Peyton Manning 2008 - Tom Brady 2009 - Through 5 games
 
After looking at these stats you might want to sit back a bit and relax,not saying it will turn out as well for Brady as it did for the reigning MVP in 2008 Peyton Manning but it COULD - So lets relax and stop the Brady sucks remarks after seeing these stats which are really quite similar at this point of the Colts 2008 Season with Manning off to a slow start and the 2009 season with Brady doing similar.

2008 league MVP Peyton Manning after 5 weeks of play

Colts Record 3-2

Manning's passer rating on average of the 5 games - 62.3%

Manning 8 TDs - 5 INTs

Manning was 115 Passes completed out of 182 attempts - Which equals 67 incomplete passes

Manning passed for 1,302 yards or 260.2 yards per game average

2009 Tom Brady after 5 weeks of play

Patriots Record 3-2

Brady's passer rating on average of the 5 games - 61.2%

Brady 6 TDs - 2 INTs

Brady was 127 Passes completed out of 207 attempts - Which equals 80 incomplete passes

Brady passed for 1,344 yards or 266.4 yards per game average



So in comparison to the 2 star QBs you can see some stats that are eerily similar between Peyton's 2008 MVP season and Brady's start to the 2009 season in fact going by this Brady has more yards passing and a lower INT rate than Manning after 5 games between these two seasons.

Like I said,it will take quite an effort for Brady to do what Peyton did in his turnaround last season but if any QB can do it,Its Brady

Most Colts fan were not throwing Manning under the bus after 5 weeks...why should we do it with Brady? - We do know Brady is better, right? :)

I really dont think you can compare these two and say brady will be on mannings 08 pace, there are so many other factors, the team around each QB, the schedule, etc.
the colts won their last 8 games, in 08 i do not see that for the patriots especially during that november gauntlet.

But the Pats can still win 9-10 of their last 11 games. The Pats may not have 8 games in a row against very winnable opponents, but the Pats have 8 games against mediocre to average (at best) teams left. Also the Colts were 4-3 after seven games. The Pats should be 5-2. The Pats still have the Titans, Bucs, Bills, Panthers, Jags, Dolphins (twice), and Texans on their schedule. Plus the Pats' defense has been playing better than the Colts defense was during Manning's struggles. And don't forget the Pats had their toughest gauntlet already with a four game stretch of good teams.

No you can't make a direct comparison. BUT, this is pointing out how absurdly crazy people are to be throwing in the towel already.

Thanks for the post Patsfaninpa

Surprisingly (given what each team has delivered) Colts fans are better and more understanding of a bad game, week, month than Pats fans.

The interesting thing is that there was no apparent evidence that Manning was going to get it straightened out either. Really a very eerie similarity.

Colts had a brutal schedule too last year. Ours is not SO bad here on out, I see 2 very tough games (though it could only be 1 if NO falls off) and the rest are good/mediocre teams or worse. Once Brady is back in form, I think we are favorites in each game assuming the defense does not regress from their 14-17 ppg performance thus far. And no reason to think it would especially with Mayo back and BB's history here.

Hopefully he'll turn the corner. This team will be scary good when he's back to his normal throwing ways.
