The Raiders QB Who Was Better Than Brett Favre

Before Brett Favre became a Hall of Famer, a Raiders coach believed another quarterback was even better. In the 1991 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Raiders selected Todd Marinovich in the first round and reportedly rated him above Brett Favre. Favre would go on to become a Super Bowl champion, 3-time NFL MVP, and one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. Todd Marinovich would play only eight NFL games. So what happened? This is the incredible true story of Todd Marinovich, the "Robo QB" who was engineered from birth to become football's perfect quarterback. From setting national high school records and starring at USC to becoming the Raiders' quarterback of the future, his journey seemed destined for greatness. But behind the headlines was a far more complicated story involving immense pressure, addiction, unrealized potential, and one of the biggest "what ifs" in NFL history.
