Hopefully today helped to further solidify this ridiculous debate over which star quarterback is "better." Every analyst agrees that Tom Brady is the guy in a clutch situation or to win you one big game. How is that not enough to be considered the best? I don't know. But even despite that, the three pathetic interceptions thrown at critical times tonight by Peyton Manning helped to reestablish the Patriots' dominance over the Colts. We're back. It feels so right. It's time to party like it's 2001 through 2005 baby.
hellll ya bitches Tom Brady is my homeboy, DGASKLBGAWEHASKLDBFqkwf'aksbdjfak;jsdbfas;dhbfv YEAAAAA HAHAHAHA WOOOOOOO! GET AT ME BITCHES IM ON FIAAAAAAAAAH

ReplyDeleteManning>Brady
I think it's a fair debate.
ReplyDeleteVery premature to say this is anything like '01-'05. The Pats are still really bad at alot of things (see defense). Don't jump to conclusions so quickly. (Like when you said the Pats offense was worse without Randy Moss... lol at that now.) This is a team thats really good at finding a way to win, but nothing like the dominance of the '04 Pats.
Peyton is easily the better career quarterback and has more game winning drives than Brady. One interception could be blamed solely on him in this game and he passed for 200 more yards than Brady. The fact that the Colts cant stop the run at all is the reason the Pats won this game if you watched the game you would know that Brady wasnt much of an impact. Manning past for his 2nd highest total of the season against the Pats horrific pass defense (2nd worst in the league).
ReplyDeleteWhose fault were Peyton's other 2 interceptions? Which one was his fault, the one that blew the game when he overthrew his receiver or the one where he missed Pierre Garcon by 50 feet? Are you really gonna pull the yardage card as if passing yards mean anything in this day and age? I guess you're right. Kyle Orton, Carson Palmer, Eli Manning, Joe Flacco, and Donovan McNabb all have more passing yards than Brady... they must be better. Guess who lost his team the game Sunday? Peyton Manning did. Guess who had no turnovers Sunday? Tom Brady. Guess who's 8-4 against Peyton Manning? Tom Brady. You're going to blame this on the Colts inability to stop the run? Like when the Patriots went three and out running the ball all fourth quarter, which gave Peyton a chance to win the game? You say Peyton is "easily" the better quarterback, but I see one ring on his finger. How long are we going to keep saying Brady wins because of his defense? To quote you, he has a "horrific" defense. If that's the case, why the hell didn't Peyton beat us?
ReplyDelete-Drob, face it the D is bad.
ReplyDelete-Brady led Patriot TEAMS are 8-4 vs. the COLTS with Peyton starting. It isn't Brady v Manning.
The debate is fair, there is no right answer. It depends on what you look for in a quarterback. But what i can't stand is the whole circumstances debate. If Brady was on the Colts, and he was slinging it 40 times, maybe he would have thrown a couple picks too. Maybe if Peyton Manning was on the 07 Pats he throw 60 touchdowns. Well that didn't happen. We can only judge on what did happen. We can't judge the Brady vs. Manning debate on whose run defense is better, it's stupid.
My two cents. Manning is probably better. That dude scares the shit out of me when he has the ball. I was 100% sure that he was going to score a TD on the final drive sunday, and that INT was more the exceptiion than the rule. Manning is the king of the comeback drive. He hasn't done it in as high profile situations as Brady has, but last year when he won the MVP he had 7 comeback victories. I don't really feel like Brady is going to put it in the endzone every drive, and put up 300+ passing yards a game.
That being said, I'd rather have Brady on my team because he has shown he can play every way possible. '01 he was a ball control, Trent Dilfer type. '07 they ask him to throw 60+% of the time, he rewrites the record books. Now they ask him to play different every week. Verses the steelers he was slinging it all over the place 4 total TD's. Then this sunday, he went back to short passing and ball control. He can be great any way you want him to be.
...And Brady looks way cooler doing it.
...And Manning is a pussy.
