re: Drew Bledsoe: Tom Brady benefited greatly from his system unlike Manning, Elway

Point is, if Vinatieri misses those two kicks and the Patriots lose in over time without getting ball or Harrison doesn't pick off McNabb when they are driving or butler miss times the jump, are we still having this talk about Brady?

What if Eli Manning doesn't pull off two of the most miraculous plays in Super Bowl history?

You're literally playing the "what if" game, and then getting mad at others whenever they do the same thing.

Again, if it wasn't for the tuck rule or Bledsoe, Brady never even makes that first Super Bowl.

Another "what if."

ut this talk as him as the best quarterback of all time when he is safely outside of the top ten of all time is just silly.

As I've told another Brady-hater in another thread, you could trade Brady's postseason accomplishments with Peyton Mannings (1-2 in Super Bowls, less than stellar playoff record), and Brady would still be an all-time great quarterback. Top 10, easily.

Brady is a 2x MVP. Only 8 quarterbacks in the history of football can say that. And both of his MVP seasons were top 10 seasons for a quarterback in the history of the sport.

Saying he is safely outside the top 10 is literally laughable.
