Eli Manning
Eli Manning led the New York Giants to two Super Bowl victories, earning MVP honors in both Super Bowl XLII and Super Bowl XLVI for his clutch performances. He is known for his game-winning drive against the undefeated Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. During the regular season, I probably wouldn't want Eli as my quarterback, but if my team is down in the 4th quarter in the Super Bowl, give me Eli 100% without a doubt. #believe
Eli is the best when it comes to Super Bowls. As soon as he is in the playoffs, he shows who is boss.
Tom Brady
Tom Brady holds the record for most Super Bowl appearances with 10, winning seven championships and earning five MVP titles throughout his Super Bowl career. Brady has set numerous Super Bowl records, including most career touchdown passes in the game. Eli Manning number 1? Are you kidding me? This has to be a joke. People who voted for him know nothing about football. All he has is luck. He closed his eyes when he threw those two lucky passes for crying out loud! Give credit to David Tyree and Mario Manningham, not Eli.
Everyone's probably voting for him because he beat Tom Brady twice. But give credit to the defense, because they held the Patriots to just 31 points combined in those two Super Bowls. Tom Brady is the best Super Bowl player ever. He's won five Super Bowls, MVP in four of them, and he led his team to a 25 point comeback win against the Falcons in Super Bowl LI! They were down 28-3! But Brady did what he does best. Tom Brady is the GOAT! And Eli sucks!
FYI, Joe Montana should be number 2, because he won 4 Super Bowls and is the greatest 49er of all time.
Joe Montana
Joe Montana won four Super Bowl titles with the San Francisco 49ers and was awarded Super Bowl MVP three times. Montana famously never threw an interception in his four Super Bowl appearances. This guy is not the most famous quarterback in the history of football for no reason. He can throw down just about any quarterback you put him against!
Joe Montana has won 4 Super Bowls, which is the most by any QB, and has lost none. He has thrown 11 touchdowns and 0 interceptions. He has won 3 Super Bowl MVPs.
Kurt Warner
Kurt Warner won Super Bowl MVP in Super Bowl XXXIV, leading the Rams to victory with a then-record 414 passing yards. Warner also guided two different teams to Super Bowl appearances, the Rams and Cardinals. Hall of Famer, no doubt about it.
Santonio Holmes
Santonio Holmes made a game-winning touchdown catch with less than a minute remaining in Super Bowl XLIII, earning MVP honors for his performance. Holmes recorded 131 receiving yards in that Super Bowl, helping secure the Steelers' victory over the Cardinals. Talk about ballerinas! Nice tip-toe in the corner of the end zone. He also caught five passes on the winning drive.
Desmond Howard
Desmond Howard became the first and only special teams player to win Super Bowl MVP for his performance in Super Bowl XXXI. He returned a kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown, which helped the Packers defeat the Patriots.
Devin Hester
Devin Hester set a record by returning the opening kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown in Super Bowl XLI, the first time this was ever done in a Super Bowl. Hester's touchdown provided an early lead for the Chicago Bears against the Indianapolis Colts. He has the best Super Bowl return ever. He disappeared into the pack and then reappeared.
Johnny Unitas
Johnny Unitas, regarded as one of the earliest great quarterbacks, led the Baltimore Colts to a victory in Super Bowl V. Although not at his peak in this era, he contributed to the Colts' win despite being injured.
Adam Vinatieri
Adam Vinatieri is known for his clutch kicking, making game-winning field goals in the final seconds of both Super Bowl XXXVI and Super Bowl XXXVIII for the Patriots. Vinatieri holds the record for most Super Bowl field goals made. Adam Vinateri wins the game for his team in the Super Bowl. If it wasn't for him, the Patriots wouldn't be a dynasty.
Troy Aikman
Troy Aikman won three Super Bowl championships with the Dallas Cowboys and was named MVP of Super Bowl XXVII. Aikman threw a total of 5 touchdown passes in his Super Bowl career, solidifying his place as one of the game's top quarterbacks.
The Newcomers
? Terrell Davis
Terrell Davis rushed for 157 yards and three touchdowns in Super Bowl XXXII, earning MVP honors and helping the Denver Broncos secure their first Super Bowl title. Despite playing with a migraine during the game, he was instrumental in the Broncos' win.
? Ben Roethlisberger
Ben Roethlisberger won two Super Bowls with the Pittsburgh Steelers, including a memorable game-winning drive in Super Bowl XLIII. Although he never won MVP, his clutch performances helped the Steelers secure Super Bowl XL and XLIII victories.
The Contenders
Peyton Manning
Peyton Manning is the first quarterback to win Super Bowl titles with two different teams, the Colts in Super Bowl XLI and the Broncos in Super Bowl 50. He retired following the Broncos' Super Bowl 50 victory, securing his second championship.
Terry Bradshaw
Terry Bradshaw led the Pittsburgh Steelers to four Super Bowl victories and earned two MVP awards in Super Bowl XIII and XIV. Bradshaw was known for his deep passing ability and pivotal role in the Steelers' 1970s dynasty. One of the all-time greatest quarterbacks ever. 4 Super Bowl rings in the 1970s. Go Steelers!
Jerry Rice
Jerry Rice holds the all-time Super Bowl records for receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns. He played in four Super Bowls and was awarded MVP honors in Super Bowl XXIII. Jerry Rice is currently listed in the top 25 at number 25? This list of the top ten is ridiculous! Jerry Rice belongs in the top ten, and also in the top five, and also in the top three. All-time! At his position, Jerry Rice holds all or most of the important stats and records.
And to not be in the top 10 is freaking ridiculous! And to not be in the top 5 is also a freaking joke! And to not include Jerry Rice on the top 3 list is freaking insane!
Personally, I rank Jerry Rice at number 2 all-time, just behind Joe Montana. Then, Peyton Manning at number 3, followed by Steve Young at number 4 and then maybe Tom Brady or Eli Manning at number 5. In any case, Jerry Rice being the great and legendary Jerry Rice, he easily belongs in the top 3 Greatest NFL Players of All-Time List! Yep, he belongs there, easily! Hands down, easily! Enough said!
Drew Brees
Drew Brees led the New Orleans Saints to their first Super Bowl victory in Super Bowl XLIV, where he was named MVP. Brees completed 32 of 39 passes for 288 yards and two touchdowns in that game. He's the best who doesn't get his recognition, but we love him in the Who Dat Nation. Go black and gold! We will see you in New York on Super Bowl Sunday! You heard me.
Richard Sherman
Richard Sherman helped the Seattle Seahawks dominate in their Super Bowl XLVIII victory over the Denver Broncos, contributing to a strong defensive showing. He was instrumental in the Seahawks' "Legion of Boom" secondary during this era. This guy is very difficult to throw on. He will not let you catch the ball easily at all. He is an excellent player.
Aaron Rodgers
Aaron Rodgers led the Green Bay Packers to victory in Super Bowl XLV, earning MVP honors after throwing for 304 yards and three touchdowns. This win marked the Packers' fourth Super Bowl title.
Russell Wilson

