And how many QB's would have led the Pats out last night in that weather and delivered a precision demolition job only a season off a knee reconstruction or is that forgotten? Not Manning that is for sure...he has always played in a nice dome remember. There will always be a divide amongst these two but this forum has always had the ESPN, NFL Network mentality about the two ie the glamorous throwing arm of Manning means more. Ask some current players not in their Divisions and you will be surprised who favours Brady. I also know who sleeps better at night with their record in the game (and next to the lovely Giselle)seeing as both guys are ferocious competitors.
Much has been written on this and if you bother to dig for the more "intelligent" sportswriter you will find some insightful views and arguments. I happen to like this one (not that its the ultimate view)as it is written by the man who covers the Colts and Manning in Indy itself and is a well respected journalist in that town covering the Colts. http://www.indystar.com/article/20101121/SPORTS03/11210353/1034/SPORTS15 One thing I would add there is still a bit to be written about both QB's but as it stands right now history will be kinder to Brady imo.. |

Also worth noting, Manning doesn't have his coaches filming the opposition practising Defence. HTH

Ace High getting it right yet again.

Saw him in the flesh, pure poetry. |

I think the season Cassell played for the Pats answers the question to some degree. though the question is pretty much impossible to answer, but if I had to pick one I'd take Manning because I think it's more likely.

lori that pats team with cassell would of been hard to stop if they had got in that season
|
|
By:
That's my point Harry. Cassel's no mug, but he was one of the best QBs in the NFL for a season when stuck behind the Pats line.
|
|
By:
yes no doubt about it lori...knew what point you were making just thought i would add how good they were as a team....you look for a team with momentum and they certainly had it....when the pocket collapsed he made a lot of big plays rushing which thay have never had with brady.

By:
Yeah that 07 and 08 O when Moss worked hard was incredible good, sure Cassel had a great season but they still lost 29 passing touchdowns and 1200yds from the 07 season with Cassel...and Brady was sacked 21 times 07, Cassel 47 times 08...

By:
manning rarely gets sacked,i find mobile QBs get sacked a lot more as they dont need protecting as much as someone who isnt able to avoid a sack,rodgers and big ben most sacked QBs in the last few years,i take it cutler is streets ahead this year?

intersting what this debate would have been in 1998, ie manning v leaf. probably about 50/50 but if you're going to chuck money at a 21 yr old who buys a big house in la jolla and marries a charger cheerleader.......touch of the george best about it
Ryan Leaf.....the biggest never was in Sport.........EVER!!!!! |

cannot spelllllllllllllllllll

First off, jamarcus russell was a bigger bust than Leaf. And secondly, dont tarnish george bests name like that. He led a team to the european cup.

By:
think that brady is good, but would personally defo say that peyton is the better qb of the 2.
|

By:
Manning is in decline. Gotta be Brady.

By:
