Default Why Len....why?

We all have our favorite writers. I've always like Pasquerelli nd always felt like he was fair to the Pats and knowledgeable.

So he picks espn.com's All-Pro team himself. He picked Pey-a-ton as his QB over Brady. Fair enough, I guess. But then he goes on to write this:

"Manning remains the premeir passer and field general of this generation."

What does Brady have to do to finally earn the CONSENSUS respect he deserves? I don't get it. It just freakin baffles me beyond words. I shouldn't care but...

How about win a Super Bowl when your defense sucks, and you have to score every possession just to win. Brady welcome to Peytons world of yester year.

Yeah, now that their D is so good, I guess he's fresh out of excuses if he doesn't deliver now that it's all been laid out on a silver platter for him. I actually like your point there. We may get some resolution to this debate very soon after all.

I guess the tuck rule didn't help Brady out. He's been spoiled with a defense in NE. Peyton just got one.*News Flash* Peyton is not a choker New England fans.

You're right, he's a HUGE choker. That "didn't have a defense" excuse has been BS from day one.

The tuck rule was an actual rule on the books so you can pissandmoan all you want about that. But that aside, he did win two more. But again, you said it best, Peyton has a date with destiny this year and if he doesn't deliver well, you know...

Do or die. I like it.

Being ranked in the bottom 5 in Defense is Bullish?
Put Tom Brady on the 03' and 04' Colts we don't even sniff the playoffs not alone a berth to the Super Bowl. A choker is a person who cannot perform under pressure. In Peyton's third season with the Colts we play Miami in the playoffs it's tied at 28 if my memory serves me correct.

A minute and change left on the clock. Peyton drives us down the field against a Dolphins team with a good defense and put us in Field goal range. Vandy misses the game winning field goal we go to overtime and lose because our defense can't stop the run. The credit goes to the Pats for putting together a good game plan along with the wind and snow. Your coming to the Dome this year...so tell big Willie to start taking his acting lessons so he can fake his injuries again.

I respect the 01' and 04' Pats. The 03' Pats the one who beat us for the AFC championship cheated their way to the SB they stole that game away from my beloved Colts. I blame the refs more than the Pats though.

And how did they steal it away? Because they weren't able to play in their little cocoon on the plains?
