Smokin’ Jay Cutler: (puffs smoke) “The twilight of my career began the day I was drafted…”

I think in 10 years when Tom Brady starts to approach the twilight of his career he will struggle too.

Peyton and Drew Brees are both legends but seeing them in their final seasons was painful

Oh, hey there, Eli. Didn’t see you there (He’s a Giants legend, at least…cut me some slack)

Dan Marino did not deserve to go out the way he did. That was brutal. Dude got straight up Boba Fett'd out of the league.

In my lifetime, I've seen Johnny Unitas wearing a Chargers (?!?) uniform, and Joe Namath wearing a Rams (?!?) uniform. Both were SO bizarre to see. And both went out with a whimper. It was really hard to see these two heroes of mine have to limp off into the sunset.

"Manning looked like OJ and Al Cowlings, a slow white Bronco" LOL that was good

Such a shame Dan Marino never won a Championship, he was The Truth

I feel like Brees deserves at least an honorable mention. His decline was especially painful because it was over the course of four years and some would argue more then that. He also really got banged up over the course of those four seasons as well.

You usually don't give up the game. The game usually gives you up.

Johnny Unitas had the wrong offense around him in San Diego. As a unit, they were not ready for a strong passing game. The O line couldn't hold back defenders and the pocket would collapse. Receivers and Tight Ends were not used to, or ready for timing routes, bump and runs, or long, gun-slinger type passes. When Foutes was under center, he ran a more balanced offense, and found huge success with the team.

Peytons final year deserves a dam son

"Just like Robert Kraft at a massage parlor." OMG THAT KILLED ME

Like Tom Brady, the Robert Kraft cracks never get old.

Can't wait to see Brady on this list after 2049 season

Steelers fans: “Ben. It’s time.” 😄

i have such a soft spot for unitas. he's lithuanian like me and was a great player. i've only ever heard good things about him. may he rest in peace.

Joe Namath‘s athletic peak was his All-American Alabama college years. Unfortunately, in that era ACL surgery wasn’t refined, but he was still a great NFL QB on hobbled knees.

Favre's final season was the definition of "Time to Hang Up the Cleats"

Unitas struggled to play with the Chargers. But I’ve seen Fouts talk about how invaluable it was having him there as a mentor. Can you imagine having the greatest quarterback of all time there to help you through your rookie season?

Joe Namath grew up in the town next to my childhood home. He's looked at as a legend locally obviously, but would love more in depth video on the subject...

Favre’s consecutive start streak ended in Week 13 of the 2010 Season against the Bills. He suffered an AC sprain from linebacker Arthur Moates and missed the next game which ended his start streak at 297.

Pretty sure 95% of quarterbacks out there would trade their best season for Manning's worst

Ouch... 62-7 i knew it was coming. Dolphins wasted a hell of a career...

I was checking some of the QBs I had in my mind as retiring later than they should have - dunno if he fits the category... but those of you who don't know, guess which year Warren Moon played his last game in the NFL. Answer below. It was in 2000. He was 44. Crazy. Moon and Tom Brady played in the same NFL season...

Ken Stabler had an awful final game with the Saints where he immediately retired after said game. 38 used to be the Wall, I remember the class of 2000 QBs all hit the wall between 2009 and 2011

Add up the score of Marino’s last game 😈

I have no idea how Mr. FivePoints can possibly come up with all the video ideas he does…

Would love to see the inverse of this video. Like some late career resurgances

Bradshaw's final pass? Touchdown.

Favre’s start streak was ended by Arthur Moats of the bills, it was a rare highlight from that era as a bills fan

I'd give them credit for hanging in there and doing their best to stay on top.

'Slow white bronco' I'm weak 🤣😂

As someone who was an adult when it happened, the OJ and Al Cowlings joke was just *chef's kiss*!

Well In Ben's Defense if he were to retire before the 2021 Season the Steelers would have been screwed over financially due to his contract so he had to play out the final year of his contract. Also he is no where near throwing as many ints as Manning or Marino did in their final seasons.

I can tell this was an attack on urinating tree in the yinzers.

