they did before or after the Super Bowl they played in, all that matters is they didn’t do anything to make their teams lose that Super Bowl. What IDIOT wrote this list!?!

Everyone of them definitely deserved the accolades of a Super Bowl champion !!! The simple fact is they were on the winning team !!! The rectal orifice who wrote this article,obviously has a lot more in common with the quarter backs on the losing team !
