This isn't a commentary on Reiss. However, the way the media is already reacting (by retracting the "Manning GOAT" assertion after he choked tonight) is exactly what I've been complaining about for the past two weeks. The media is about as fickle as it gets, latching onto the Flavor of the Month. I really just wish everyone would wait until these two retire to compare them and then decide who is the best.

"Best coach in NFL history" - Tom Brady

i agree with kon. i dont think anyone ever thought manning was a better clutch player than brady.

and brady has made his fair share of mistakes in games. threw a big int in the end zone in the super bowl v panthers.

manning is great, brady is great. you get either one of them your franchise wins for a decade and doubles in value

Patriot Missile

I couldn't of said it better myself. The part that people tend to forget about 07 is Brady did lead his team to a lead late in the 4th quarter with a td to Moss. The defense just couldn't hold.

I feel bad for Manning (just a little bit ), but that was just an epic choke that made the difference in the game. I'd like to think that Brady would not have made a throw like that in a game that big, but I don't know. Part of the reason this year was so frustrating for Brady IMO is that he basically had Moss double and triple covered and when we lost Wes he had NO ONE he trusted to be where they were supposed to be when he threw the ball. Turnovers are the name of the game and Brady just didn't have anyone he could rely on once Welker went down.

No doubt about it that Manning had a superior team to the Patriots around him this year, but in the end he coughed up a hairball in the biggest one of them all and lost the game for his team. Beautiful.

If not for the utter ineptitude of the 2006-07 Bears, Pay-me would have ZILCH to show for all the ballwashing he gets. This definitely isn't the end for Peyton and Colts, but it's a good start, and what a beautiful night it was for the Saints and all of us who hate Dungy, the Colts and their idiotic fans.

This is the best article I've seen in my life.
I agree with Kontradiction on this one. If Brady is playing well, he is the best ever, then, number 18(like they say), is the best players this league as ever seen, if Brady isn't playng well.
Manning is good in regular season, ONLY!

Deus Irae

Every regular season, Manning wows the ballwashers, both in the media and elsewhere. It takes the playoffs for them to get their reminders of the true order of the QB pyramid.

Though I don't think you're getting me wrong on this (you and I are usually on the same wavelength), I think I should clarify that, by the time they finish their careers, Brady will be looked at as the better QB. By a comfortable margin, I might add.
