Infectorman says about Manning:

“Played in the AFC South- the perennial doorstep of the NFL- aside from Houston’s recent surge”

Wow that is an insane comment. Look at the AFC East. The Jets, Fins and Bills have been picking in the top 10 for ever. Yeah the Jets had a good team for Rex’s first two years, but other than that nothing. Oh, and somehow Brady keeps getting to have the easiest schedule every year.

Manning had to face the Titans and Jags. They have made the playoffs more in the past decade than the Bills, Fins and Jets. Manning > Brady.

———————————————————-

Last decade:

Houst/Jax/Tenn: 15 top 10 picks/11 playoff app.

Jets/Bills/Mia: 9 top 10 picks/12 playoff app.

Never let the facts get in the way of a good story Cap’n spew

Also these idiotic comments about “easiest schedule” are just that!

For all the haters that seem not to comprehend, this year the Pats play the NFC West and the AFC South. Then of course they play each of the AFC East rivals twice. That adds up to…….YES……. 14 games that are PRE-DETERMINED. That leaves 2 “at large games”. These 2 are the Broncos and Ravens…both 2011 play-off teams!

Please tell me how they are handed a piece of cake.

If this is the guy who got the Patriots to the Super Bowl with one of the worst defenses and a mediocre running game, then I’d say that he’s pretty good. Last I checked, the Patriots were still leading the NFL in putting points up on the scoreboard.

Brady destroyed a terrible Rams team who were the “home” team in London.

Combine that with the fact that the Pats have one of the easiest schedules in football and it makes sense they are doing well.

—
The haters ALWAYS have an excuse as to why Brady or the Patriots are good.

If you do some research you will find that the total combined W-L record of there opponents is NOT the “easiest”.

Brady:
Plays outside
No Future HOFer in his cadre other than a cup of coffee with Moss
Plays in a much tougher division throughout the whole of his career
5 SB appearance, 3 Rings

Manning:
Played indoors
Has at least 1 and potentially 2 HoFer’s at his disposal for the majority of his career
Played in the AFC South- the perennial doorstep of the NFL- aside from Houston’s recent surge
2 SB appearance, 1 Ring

Brady > Manning

“Tom Brady is playing just as well as he ever has, it’s incredible. ”

No, he’s not. But he is a victim of his own success…and he did play great against the Rams.

I’m not much into these awards but it is interesting that TB has won the same amount as PM in three fewer playing years. I wonder how many of them he had before they went all pass happy in 07? Probably like 3, lol

One thing that’s under appreciated about TB is that he’s played QB in all types of offenses and performed well. Pass first, game manager, spread, 2 TE etc. The author Sean Glennon has pointed this out in his latest book.

What’s ridiculous is Smith winning PoW. Stafford had a much better game.

Neither have won a SB since 2007 season…Peyton is a now a noodle-armed, greedy pitchman, and Brady can’t win the big one without cheating!

Tom Brady is playing just as well as he ever has, it’s incredible. He’s been so great for so long it’s not a big deal if he has a great game anymore, it’s unfortunate but he’s a victim of his own success.
