The G.O.A.T.

The Manning brothers and Andrew Luck are so good because of genes. Archie was a great QB who played on really crappy teams in New Orleans.Oliver was a good QB who also played on pitiful teams in Houston.
Brady's fought for everything he got. State champion in California, became the starter because of injury. 1 college offer, Michigan where he was 3rd string. Promoted because of injury. This was the case every year in Ann Arbor. Drafter low, not a starter injury gave him a chance again. He wins at every level but he had to work for it. I hate him but I respect him. He works hard.

The 2011 colts fully tanked to get luck.
50+ NFL players all tanked to draft a rookie QB? I dont buy that

You only needed the Coach/owner to tank.....and they did.

Brady is 3-0 when he gets away with cheating 0-2 after the cheat tactic is exposed... I don't care about either of these teams but it wouldn't surprise me in the least to see this Seahawks D make Brady's asshole hurt.

Hi. Basically starting in the super bowl era players were beginning to be bigger, faster and stronger than the previous decades. If thinking those so called "champinships" from 70 years ago make you feel better about the ineptness of our franchise for the last thirty years go for it, no need to get mad. Tell Ergo I said hi!
Well, you are wrong. You apparently were not alive when all that went down.
As I said, players in the 70s were much, much closer to the size, strength speed of the players in the 50s than they are to today's players. That is an uncontroverted fact. Players, especially linemen did not to get like 300 pounds until the mid 80s.
Also, the nature of the game changed far far in favor of the offense. There was no 5 yard rule, no can't hit the QB rule etc. etc.
Otto Graham and Joe Montana were about the same height/weight.
The Browns last champion qb, Frank Ryan was 6'3". Pretty average for today's QBs.

Brady had a great comeback but it was won on a browns - like bungle.

Because an undrafted CB from West Alabama made a great play?
That's why I don't play the ring game.
If Lynch punches it in like everyone expected, then Brady hasn't won a SB in 11 years and only has one more ring than Russell Wilson.
Pete Carroll allows his offensive coordinator to call an insipid play and Brady is now the Greatest ever.
He was, of course, on the sideline when this was all happening to him.

--I wanted Seattle to win to just not to have hear how great the Patriots are from all the Patriots fans here. There are no Seahawk fans in Florida.

I think it would be a lot less pleasant listening to Richard Seymour and Marshawn Lynch running their fat punk mouths for a year...

They don't live here either. But every guy I sit next to in a bar down here is Jimmy from Brockton or Tommy from Taunton telling me how how Brady walks on water and the ol' "How did Cleveland ever let Belichick leave?"
We didn't. Assholes.

Actually the league should have told Art Modell to go fuck himself and sell the team. Then who knows?

^^this.
The ring discussion is media driven sensationalism. Brady, all by himself, won the Super Bowl. He's the one who picked off Wilson, he blocked for himself and also caught all of his passes.
This isn't basketball, and if it was Brady would be terrible at it.

It was Brady's effort that gave his team the opportunity to be in a position to take advantage of the mistake the other team made.
I agree that the "ring game" is not the be all and end all of deciding who the GOAT is......but it is an important factor.
Winning in the clutch.....guiding a team to a championship or to the cusp of a championship is important.
But,no, winning this one didn't elevate Brady above the other candidates in my mind. I already had him up there.
If you just want to go on basic innate pure passing ability....put Jeff George and Jay Cutler into your mix.
Winning does matter.

You are exactly right. Tell them that the official agreement that created the Baltimore Ravens occurred on February 9, 1996.
Bill Belichick was fired as the coach of the Baltimore Ravens on February 15, 1996.
So, BB was the HC of the NYJ for one day....and HC of the Ravens for one week.

Yes, winning matters. Manning, Montana and Graham won a hell of lot of footballs games. I look at entire careers. Brady had a good game, threw two interceptions, but brought the team back, played steady. But if he lost, if Seattle scored there, I wouldn't of held it against him. He is still the same QB he was before Wilson threw that interception. A damn good one. But not my GOAT.

So you don't draft Steelers or Ravens players for you Fantasy Team. Do you not sell houses to Patriots fans?

I sell many houses to Patriot fans.
That's why I don't want them winning because I have to hear about it.
Plus they are in the AFC.
Seattle wins .... doesn't change my life.
Patriots win ... Blah blah blah Brady, blah blah.
And then we move into training camp and the Red Sox .... Blah blah Sox Blah blah.
I prefer to remember the Patriots and Red Sox from the 20th century ... painfully tortured (like us) ... When the Browns were the Browns and all was right with the world.
I didn't have to worry about drafting Ravens cause there weren't any fucking Ravens. Not much fantasy football for that matter.
Ahh, those were the days.
1994. I was blissfully single, living in Florida and the Browns were in the playoffs. I bame Modell for everything that has happened since.
