    Rex Grossman should go shoot himself in the foot.
    What do you mean "should"? He's the MASTER of it.

    The Payton Manning type of pressure comes from being an elite quarterback in the NFL and playing at a level that no one else really does while still not managing to win a super bowl.

    No one is accusing of Vick or Romo of playing at a level that much higher then any other quarterback in the league so I don't think the pressure is any worse on them then it is on say............Chad Pennington.

    Originally I thought McNabb would have it, but no one really "expects" him to win a super bowl like we all did with Marino, Manning, etc.

    I now think that no one has the pressure, however, if the Carson Palmers and Drew Brees of the world continue to play at the level they do now and still not win one, they could have it in another few years.
    I agree with this. The pressure on Peyton was that he was widely perceived as being the next best ever' type of guy. A no-brainer HOF guy. We have seen and heard the arguement before about Marino, therefore there was even more pressure for Peyton since it was mainly Marino's records he was breaking.

    Right now I see no QB in the NFL that will ever be placed in this high realm. even some of the 1st rounders are nice QBs, but none is seen as the franchise savior or the next Marino/Montana.

    Usually, the best of all time have Rings. After Marino, the next best example would be Barry. The only player I can see right now maybe in the category would be Urlacher. Possibly LT in a few years. I don't see another player right now reaching that status. You could argue TO, but he pisses people off so much they don't care unless he's on their team.

    I say Mcnabb, Im sure the Philly fans are already frustrated with him. Rex Grossman is still young for that kind of pressure. Mcnabb is just getting older.

    I'll go Vick...

    Ever since his first day in the league he's been touted as the "next step" in the evolution as a quarterback. He has all the tools (mobility, vision, strong arm) to make a great QB, but has fallen short of expectations. His team will need to rebound from a so-so year, but I think if he ever figures out how to manage his unbelievable skill he could be the best QB in the league. He has to carry his team to victory and until he does, he'll have that pressure of never winning big when he had all the tools.
