If this poll were done after 2004, even though we won the Super Bowl, Manning would get all of those votes. Record setting seasons have been known to skew poll results.
I bet a few years ago when Manning broke that record, Manning would have been a landslide pick too.
I dont read anything ESPN or any New York/Boston media has to say. There are a few exceptions. But these writers are so full of themselves its ridiculous.
I suppose if Manning were to break the TD record again this season they would dub him the King of Kings next or some BS.
This was a poll among head coaches, not ESPN writers...
I bet these same NFL coaches wouldve said the same thing for the past 5 years.
Dont fool yourself. Coaches can be influenced too.
There was a poll done during last year's training camp, ask the players coaches and league personnels bunch questions, one of them is which QB other then their own would they choose. Tom brady got 65%, and Manning got 35%, that was after the year manning won the superbowl. I think those people know whose better, doesn't matter if brady own those record or not.

Whenever I see one of these things, I still flash back for a second or two to the fact that the guy was a sixth round pick. All time best making the most of what you have, if not all time best QB. I think I'd still take Montana, but another ring for Brady might change that.
I disagree with a lot of the comments in here. MOST coaches IMO would have voted for Brady and his 3 rings in 2005. There are NO DOUBT some coaches who have never won, who won't attach greatness to winning, but most of them don't last.
The 6, IMO, are Dungy (and i cant blame him) and 5 other guys who never win and think its not their fault, its the hand they were dealt. I'd guess Herman Edwards is one, Marvin Lewis may be another, Norv Turner definitely, Del Rio may be one as well, Andy Reid likely.
Ok, where are the Indy fans now?
