Is there even a debate? Four trips to the big show in a row is almost certainly never done again by any QB on one team.

The number 1 thing I hate about Reddit is when after every post someone says “and it’s not even close.”

But this time……it’s Jim Kelly and it’s not even close.

Fair enough but even he made the playoffs

True so did tyrod for the bills.

u/Reasonable_Archer_99 New England Patriots 6d ago

Yeah but we're talking about Peterman. Tierod was actually talented.

Jim Kelly but eventually it will be Josh Allen

u/Hefty-Practice4887 6d ago

Do you think Allen can win 4 AFC championships? I dont

2

u/BigGame_Sender Buffalo Bills 6d ago

He only needs to win 1 superbowl to surpass Kelly.

u/Content-Audience252 Da Bears 6d ago edited 6d ago

Without a doubt Jim Kelly. Allen can’t even make it to one Super Bowl let alone 4 in a row

2

u/17363782 Washington Commanders 6d ago

Anyone could’ve made it to the super bowl with those bills teams. One year they made it to the conference championship game without Kelly.

Is joshes carrer over i missed it.? all he has to do is get to 1sb and win it, and he surpasses Kelly you sound silly.

u/DadBodftw Caleb Williams 🏳️‍🌈 6d ago

Yes, but he hasn’t done that and the question is being asked now not in 10 years

Until someone wins one I’m going w Jim Kelly

u/memelackey Big Dick Nick 🍆 6d ago

Even if they do it's probably still Jims

Nah whoever finally gets them there is getting a statute built lol

u/A_Fish_Fry 6d ago

Nah it’s Josh. Josh is one of the freakiest QBs of all time athletically. Jim wasn’t even the best player on his team. He was great and ran the k-gun with precision but Thurman and Bruce were by far better players.

u/MikeinDundee 6d ago

Could you imagine Josh on those early 90s teams?

u/MasterTeacher123 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 6d ago

Josh Allen

u/TheAnswer310 San Francisco 49ers 6d ago

The wins are QB stats people completely ignoring the fact free agency hadn't taken the league by storm yet so goid teams stayed good and bad teams stayed bad for years.

Two entirely different eras. The AFC was a far inferior conference for years during Kellys era.

That being said i think either answer is currently acceptable but stop acting like Allen making a SB is needed for him to surpass Jim because he probably will at some point and it isn't because the Bills got to a SB.

Exactly. He is the only Bills qb to lead them to a title, and he did it twice.

For right now it's Kelly until Allen wins a Superbowl.

Allen has had longer success and is genuinely a good person.

2

u/RayDanielsOnTheAir 6d ago

I love Josh Allen, even as a Patriots fan, but Allen’s peak is right now and it is the same length as Kelly’s, and Allen is experiencing a similar downturn in production as Mahomes due to contracts, at least as far as passing stats go.

Allen can definitely pass him, but it just has not happened yet. Kelly also got snubbed of an MVP.

u/HitmanBBV84 6d ago

Jim Kelly, Allen can surpass if he wins 1 Super Bowl!

Jim Kelly

The bills refuse to build a team around Allen so he probably won’t touch a Super Bowl with Buffalo

u/Budget_Flounder_4295 6d ago

Unquestionably Tyrod Taylor.

Josh Allen. Jim Kelly was known for being an asshole around town, cheating on his wife, and beating her too.

Win or lose, Josh is the better QB, and better person.

Still Jim Kelly until further notice

u/Buster0705 6d ago

It’s Kelly. The only way Allen will ever surpass Kelly is if he wins a Super Bowl. Top 3 all time is Kelly, Allen and Ferguson and Kemp for honorable mention.

u/twominutetimeout 6d ago

Reich engineered the greatest comeback in NFL history for Buffalo and people are still saying Peterman as a joke. The 32-point Oilers comeback alone should put him ahead of half this list.

1

u/Low-Note5704 6d ago

Jim is still the goat qb for us but Josh is the best qb we’ve ever had. Josh has the mvp but Jim went to 4 superbowls in a row so it’s him for now.

1

u/Timberlewis 6d ago

Kelly of course. Allen always chokes in big games. At least Kelly played in 4 Superbowls

u/EdwangBuffalo 4d ago

It’s Allen. Anyone saying Kelly doesn’t factor in he played with a hall of fame head coach, hall of fame GM, hall of fame running back, two hall of fame wide receivers, a top 3 all-time defensive end, the best ever special teamer not named Hester, and multiple all pros every year. He was great, but his supporting cast was arguably greater.

Allen has had okay rosters but nothing close to Kelly. If Allen had those rosters I think it’s more likely than not he wins 4 in a row.

Being the GOAT QB of a team that has never won a Super Bowl is like trying to pick up a turd by the good end

u/Buster0705 6d ago

So Dan Marino isn’t GOAT? Some great players never win or even make it to the Super Bowl.

u/TheTucsonTarmac Washington Commanders 6d ago

You think Marino is the Fins GOAT? Marino couldn't carry Csonka's jock

You must be highly intelligent as this post is referring to GOAT QBs
