The more of a "gunslinger" you were considered to be, the better.
Were you a pass-first quarterback that had no problem trying to place a ball perfectly into triple coverage? If so, you probably had a large number of pick sixes over the course of your career.
-
At the top of the list? Brett Favre.
Favre, with his ridiculously strong arm, had a long career in the NFL.
Over his two decades in the NFL, Favre threw a total of 31 pick sixes, which puts him at the top of the list.
Next up on the list? Dan Marino, who tossed a total of 29 pick sixes over the course of his 17 year career.
-
The active player that has a very good chance of breaking the record? Matthew Stafford.
Stafford is just 34 years of age and is still playing at a very high level.
As of this moment, Stafford has 27 pick sixes, which puts him in a tie with Drew Brees and Peyton Manning for #4 on the list.
Given that Stafford will likely play for at least another 5-6 years, he is almost a lock to break the record.
