They also beat what, 7 or 8 of the 11 other teams that made the playoffs?
Yup, and this year we played Miami twice, Indy, SD, Pitt and Ari. So 6 games against playoff teams instead of 7 or 8, including both teams that went to the Super Bowl.
I'll concede that the schedule last year might have been tougher overall (if there were even a way to quantify it), but the difference is not so vast as you can factor it into a Brady/Cassel comparison accurately.
The way I see it, Brady is about 5 games better than Cassel, and in the NFL that is still a REMARKABLE difference.
