Huh? Everything you just posted was completely irrelevant to what you quoted. You aren't the smartest knife in the drawer, eh?



nice try. you fail.

LOL at you completely ignoring the second half of the post that addressed the quoted part.

completely absurd logic to have.

what about the fact that Brees threw a few less passes that year and was also more accurate than Manning was? Brees completed over 71% of his passes and Manning was at 68%.

also if you watched Manning this season then you will know that at least 15 of his touchdown passes either came during garbage time or were stat padding 1 and 2 yard TD passes whenever they could have easily ran the ball.

point being ... the touchdown record is no more impressive than the yardage record is. the only reason that you're saying that the touchdown record is more impressive is because it benefits Manning.

Someone should review every one of Brees' passes for the record breaking year. (Make certain no screens or swing passes were laterals).

This is incredibly stupid also. Points are king, because you know, the entire objective of an offense is to SCORE POINTS.


when you're up 3, 4, and even 5 scores in the final minutes of the game and Manning is still out there throwing 2-yard touchdown passes .... that's called stat padding.

the record is impressive regardless, but don't try and act as if his touchdown record is just so much more impressive than the yardage record. they're both impressive. neither is that much more special than the other. it can be argued both ways.

Great response. Both accomplishments are greatly noteworthy with very few years apart.
