Unlike most on our top 10 quarterbacks of all time list, Peyton Manning’s legacy is still being written by the 37-year-old with the Denver Broncos in season 2013-14.
Manning burst onto the scene in his rookie season, breaking five records for a first year quarterback including most touchdowns with 26 and yard passing with 3739.
A master of the hurry up offence, Manning has four MVPs to his name long with the most 4000-plus passing seasons in history, and whenever Manning does walk away from the game forever, there is a good chance he will finish higher than number five on this list.
