At age 37 he's still the best QB in the NFL, and probably has been for the last 10 years.

He's lead his team to two Super Bowls and won one of them. The second time he did it with very average players around him.

No other player has ever been harder to defend. Even his greatest rival said he was the best ever.

Yeah he's not perfect, but no football player ever will be. He's as close as it comes though.

Drew Brees >>> Peyton Manning

The Super Bowl HTH matchup says it all.

I thought the consensus was championships.


We need guidelines.

Johnny Unitas might have a little something to say about that.

He's been beaten in the playoffs by:

Steve McNair (1999)*
Jay Fiedler (2000)
Chadwick Pennington (2002)*
Tom Brady (2003)*
Tom Brady (2004)*
Ben Roethilisberger (2005)*
Philip Rivers (2007)*
Philip Rivers (2008)*
Drew Brees (2009)*
Mark Sanchez (2010)*
Joe Flacco (2012)*

* - denotes that Peyton was outperformed by opposing QB

My top 5 QB's of all time:

Joe Montana
Tom Brady
Peyton Manning
John Elway
Drew Brees

Pretty amazing that he's outperforming all of the other elite QBs coming off of the four neck surgeries at his age. Last season he was better than all of them save Rodgers, but it was much closer. This season he's outperforming all of them by a large margin so far.

Even I hate this argument, and I don't mean to take anything away from him, but throughout his entire career, Manning got to take advantage of being in divisions of teams that were never consistent and just downright horrible.

Holds up flame shield.
