Not many Game managers win titles. Dilfer and Johnson are the exception but defenses like they had dont come along every season.

When I said "gunslinger" in reference to Colt, I mentioned Favre/Romo. Favre being the career interception leader, and notoriously risky with ball, he is the "gunslinger" I think of first and foremost. And for all the success he had statistically, he only has 1 ring, for now. Romo maybe not as much, but I still see a bit of "gunslinger" in him as well. Kurt Warner I might put in that group, even though Im aware he did have a nice run last year(Fitz and Anquan didnt help at all
). And even though he had an incredible game(31/43 377yds 3tds), he did have the one interception that Harrison returned for the TD. BTW, Steelers 27 Cardinals 23 so that one play had a huge outcome on the game, especially since it was returned from the Steeler 1yd line. He had a great run, but eventually taking risks will get you burned. Its the reason Im happy with Romo being the Cowgirls QB, I dont believe he can put 3-4 consistent games together back to back, especially against the elite teams in the playoffs.
And Id never put Manning/Brady in that group, because I have common sense. Brady two seasons ago 50tds/8ints, I dont think thats being risky. Early Manning was a bit risky(young & dumb), but these two have consistently had twice as many TD's than INT's.
I do love the throwing downfield to take defenders out of the box, this can only help. And maybe Im just an "old timer" like Gibbs...but if you run the ball well, play good defense and take care of the ball, you win games. Turnovers almost always make the little differences in games, and "gunslinger" isnt what I want.
