tOfficial "Tom Brady & the New England Patriots" Superthread

[HammerDown]

"When Tom Brady gets pressure and when you're man-to-man and bumping those guys and making it hard for him to throw, he sees ghosts," Clark said Monday, via Comcast SportsNet New England. "Even when guys aren't around him, even when he's not about to be sacked, when his clock goes off in his head that the ball should be out, we'll see him duck, we'll see him flinch. When you get Tom Brady doing that, the whole New England Patriots mystique goes away."

The division will be completely different next year and it will be a pleasure to witness.

Brady getting worse with age, while Manning only gets better with age.

I am pasting this from another thread, there it is all to enjoy!

I hope Manning doesn't look at this Forum, I'd hate for him to get a big head or anything.

Peyton Manning is playing the position at an unheralded level and Brady's skills continue to painfully diminish, costing his team a crucial loss to a divisional rival. Brady was especially selfish today, and that's what bothers me.

For me they are equal. Best of their generation. It would be interesting to see what Brady would do if he went to another team with the skills the Broncos have. I guess we will never know

Manning's forehead is longer than Brady's longest completed pass today.

Umm, the Jets played a great game. Does that count?

He would continue to over/underthrow those receivers like he's been doing all season with the Patriots.

They had to. It was "their Super Bowl."

Both are great QB's and picking one to me is pretty hard to do.

On one hand you have to love Payton Manning because of what he does in the regular season. He's done it in Indy and he is doing it in Denver now. When he got his neck surgery and all of that I thought it was over, I didn't think he'd have a chance to ever come back because that was a serious injury but hell he keeps on doing it week in and week out. The problem with him is that when it comes down to that time where he needs a big win (playoffs) he just can't do it. This year it might be different but as a regular season QB it is Payton day in and day out.

Tom Brady is great in the playoffs or was he has been going downhill for a little bit and it pains me to say that. The problem that I have is that Brady has been great without wideouts for a long time, the only great wideout he has ever had was Randy Moss and he had him for only a couple years and that was it. Yes, Gronkowski is great but he needs to be on the field and Aaron Hernadez was great as well but we all know what happened with that. Brady, is still good but you can watch games now and passes that he'd make a couple years ago he doesn't make now.

As for Manning he still makes the throws that we saw him making years ago.

Manning is like a fine wine. He gets better with age, while Brady is like a beer that goes flat with time!

Speculation is the worst of all evils.

 

[Dude]

To be honest I don't give a crap who is better.
The Broncos are a better team this year than the Pats, that's for sure.
When they play in late November people's heads are going to explode!

 

[HammerDown]

Speculation is the worst of all evils.

I would argue that that award goes to Brett Favre.

 

[cowboycolors]

Brady while good has always been over rated IMHO

he would not have 1 of those rings if not for the tuck rule that was in place at the time