Mike Jones
Mike Jones made a game-saving tackle on the one-yard line as time expired in Super Bowl XXXIV, preserving the St. Louis Rams' victory over the Tennessee Titans. His iconic "tackle" is remembered as one of the most memorable plays in Super Bowl history.
Joe Namath
Joe Namath famously guaranteed a victory for the New York Jets in Super Bowl III, then led them to an upset win over the heavily favored Baltimore Colts. Namath earned MVP honors in that game, completing 17 of 28 passes for 206 yards.

Jim Kelly
Jim Kelly led the Buffalo Bills to four consecutive Super Bowl appearances from 1991 to 1994, though they fell short in each game. Despite the losses, Kelly's role in the Bills' offense was pivotal to their AFC dominance in the early 1990s.
Earl Thomas
Earl Thomas was a key part of the Seattle Seahawks' "Legion of Boom" defense, contributing significantly to their victory in Super Bowl XLVIII. Thomas's coverage skills and tackling were instrumental in the Seahawks' success.

Bob Hayes
Bob Hayes, a Hall of Fame wide receiver, played for the Dallas Cowboys and contributed to their victory in Super Bowl VI. Known for his speed, Hayes helped stretch defenses and was a key offensive threat for the Cowboys. The fastest human being to ever play the game of football and most likely the only one who could occasionally beat Usain Bolt.
His anchor leg in the 4x100 relay in the 1964 Olympics is the fastest any human has ever run under their own power on level ground. However, relay legs do not count for records. The time for that last 100 meters was 8.7 seconds.