It’s wild how these QBs basically stay dominant for their whole career and then they all have a season they just fall apart in

This is what make Brady playing at the age of 44 years old incredible. Yet the haters still says it's all purely " Defense" 🤣🤣

I’m a huge fan of your videos, but we gotta talk about this Joe Namath take you have. IMO Namath’s status as an icon, and his SB win, are enough to make him a franchise QB alone. I feel like using stats to decide whether they’re a “franchise” player or not is a moot point with any QB pre-Marino. That being said about stats tho, Namath would put up Rodgers-like numbers in today’s league if you ask me.

I’m from Mississippi and I loved the joke with Brett Farve

I was at that Bears/Vikes game. Cold as all hell!

Meanwhile Tom Brady at 75: *the empire marches on*

It was the Bills that knocked out Favre on Dec 5. First and only game I saw Favre play. Didn't start against Giants on Dec 13 note played at Ford Field.

Are we going to ignore the sound effect after him saying “a happy ending”?

Haha, FivePoints is never gonna let Bob Kraft off the hook for the massage parlor thing.

Lmao that happy ending joke was so good.

Would you do a series about sports around the world that are big in countries or regions that people might not know or ever heard of

Can’t wait to see Big Ben on this list next time a vid like this is made.

Big Ben the gunslinger isn't done yet

Video idea: Coaches who did well in the NFL, but were bad college coaches.

Loved hearing that joke made at Rub'n'Tug Robbie Kraft's expense!

Slow white bronco line killed me haha

Roethlisberger's stats arent as bad as the ones on this list, but his arm and mobility, which were once phenomenal, are all but gone

The tackle that injured Favre would've been flagged nowadays

Big thumbs up for the “slow, white Bronco” joke. Glad my boy Marino (Dolphins fan here) decided to retire as a Dolphin instead of signing with some other team.

Big Ben: If you duct taped two sticks for arms on to..the winner of the "Fat Bear" contest.

Recently I heard that Mike Westhoff had interviewed for the Dolphins coaching job sometime during Marino's career, either when Jimmy left or Shula left. He said he would have put Marino in the shot gun a 100% percent of the time. He felt that it would have complemented his ability to throw the football because he could still throw it at that time. Marino also had the chance to go to the Vikings or the Steelers if he would have played one more year. He would have played with Randy Moss and Chris Carter. He would have lit it up. The problem, at the end of his career, was Jimmy Johnson. I love Jimmy because I am a die hard canes fan as well. However, telling your veteran QB to stop audibling and forcing him to run stretch run plays when the poor guy's legs could barely handle that was ridiculous. He also ran two man route plays out of the play action with a terrible running game. The play action pass doesn't work if there is no running game. Great coaches take what his players do best and complement his players' skills. Marino could still throw it. He had a lot of injuries during that time because he had the worse offensive lines at the end of his career, but he could still throw it. Watch the videos. Just compare Marino and Elway's last 4 years in the NFL. If you draw parallels between Marino and Elway's last 4 years in the league, the difference was the team around them. Before Mike Shanahan took over the Broncos and built a legendary running game with Terell Davis, a Hall of fame tight end in Shannon Sharpe and a great defense, and great young receivers in Rod Smith and Mcaffery, and an awesome offensive line, people were thinking Elway was washed up. The team that Shanahan put around Elway resurrected Elway's career. If they would have built a great team around Marino, he could have ended his career with the greatness he deserved. That last game against the Jaguars was disrespectful. Apparently, Jimmy overworked the team the week before playing Jacksonville, a team full of veterans who were fighting through injuries and the team lost 60 something to 7 and gave up over 500 yards of offensive. Marino was pulled at Half time when Jimmy threw the towel. As a Marino fan, I wanted him to play for the Vikings or the Steelers. The steelers and the Vikings had very good teams at the time. What if.

Joe Namath was probably the best pure passer with the best mechanics of all time, unfortunately for him he had two knees that were beyond repair

I would’ve hurt myself if I saw Drew brees on here. Thanks FPV

I would’ve loved to have seen Marino in a different uniform during the twilight of his career

Cam Newton seems like a good candidate for part 2

This the best football channel on the Tube. 🙌 ⬇️

Hey at least Big Ben had one more playoff appearance before the end if he had a decent o line this year I think it would have been more similar to how he played in the 2020 season

Marino was never given a consistent running attack to keep opposing defenses off balance.

