Peyton Manning is an overall better quarterback than Tom Brady

Hey, Sorry kev, but I just think we'll always disagree on this topic. You say the postseason is the most important, but if any team just focuses on the postseason, they won't even get there. They will just float through the regular season and have a horrible record. Then they will have no chance at all. Also, you say that teams and players make names for themselves, but believe it or not, other people also care about the regular season. For example, when the Colts went undeafeated so long last year and the year before during the regular season, they were everywhere. Even at the Super Bowl, they were talking about how good the Colts did in the regular season. Also, Manning has and still is considered one of the best quarterbacks of the milenium. He has had alot of trouble in the postseason. Until last year, he always went out in the first or seond round. He was almost nonexistent in the postseason before, but he was still popular. You know why? Because he was dominant in the regular season. Also, you say that Brady is equal or better than Manning in the regular season. If this is true, than why does Manning have 2 regular season MVP's and Brady has none. Although he is heading for one this year, he will still be trailing Manning in regular season performance. Next, you say Brady has had no tools. I agree he hasn't had as much luck as Manning in past years, and thats why he hasn't dominated like Manning in those past few years. When he won Super Bowls, he actually did have talent. They just weren't obvious studs like Harrison, or Chad Jackson. They were more like Joseph Addai, where the were underrated, but still almowst Pro-Bowl quality players. For example in 04, he had Asante Samuel, Corey Dillon, Kevin Faulk, David Givens, Teddy Bruschi, Rodney Harrison, and Adam Vinatieri, who was an amazingly talented kicker at the time. He also had Deion Branch, the MVP of Super Bowl XXXIX. When Brady didn't have really talented tools like this, he didn't dominate like Manning can. This year, Brady has many tools, like Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Richard Seymour, and Junior Seau, just to name a few. Manning does have tools, but they're all out with injuries. Harrison is out, and they are still missing one starting linebacker, they were missing two. They are still missing Freeney of course, who is out for the season, and they don't even have Anthony Gonzalez, a top rookie wide receiver. Even with all of these injuries, Manning is holding up well and winning games as usual. If Manning had all of his tools, I have no doubt in my mind that he can perform like Brady. Also Kev, in Super Bowl XXXVIII on Brady's last drive, the score was tied, so Brady wasn't really on the spot. He was just trying to squeeze in the win before the end. He always had OT to fall back on. Also, in all of his close games, Adam Vinatieri was the real clutch performer. Vinatieri made a 41-yard field goal in 2004 and a 48-yarder in 2002. Sure Brady had to get there, but he only had to go about 20-30 yards to get there. What's that, two first downs? Then in 2005, Brady had no pressure on him. He was the seven-point favorite going into the game, and failed to cover the spread, winning by only three, as they did in 2004 also. Basically, although the Patriots are often idolized for their late game heroics in Super Bowls, they often UNDERACHIEVED to get in their high-pressure situations.
