Is the #6 an Unlucky Football Jersey Number?

[ChicoCheese]

I watched Top 10 on NFL Network over the weekend and I caught 2 very interesting Top 10s. The first episode was of "Top 10 Jersey Numbers", the second was "Top 10 players to wear #12." The second episode got me thinking of jersey #s 1-19, and if there have been any great QBs to wear each number. I have come up with the following list, and please feel free to add to it.

#1 - Warren Moon

#2 - Matt Ryan (I DO believe this guy will win it all sooner or later...if the Packers can't make it.), besides that...it is pretty cursed too.

#3 - Tony Canadeo, Daryle Lamonica

#4 - Brett Favre

#5 - Joe Flacco (Say what you will, he did win a Super Bowl and has made the playoffs and won at least one game in the playoffs in each season. He is a good QB, but maybe not $120mil good.)

#6 - ?

#7 - John Elway, Joe Theisman, Ben Roethlisberger

#8 - Troy Aikman, Steve Young

#9 - Sonny Jerguson, Drew Brees

#10 - Eli Manning, Fran Tarkenton

#11 - Phil Simms, Drew Bledsoe (maybe?)

#12 - Aaron Rodgers, Roger Staubach, Terry Bradshaw, Bob Griese, Tom Brady, Joe Willy Namath, Jim Kelly...I know I am forgetting SOMEONE.

#13 - Dan Marino, Kurt Warner

#14 - Dan Fouts, Otto Graham

#15 - Bart Starr

#16 - Joe Montana, Len Dawson, Jim Plunkett

#17 - Don Merideth

#18 - Peyton Manning

#19 - Johnny Unitas, Bernie Kosar (maybe?), and KC Montana

Bubby Brister is probly the best number 6. 2 rings as a backup to Elway. We need a new number 6!!!! Is Pryor number 6?

Cutler is #6

Cutler wears #6 currently, but other than Bubby and Marc Wilson, not many #6's that I can think of.

BENNY FRIEDMAN HOF Qb wore #6

Cutler is #6

Doesn't really help my point. Sanchez is #6 too....

Actually look at Cutler's winning percentage and 4th quarter efficiency. This is partially stemming from the Bears first 2 wins but besides a media bias, people should be able to recognize Cutler as a top QB.

The player in your picture actually is one of the worst clutch/4th quarter performers in NFL history.

SI says Kevin Butler the old kicker for the Bears is the best #6 to ever play. Not a QB though.

Aaron Rodgers typically doesn't NEED to eek out a 4th quarter win. However, when he DOES it looks like 2011 @ NY Giants, 2012 @ Detriot, etc. Hell, even lat week if the defense didn't need to use all of our timeouts vs. the 49ers and Aaron Rodgers had a time out or two to work with, something tells me we woulda won by 1pt.

Cutler wears 6, but other than that I can't remember a starting QB of any relevance whatsoever who has worn the number.
