10. JOHNNY UNITAS

292 touchdowns has tenth Johnny Unitas (211 games) in the account. Up to Peyton Manning is the legendary number 19 as epitome of the Colts, who still play in Baltimore at that time. "Johnny U" is also famous for his distinctive haircut. Grandpa Simpson from the cartoon series "The Simpsons" is convinced that after this haircut you can "set the clock"

9. WARREN MOON

Warren Moon (208 games) gained not only the sporting but also a social significance. The former Houston Oilers star is the first African-American playmaker in the early 1980s, the absolute top class. With 291 passes in the end zone Moon occupies ninth place.

8. ELI MANNING

Although the younger Manning with two Super Bowl wrestling has one more than his brother - in terms of touchdowns, he will probably not be able to hold the water to the four-year-old Peyton. After all, ranked Giants quarterback Eli meanwhile but easily in the top ten.

7. JOHN ELWAY

Before that lies John Elway. The Broncos legend puts down the perfect finish after 234 season games. With two super bowls and exactly 300 touchdowns Elway retires. Some of his best performances are even thrown by the mobile director.

6. FRAN TARKENTON

Sixth place is perhaps the most exciting playmaker of all time. In a time when passes are the exception, Fran Tarkenton (left) throws 342 touchdowns in 246 games. In the jersey of the Minnesota Vikings he experienced between 1961 and 1978 - apart from a trip to the Giants - his heyday.

5. DAN MARINO

One of the most popular but also most tragic characters in history has to pass two active quarterbacks this season and is now fifth. Dan Marino raises a total of 420 touchdowns and dominates his heyday like no other actor. Nevertheless, "Dan the Man" is denied a Super Bowl success.

4. DREW BREES

One and a half years younger than Brady, but already as successful in the endzone - Brees burns a real pass for the New Orleans Saints every week and also scores 428 touchdown passes. In 2010, he brings with the Saints the Super Bowl XLIV in Miami.

3. BRETT FAVRE

With fabulous 508 touchdown passes, Favre has long been at the top of the list, but no record is forever. The "Gunslinger" experienced his best time (16 years) with the Green Bay Packers and runs in a total of 302 NFL games. The rather unworthy departure at the Vikings can not hurt his career much, after all, he wins with the Packers 1997 Super Bowl.

2. PEYTON MANNING

The quarterback genes are just too strong at Denver's number 18. Manning comes from a quarterback family and is now with 539 successful passes in the end zone at the summit of the NFL playmaker.

1. TOM BRADY

New England quarterback Tom Brady is the second active quarterback in the list. With 428 successful throws in the end zone, the man of supermodel Gisele Bundchen still has not enough at the age of 38 years
