I would take Marino, Young, Irvin, and Thomas.
Marino - he's a stone cold lock. Statistically the greatest QB of all time, standing at the top of every meaningful QB stat - yards, completions, attempts, TDs. Never won the Super Bowl but led his team to the big game in his second year after passing for 5,084 yards and 48 TDs.
Young - Two time league MVP, MVP of Super Bowl XXIX with a record 6 TD passes. One of the top QBs of the 1990s, leading the league in passer rating several times and in TDs four times. Also is second all time in rushing yards by a QB.
Irvin - one of the top WRs of the 1990s. Was an integral part of 3 Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl teams. Five time Pro Bowler, led the league in receiving yards in 1991 and had 6 top-10 finishes.
Thomas - Nine-time Pro Bowler, had 126.5 career sacks, which was fourth all-time for a LB at the time of his untimely death. Recorded 20 sacks in 1990, including a league record 7 in one game.

Yeah DC pretty much nailed it here. So far I'm laughing cause for all the records Peyton Manning has set/will set he has YET to be able to take his team to the big dance. Course I'm not complaining about that either. No offense to any colts fans here, I just hate them with a passion.
