I think he's capable of playing into his 40s, but I'm not sure if Peyton is gonna do that. I can see him hanging it up when he's 38 or 39.

And you never know with injuries.

Other than beating up on Jacksonville in their last super bowl run Brady has not been anything close to Mr. Clutch

We can talk about this until the end of time. But if you plan on taking this argument towards shortcomings in the playoffs, it won't work in your favor.

Giving Brady's current rate of playoff performances within a few years it should be a non-issue especially if Peyton can add one more ring to his finger.

Given Manning's current rate of playoff performances, it's hard to imagine him winning another ring. We can make "if" assumptions all day, but that's purely speculation and entirely worthless in a discussion such as this.

Yes this discussion that appears 10 times a year is clearly imperative. If you are going to give someone a contract these what if's will play out. If you think Manning will perform give him more money. Speculation is entirely worthwhile.

Tom Brady.
i'd measure QB's by SuperBowl Trophys and Brady leads it by 2

brees puts up better stats, also lead his team to the superbowl, had a worse deal than brady and his deal also runs out

Im not saying it should be brees but I think you could/should put him there as one of the options

thanks you kindly but...wait. why do you hate to agree with me?

[WinslowBodden]

One of the younger qbs will get a huge contract that will trump whatever either of these two make next year.

You really, really need to work on your debate style. Saying "LOLZ YOUR TEAMZ SUCKZZZZ" in every single reply just doesn't work. Your obsession with making fun of Michigan is a bit scary.

Dom Rhodes in the Super Bowl- 21 carries, 113 yards, 5.4 ypc, 1 TD, 1 reception, 8 yards.
Joseph Addain in the Super Bowl- 19 carries, 77 yards, 4.1 ypc, 10 receptions, 66 yards.

That's 40 carries for 190 yards, 1 touchdown. 11 receptions for 74 yards between the two of them. That comes out to 4.75 yards per carry and 6.7 yards per catch.

Yes an being a giant homer to a school you never went (not even in your own country) is in the realm of sane. My point was brady's postseason mystique or aura isn't there anymore.

Just so we're on the same page, I am a native of Canada, but a resident of the United States. Great counter-point, though. It really made a lot of sense.

What part of this is setting the world on fire? Those are good but not great numbers.

If you're going to keep your head in the sand, we might as well end this conversation. Averaging north of five yards per carry in the Super Bowl would be a pretty ******* good game. But yeah, let's give the MVP to Peyton Manning for his pedestrian game because of his regular-season accomplishments.

I'm sure you'll come back with something incredibly witty like "LOLZ YOUR TEAM SUCKZ", but arguing with you is like talking to a brick wall. I'm done with this ****. By the way, it's a tad odd to have a shirtless dude as your sig. Just sayin'.

Oh yeah, so 200 yards rushing in the Super Bowl isn't great at all.

that nonsense sounds like what a child would say to someone who just owned them in every sense of the discuss, so he/she has to say something that requires .1 thought.

Also, when can you give 100% of the credit to the qb in recent SBs? This is why people say "defense wins championships" because it has been proven over and over again that the better defense has come away with the win

Ya odd...where in america is necrophilia considered a social norm? Promoting a guy having sex with a corpse in your sig. Looks like we have a Norman Bates here.

So saying Brady has 3 rings to Peyton's 1 isn't saying he is responsible for them? Kthxtryagain

I was with you all the way until you turned into a hypocrite lol.


Anyways, I think we could go back and forth on any Manning / Brady subject until they retire and then for another 40+ years. It is fun to gauge people's opinions in these threads but it's hard to figure out anything valuable inside them.

But if you're asking my opinion, I've always liked Manning more (maybe he's just a little bit more charismatic or something, I don't know) but I wouldn't be surprised or upset if Brady got more money.

[Halsey]

People say the Pats didn't take a step back after Brady got injured. Really? They followed up an 18-1 season, in which they nearly went undefeated, by going 11-5 and missing the playoffs with Cassel.

See, and now you are just reinforcing the point that when you can't form an argument you just return to ad hominem attacks.

[Vikes99ej]

Peyton Manning, because he has been the best player in the league since God knows when. He's also the face of the NFL.

[killxswitch]

There's no way I can be objective in this discussion.
