Brady: Where Does He Rank?
-
I love Browns fans
Anyway, since the Steelers game the Patriots have the #1 offense in the league and half their receivers are rookies.
Brady should be getting discussed for MVP if the award was given out for actually being the MVP and not having the best stats.
I love how Brady haters hang around like vultures just waiting for his stats to dip so they can dump all over him and try to convince others he sucks. The last time the Brady haters really came out in droves was 2011 after their back to back losses in week 8. He then went on to his 5th Superbowl. Keep telling yourself he sucks. You're only depriving yourself of seeing the Joe Montana of your time.
Awesome to see these replies and see it doesn't work.

I think we can all agree that Peyton, Rodgers and Brees are now superior to him. I've compiled some extensive stats that make arguments for slightly less Herculean QBs:
Brady: 3,267 yd, 19 TD, 10 TO, 60.7%, 89.2 QBR, 1 TD pass per 172 yd
Stafford: 3,825 yd, 27 TD, 17 TO, 59.2%, 89.6 QBR, 1 TD pass per 142 yd
Newton: 2,616 yd, 19 TD, 12 TO, 61.7%, 88.1 QBR, 447 rush yd, 6 rush TD, 1 TD pass per 138 yd
Wilson: 2,672 yd, 22 TD, 11 TO, 64.9%, 108.5 QBR, 456 rush yd, 1 rush TD, 1 TD pass per 121 yd
Keep in Mind:
Stafford only has 1 reliable receiver, yet he's thrown for 558 more yd, the equivalent of almost 2 extra games.
Newton likewise only has 1 trusty receiver: a TE. Newton has a better completion % and an equal number of TD passes as Brady, despite throwing 7.62% less than Brady. CAR is 30th in passing play percentage. He also contributes a lot to his team through his rushing game.
Wilson has a very ragtag receiving corps and throws the ball less than any other QB in the league. Despite this, he has 3 more TD passes and a QBR 19.3 pt higher than Brady. He also provides a rushing boost.I think we can all agree that Peyton, Rodgers and Brees are now superior to him.

I do NOT agree that anyone you mentioned is superior to him. Manning (and possibly Brees) can be considered his peers but in the end Tom Brady will stand head and shoulders above both of them in Canton and in the collective memory of the people
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -
Manning is a better QB. Brady played for better teams.

Brady is no doubt a very good, hall of fame bound qb but hes also a product of that system. They continuously plug and play in new england and a lot of that has to do with his offensive line. Hes terrible under pressure and the times when brady has lost the big games its been because he was feeling the heat all game long. Get him rattled and he folds, the hard part is getting the guy. I also think this thread is ridiculous. Stats dont mean dick if you arent winning, the nfl isnt fantasy football.
AKA SNATCH98 or Rorbotron. The boards glorious admins decided to get cute and change my name to "homotron" Classy group of people. (Lost a bet with Columbus king and got banned for a month) -

I wouldn't agree to that in a million years - Tom Brady is the BEST QB TO HAVE EVER PLAYED THE GAME.

Joe Montana is laughing in his Skechers right now...

Rodgers has had one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL for years. He gets hit like a pinata in the pocket. Yet, he still leads his team to victory, time and again. Look how far GB has plummeted without him.
-
Saying Tom Brady is a system QB is moronic. He's not RGIII, he ain't running an option offense. His system is no different that Peyton Manning's. He's a pocket passer that's great because of his preparation and and his desire to make himself and everybody around him better every practice..

Product of the system? How many different offensive coordinators has he had? Good OL and bad OL. Good receivers and bad receivers. Good running backs and bad running backs. conservative play calling and aggressive play calling.
Me thinks there is sand in thy vagina.

Even in his worst season there's no one Manning or otherwise I'd rather have on the field. It's just what it is.

You don't think, all things equal, that Manning is better?
Tom played for one of the best Head Coaches ever, and played on better teams.
Manning was basically the whole Colts offense. Tom went down, and Cassel still took the team to the playoffs.
The Patriots won those superbowls, not Tom Brady and friends. And they had a little help from spygate tbh.

No I don't think manning is better. Did you see their head to head this year?

A lot of that was just DEN's shitty defense, honestly. They got annihilated in the 2nd half/OT.

Yeah, Irsay even admitted that Peyton would've won more SBs if he had brought in better talent.

Tom Brady owns Manning 10-4 in head to head appearances, has 3 more Superbowl appearances, two more Superbowl rings, and holds the record for most post season wins of all time.
All of this garbage you bring up is not going to last after they both retire. Whether you like it or not, Brady is going to be remembered as the superior quarterback.
Everything the Manning apologists cite as examples of him being better are all the same things people said about Marino, right up until the day he retired.
How long did it last?
Answer: It didn't.
Because whether you like it or hate it, your feeble arguments for Manning over Brady will not hold up for future generations of fans that aren't emotionally invested in picking sides.
Sorry but you lose. It's inevitable. Time will erode Peyton's media driven place in the GOAT conversation, like it did with Marino and Dan Fouts. Once they retire, it's over.
P.S. Peyton Manning's Colts teams were STACKED with talent. It was just dispersed in different areas of the teams. If Peyton didn't fold like a wet paper bag when it mattered most, history might of recorded HIM as having the superior team. The only reason you say it is the opposite is because BRADY wins and Peyton loses.

No he didn't. He didn't say that at all. He said, in a nut shell, that he got rid of Peyton because he couldn't win when it counted, even though they surrounded him with the weapons to give him the most elite offense in football.
Nice misrepresentation.

Oh, and one last thing....
Peyton isn't anything CLOSE to GOAT status because if you try comparing Peyton to Joe Montana you will embarrass yourself. Mr. 1&Done vrs Mr. Four Time is a sad joke of an argument.
The only reason Peyton Manning gets falsely brought into this conversation is because TOM BRADY is compared to Joe Montana, and because people compare Brady and Peyton, being they're the top 2 of their generation, Peyton gets to piggy back on Tom's shoulders into the discussion.
Take Brady out of the conversation and compare Peyton to Joe on Peyton's own merits and reflect on how laughable it is.
Again, time is against you.
Sorry.

Do the eyeball test. Who is better? I don't care about rings or head to head stats. Those are products of teams accomplishments. Manning is a better QB. End of story.
Swap Manning and Brady on those pats and colts teams, and I bet Manning wins just as many superbowls, if not more.

Ok, bro, well in your alternate universe and bizzaro history, where Peyton wins six Superbowls as a Patriot, and Tom Brady sold car insurance, I guess your fantasy dictates Peyton is better.
Maybe you should write a comic book about it.
However, here in the real world, Brady is Mr. Clutch and Peyton has a REPUTATION for sucking in the cold, sucking in the play offs, and sucking when he's not just stat-compiling against an NFL bottom feeder in October.
Eye test says Brady.
Eye test was pretty clear two weeks ago if you missed it,

I think you're being a little of a Patriot homer. Brady and Manning are both great qbs, both lock first ballot HOFers. I don't necessarily buy the "I've got more rings than you do" argument that makes him a better qb. Montana has the rings, Farve has the stats- so who's better? You can argue that one till you're blue in the face. It will be the same way with Manning and Brady.
Incidentally I didn't miss that game nice luck out on a gift from the Donkeys in OT.
