Brady, a sixth-round draft pick taken as the 199th selection in 2000, threw for nearly 31,000 yards and 225 TDs during the decade. He guided the Patriots to seven AFC Eastern Division titles and victories in Super Bowls XXXVI, XXXVIII, and XXXIX. His finest year of the decade came during his MVP season in 2007 when he fired a NFL record 50 TDs passes.

College: Tennessee
Pro Career: 1998-2009 Indianapolis Colts
No player threw for more yards and TDs than Manning who finished as the decade’s highest rated passer. He threw for 42,254 yards and 314 TDs during the 10-season span to post a 98.2 passer rating. Voted to nine Pro Bowls in the decade, Manning also earned first-team All-NFL recognition four times and was twice named second-team All-NFL in the 2000s.

Now, let’s compare who played the QUARTERBACK position better in that decade. It’s not Brady, it’s the guy who had the highest rating, hence, who played the BEST. It’s Peyton Manning.