He wanted a happy ending 😂😂😂

Love the paid promotion's brother!!!! Best commercials ever....

If Joe Flacco had retired a Raven (hell, even after the year in Denver), his number would probably be retired. Now, Hollywood is associated with the number, and Flacco can’t even keep his 5 in Philly.

“His most embarrassing moment”….. Wait a few years and Brett Favre took this statement to a whole new level💀💀💀 #WelfareBandit💯

Hey Five, would you be interested in doing a stadium vid about F1 tracks?

The fact that Namath made the Hall of Fame really discredits the institution. Some deserving player lost out on his HOF bust just because Namath played for a team in New York City.

The actual video starts at 1:39

Your info is slightly off about Favre. He missed the start the week prior against the Giants because of swelling in his hand (a game played at Ford Field due to the Metrodome roof collapsing). He played the next week against the Bears as mentioned, got concussed (because there weren't any heating coils under the field yet), then missed the rest of the year.

Well In Ben's Defense if he were to retire before the 2021 Season the Steelers would have been screwed over financially due to his contract so he had to play out the final year of his contract.

It may have been ugly, but at the end of the day Peyton Manning walked away with a Super Bowl ring. It’s the other Manning brother, who belongs on this list

my dad was at SB III so that shows you how impossible of a ticket it's become lol, I always told him how important it was that the Jets won but they were rooting for the Colts lol. Oh well a week in Miami

"Manning looked like OJ and Al Cowlings: a slow white Bronco." 💀

I can Brady making his way on to an updated version of this list in 10 years...

5:16 *WRONG-O.* It was against the Bills and *Arthur Moats* hit Favre from behind, injuring his shoulder 🩹

How about Snake struggling in Houston?

It still hurst to see Johnny Unitas in a Charger uniform.

Joe Namath is a hall of famer based on that one Super Bowl. If you look at his career stats, he had more interceptions than touchdown passes, and his teams lost more games than they won.

New title: QB's who wouldn't admit that they were in their twilight.

Some guys just don’t know when to hang ‘em up… and some teams are just delusional about their over the hill QBs… it’s kind of sad.

So many you can put in here. Jim Kelly, Drew Brees etc. And maybe once Brady is in his 50s and he starts slowing down he’ll make this list as well

Part II coming next year featuring Big Ben.

FIRST KTO NOW FIVEPOINTS BAH GAWD!

People making such a big deal about Big Ben, like this doesn't happen to every aged veteran

I knew Johnny U would be in this video.

brees, eli, maybe cam if he retires for pt2

Namath (after FOUR knee surgeries) managed to convince the Rams to put a clause in his final contract that he was NOT ALLOWED to be sacked more than (once?) a game (and with the Rams truly awful offensive line, that was PRAYING a lot) he would be PAID, he got his money but just to watch Namath HOBBLE onto the field was painful.... BUT HE GOT PAID!

That last season of Marino is still probably miles better than a host of QBs we've had in Miami this century.

This video needs to be updated to include Big Ben.

I know it's not a QB but Emmitt Smith playing with the Cardinals was sad.

John Elway, Denver's version of Bojack Horseman.

Coming from a Steelers fan I get that I’m biased however we had gone 16 games without over 100 rushing yards and we now have two straight which means something is improving even if it’s very slight and Ben hasn’t looked as horrendous the past two weeks. Jesus bless y’all.

Manning’s last run compares to Dilfer’s Super Bowl season. A lot. Bad Manning was premiere Trent.

The worst part of Favre's downfall is that had he could've retired a year earlier and gone out after one of his best seasons. Instead, he came back after yet another will he/won't he retirement saga. It's really a shame that Bountygate occurred, because he was playing quite well those playoffs before he got concussed against the Saints

1:39 to avoid the ads I pay KZfaq to hide

Should definitely make a Overrated “Legends” of the NFL video

To think so many people coming to Jacksonville never knowing that once upon a time the Jags were actually contenders and didn't need a league wide injury bug to help them. Nor would they know the Jags were undefeated in 1999 if the Titans didn't exist and they sent off Dan Marino with an absolute thrashing. On a side note this makes me wish they'd sign Frank Gore just so he could break Emmitt Smith's all time rushing record.
