NFL Films "Best Ever Quarterbacks" narrated by John Facenda. From an old VCR recording. This is the original version from the late 1970s-early 1980s; the same feature was later updated with much the same footage and music, but a different narrator.

For those wondering, at the time this was made Joe Montana was just finishing his college career at Notre Dame, and Tom Brady would have been a toddler, hence why neither is mentioned.

Grew up watching Facenda anchor the news on Channel 10 in Philly. Helped inspire my own broadcasting career.

In those days, John Facenda and Sabol's NFL Films were better than the actual games.

I was a big fan of Fouts, Stabler, Staubach and Bradshaw. Growing up a Lions fan and having their home games blacked out, I was able to see the best QBs a lot

Tarkenton was an incredible scrambler. I loved watching his highlights back in the 70's. The play @18:25 shows Tarkenton keeping the play alive and scrambling for over 23 seconds from when the ball is hiked to when he eventually passes it.

Love the old music. I guess you could say it was music with testosterone.

Steve Sabol and those NFL history films narrated by John Facenda was the reason I would sit and watch the games on Sunday. I can still hear those horns blasting.

I learned so much about football watching the clips he would announce.

Terry Bradshaw rode a very strong run game and the best defense of the 70's. He was in an enviable position as a qb.

Nobody but nobody could narrate NFL Films or any films the way John Facenda did. I'll never forget how heartbroken I was in 1983 when he died. I grew up watching all the NFL Films he narrated and was always in awe of his voice and that's because he had the Voice of God. There isn't anybody on this planet nor has there ever been someone with a Voice like John Facenda. I have one issue with this film. How could you have a documentary about the "Best Ever Quarterbacks? & not mention Bart Starr especially when this film was made in the 1970's?
