Boomer Esiason (1984-1997)

Just like Kosar with the Browns, Boomer Esiason has a great reputation among the fans of the Cincinnati Bengals. However, his career is actually pretty average all in all. In 1988, he completed his MVP season with a 45.3 percent passing completion rate. He also had a 48.0 passer rating in the three playoff games. His career saw him turn the ball over above 300 times. It does not help that as a starter, he closed his career with an 80-93 record and completed only 57 percent of his passes. On the bright side, his broadcaster career has helped improve his reputation when he finally left the green.

Jim McMahon (1982-1996)

Like other guys on the list, Jim McMahon had the privilege of serving as quarterback for one of the best NFL teams ever. In fact, you can even argue that it was the best. He had been in the right place at the right time, but his career stats are not as flawless as his performance at the popular “The Super Bowl Shuffle.” This “Punky QB” had meager numbers such as passing only for a hundred touchdowns and the completion of only 58 percent of his passes. At any rate, he will always be held in high regard by fans of the Bears.
