How about Super Bowl Championships, Einstein?

I guess Dan Fouts was a better QB than Joe Montana in your universe.

 

[shmessy]

BTW, Drew Bledsoe holds more of those individual passing marks (most completions before 2:35 pm on rainy days) even in the same franchise!

BFD.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Please no more. This is beating the proverbial dead horse.

A Super Bowl is a team accomplishment. Now what has Brady accomplished individually on his own? Not much...

Ohhhhhh, I see. You've come to an NFL board by accident.

The tennis websites are in another area.

How about playoff statistics?
How convenient that you leave out Manning's pedestrian playoff numbers. The guy chokes under pressure.

So Manning just threw the ball, and the rest of the Colts just sat there and watched it go downfield?

The probowl receivers had no impact...? The great O/L (when they are not under the bus) didn't help?

slow day in kindergarten perhaps?

Hey mods--can we move this tripe to the visitors' locker room, where it belongs?

Done. Ten characters

(although kids like "liter of cola" believe it should be done with just one)

Now that Manning has won a Super Bowl and the last 3 games vs Brady, you can argue that he may be better, but to argue that Brady hasn't accomplished anything individually is as asinine as it gets. Football is a team sport, no kidding the Super Bowl is a team accomplishment. Both of these quarterbacks are great, both of their teams would be screwed without them (no disrespect meant to Sorgi and Cassel fans) and both are first ballot Hall of Famers.

I thought we passed that point already?

I'll say this slow so it might sink in.... Football. Is. A. TEAM. sport.

i'm confused, how exactly is Brady supposed to hike the ball, block for himself, run the route, and catch the ball by himself.
