thanks. i voted. but, notice that manning isn't even on the ballot for "Best QB of the Super Bowl era!" Brady is on that ballot and is currently second behind Montana. P. Manning isn't even on it!

 

[JoePats]

Brady and Manning are even "today" (according to the writers/editors of USA Today), but Brady is ranked higher in the Super Bowl era. So the people who vote Brady ahead of Manning today seem to think more of him "big picture" than those that voted Manning ahead "today."

I know! I love that.

Goes a long way to help with the Tommy vs. Peyton = "Greatest QB of all time".

Good stuff!

Everyone, VOTE!

Yea, not that it was real scientific, but the initial "Ballot" was assembled by Writers from USA Today. So they obviously feel that Peyton is not in that club yet.

I was looking thru the polls and was shocked to find the Vinateri loses to Morten Anderson for best kicker in the super bowl era. Are you kidding me.

I must admit I was thinking Gary Anderson and the miss he had in the Vikings Falcons NFC title game.
But just to still put up a few arguments. Morten kicked indoors, never had a walk off super bowl kick, and the kick in the snow was just so legandary.

Career field goal percentage Vinatieri 82% and Anderson 79%

In conclusion I guess it wasn't as crazy and shocking as I thought but I still think Vinateri has to get the nod.

It's almost the Peyton vs. Brady arguement - Stats vs. The Man.

As Morten has ZERO Super Bowls and Adam has Four - However Morten's no's are pretty crazy - He's also like 72 years old and was drafted by Paul Brown.

Sweet. :singing::singing:

 

[Bostonian1962]

I'm more dumbfounded, Mike Webster, is leading John Hannah for Interior Lineman. John Hannah, IMHO, is the best linemen period to ever play the game. That's not homerism, that is a fact. MY fact.

Good point, that one is a joke too.

That's right so VOTE!

Bill would tell you to take each vote one vote at a time and to know the situation and that he won't comment on the pre-vote lineup. So VOTE!

 

[ScottieC]

Tommy is still in second.

[ScottieC]

Almost there - Keep it up. Vote for Tommy.

Yup, I hate internet polls as well, but I hate Manning more. VOTE!!!!!
