Or his mediocre last few seasons in the league (except one good season in between)? The last time I checked he had only one Super Bowl win and one less trip than Manning to the big game. Also Favre was known for throwing the ball to the wrong team in big games.

So why does Peyton Manning face undue criticism and inquiry over his post season record? Why is Peyton held to a higher standard than all other quarterbacks?

Favre didnt know when to quit. Maning does, but Peyton's still got it. Favre was good enough to start, but too old to compete.

Most don't consider Favre a top five quarterback of all-time. And yes, it does affect his legacy.

Yes. Nobody mentions Favre as a top 5 all time QB because of stuff like this. Peyton is top 10 for sure but if you want to crack that top 5 it's a much higher standard and rightfully so.

It's not undue.

Just like Favre throwing pick after pick and making stupid decisions.

I swear some of you guys are only agenda based and have no perspective.

Favre = Gunslinger. Stupid decisions lots of times. Great QB.
Manning = Smart as QBs get. Folds under pressure.

When you're in an argument for the GOAT, everything comes under scrutiny.

Who in the world has Brett Farve over P. Manning in terms of all time great QBs?
