Earlier in the week I ran an item about how Tom Brady got better with age as an NFL (and fantasy) quarterback. He's without question the best of the old-man quarterbacks we've ever seen, and no doubt will ever see. But he's not the only one.

Brett Favre, most will recall, also had several really good years at the end of his career. His last year in Green Bay, his first year with the Vikings, and a couple others -- he was a top-11 fantasy quarterback in four straight seasons until his final-year crash back to Earth in Minnesota.

Only one other aged quarterback (for the purposes of this factoid, I pulled the numbers for all quarterbacks 37 years old and up) has had four top-15 fantasy seasons in his career, using a scoring system with 4-point touchdown passes and 1 point for every 20 passing yards and 10 rushing yards, with 6-point rushing touchdowns. That was Warren Moon (pictured), who did it with the Vikings for a couple of those seasons.

Table shows all top-15 fantasy seasons from quarterbacks 37 years old or older. There have been 42 such seasons, 7 by Brady. Rodgers, if he plays a couple more years, could be the fourth member of that exclusive group.
