This is really crazy, if Pro Football Reference's indoor/outdoor split is accurate.
Percentage of games played in dome/retractable roof:
Brees: 52.7%
Manning: 48.9%
Brady: 8.2%
So ok interesting topic. Here are their career passer ratings in domes, outdoors, and in retroroof stadiums (I think these are regular season only):
Dome
- Brady: 14 g, 109.0 rating
- Brees: 128 g, 104.2 rating
- Manning: 92 g, 99.1 rating
Outdoors
- Brady: 247 g, 96.9 rating
- Brees: 125 g, 91.2 rating
- Manning: 136 g, 94.0 rating
Retroof
- Brady: 8 g, 100.4 rating
- Brees: 11 g, 89.9 rating
- Manning: 38 g, 99.2 rating
OVERALL
- Brady: 270 g, 97.7 rating
- Brees: 265 g, 97.7 rating
- Manning: 266 g, 96.5 rating
So even though the overall passer ratings are very very close, Brady is substantially better than either of them in every conceivable field situation. The only reason it's close at all is because the other two have played so many more games in domes.
