Quarterbacks who have won championships with multiple teams:

Norm Van Brocklin: Rams 1951 and Eagles 1960 (both NFL)

Tobin Rote: Lions 1957 (NFL) and Chargers 1963 (AFL)

Peyton Manning: Colts 2006 and Broncos 2015 (both NFL)

Tom Brady: Patriots 2001, 203, 2004, 2014, 2016, 2018 and Buccaneers 2020

You decide: Earl Morrall was the back-up quarterback who took over for Johnny Unitas  in the 1968 pre-season and quarterback the Colts to an NFL championship and a 15-1 record, actually winning NFL MVP. Then the lost the Super Bowl, which was not yet the NFL championship game to Joe Namath's Jets. Don Shula took Earl with him to Miami where he was the back-up who took over when Bob Griese was injured and led the 1972 Dolphins to a perfect 14-0 regular season and started the playoff games against the Browns and Steelers. Griese was back full-time for the Super Bowl and led the team to the championship and the 17-0 record. Earl's record as a starter in those two years was 26-2.

Do we add Earl Morrall to the list?
