BradyisGod. Payton manning played in 16 games that season, I know because he is second to Farve in consecutive starts. He may not have played much but he played.
good question....but thats why ppl dont usually care about the rating ohh so much...
Even so it's balanced out, possibly sliding much in favor of Brady, by the fact that he played something like one outdoor game after Halloween. He had no games impacted by weather, whereas Brady had several.
While not related directly, I'll bet that this Patriot offense doesn't score 3 pts in a playoff game like that Colt offense.
The 3 factors that determine the passer rating are yards per attempt, TD's per attempt, and INT's per attempt.
Manning beat him out on two of those categories. Of all the QB's to throw for over 40 TD's though, Brady is the only one to play his home games outdoors in a cold weather climate. Marino played in Miami and Warner & Manning both played in domes.
It makes a big difference. Consider the fact that before the weather turned, Brady's rating was around 139.
Putting Brady in a dome would be like putting Babe Ruth or a juiced up Barry Bonds in Coors field.
