yeah and he started 6-0 against him. And was 1-3 when the AFC was on the line. Not domination IMO
The home QB won in 2006 (postseason), 2007, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2013 (postseason), 2014, 2015, and 2015 (postseason).
Nine consecutive wins.
Manning may have won the last 3 AFCCG battles but had the better squad and home field each time. When the Patriots were the higher seed, Manning choked in 2007 and 2014. Also choked in 2012 with the #1 seed.
sure everything you said it’s true. But its not evidence Brady dominated.
That is an interesting, disingenuous way to cherry pick one of his playoff wins over Manning out of the picture....yeah and he started 6-0 against him. And was 1-3 when the AFC was on the line. Not domination IMO
For that matter, LJ has never beaten ANYBODY who was leading the Ravens at halftime.Seeing this comparison a lot. I couldn't disagree more.
The reason why Brady/Fivehead was a rivalry for the ages is that it was polarizing. Brady had the wins (including some big ones over Fivehead's team in the playoffs) and rings. Fivehead had the stats and MVPs. So who was better? That was the debate. This debate went right to the core of what "greatness" means in sports - does wins trump stats? Manning had unbelievable stats but couldn't win the big ones very often and when he did he was not really a key part of those wins. Brady is the winningest QB in history - until this year he had Bill Belichick as coach, and no doubt that was a benefit. And so on. There wasn't really a true consensus in that debate no matter what happened on the field.
Not seeing any of that with Mahomes/Jackson. They've never met in the playoffs. They both have an MVP. Mahomes has a ring and Jackson is 0-fer in the playoffs. Last night was probably the biggest game in this series and LJ's team got torched. LJ has never beaten the Chiefs as a starter. Nobody in their right mind would say LJ is a better QB than Mahomes. Is it even a rivalry at all? Doesn't look like it to me. Mahomes/Jackson to me is a lot closer to Brady/Ben than Brady/Manning

Brady made 9 Super Bowls and Manning made 4. That is the domination. The fact that Manning had 9 one and done's and failed to play against some of the more dominant Patriots teams is not a plus in his column. And every statistical advantage that Manning had early in his career were closed by Brady by the time he retired.
It is weaksauce because, besides cherry picking one of the Brady wins out of the picture, basically you give Manning a pass for all those years he just wasn't good enough to make it to the AFCCG.not really. When the afc was on the line, Manning was 3-1 against him. 3-2 overall in the playoffs. This is domination?
