Tom Brady is better than Peyton Manning

Ok hi this is my first debate and well I read a'lot of debates and I guess I should start by thanking my opponent for his rebuttal. Ok I will try my best to argue for Tom Brady Peyton Manning career statistics are better than Brady's but is it because Manning is a better Quarterback than Brady or is it a result from the lack of help? Manning has been given gifted wide outs his whole career the amazing Marvin Harrison combo and now the Reggie Wayne combo both excellent wide receivers durable hands and great speed. Brady has not had a big name wide receiver in his entire career except for the recent arrival of Randy Moss. Randy Moss is the first big name Wide Receiver given to Brady and for all of you who look at the stats when Brady finally got the advantage Peyton has he... Hit the 2nd highest QB rating in NFL history He Topped Manning's record of 49 touchdowns in a single season which was regarded as the top season performances of all time by NFL's TOP 10 with 50! He won the NFL MVP award and brought the patriots to one of the first undefeated seasons. Looking at Brady and Manning I can honestly say that Brady plays with alot more heart than Manning could. I will prove this by telling their stories. Peyton Manning was a first overall pick by the Colts with all the potential and abilities that showed to be a great QB which he met. He went in and was given the starting job and was raised to be the top Quarterback he is today. Brady's qualities are measured in what doesn't show up on the stat sheet. "You can never measure how much a guy wants it" Brady who was regarded as too skinny, too weak, and too slow to make it as a NFL Quarterback. He has to fight from the minute he got to the NFL. Beating out Drew Bledsoe for the starting job and with his first start did something that Manning could never do win a Superbowl ring. After that Brady went on to win 2 more Superbowl rings. Brady since then as been called the greatest draft steal in NFL history a 6th round pick. Brady has been called the best Quarterback in the clutch today and in the top 3 in NFL history (1.Montana 2. Elway) which has been shown with game winning drives over and over and over(3 rings). On the topic of clutch Quarterbacks I do not believe Peyton Manning can fall in that category because year after year until 2007 he has lost in the playoffs. The Quarterback is regarded as the leader of the team. The coach of the field and Manning a man who has been consistent his entire career who almost guarantees you a 90+ QB rating can't reapply what he did in the regular season to the playoffs? (when it matters) My opponent said that the championships are a weak indication of a single performance. Well if you all can look on how the patriots won those superbowls. You will always see the words "Game winning drive" Time and time again Brady does not fault under pressure when the time comes for him to show why he is the best quarterback out there. He makes all the doubters into believers. Manning when the light shines on him he would not answer those calls. Manning lost to the Chargers 2 years ago when the odds shifted heavily to him winning when Chargers lost the former MVP Ladanian Tomlinson and their starting QB Philip Rivers. That is the true measure of a NFL quarterback having the ability to lead your team to glory! Losing in the playoffs means wasting your teams time making them go so far and to go home with nothing but a Lower Draft Pick! I think Championships are a team effort. But the fashion the Patriots won in was due to the ability of Brady in situations that only great players like Joe Montana (side note Montanas QB rating is 92) could win in. "Just recently i thought Joe Montana was the greatest Quarterback to ever play the game I now reserve that right for Tom Brady. My Criteria is have you won with different people around you. Have you won in different times in your career. Have you won in different ways."-Joe Theismann Redskins QuarterBack 1974-1985 Brady leadership ability as a Quarterback and his ability to finish the job 2 more times than Manning I think proves he is a better Quarterback! http://www.nfl.com... http://www.nfl.com... http://www.nfl.com... http://www.nfl.com...
