Otto Graham led the Cleveland Browns to a remarkable straight title games. A feat no other quarterback has ever matched. During his career, he had many late drives and fourth quarter comebacks.

He was as clutch as they came back then and when he switched leagues, people didn't think he would be able to stack up against the higher competition of the NFL. He proved them wrong. One of Graham's greatest comebacks was a game against the Rams. He led the Browns to a thrilling win that saw him run for 99 yards, throw for more and throw four touchdowns. Graham will go down as one of the greatest players ever and his "clutch gene" only further supports that case.

Dan Marino not only shares a birthday with me, but he also owns the record of most fourth quarter comebacks in NFL history 36 , according to profootballreference.

Many will say this distinction should have him higher on the list, but I'm not the only one who has him this low. If it wasn't for the other quarterbacks on the list and maybe a few more playoff performances, he'd be higher.

Dolphins coach Don Shula said he knew they were never out of a game with Marino at quarterback. And a game against the New York Jets during the season provided insurance for that claim. It's known for the fake-spike in the final minutes of the game that helped pull out a come-from-behind victory. Marino will go down as one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history, this distinction only furthers his spot on the list. Staubach led the Dallas Cowboys to 15 fourth quarter comebacks and 23 game-winning drives.

He also led the Cowboys to four Super Bowls in the '70s in which he won two of them. One of his greatest comebacks was a game against the Baltimore Colts. With the Cowboys down , he took them on three scoring drives, one that ended with a yard touchdown pass, one that lead to the tying field goal and one that ended in the game-winning field goal.

During the game, he had a passer rating of Staubach will always be remembered for being the leader of the Cowboys and making the Cowboys known for being "America's team.

Tom Brady has become one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, in such a short period. He went from being a sixth-round draft pick, to winning three Super Bowls in four years. He has become known for his late-game poise and control of the game.
