Belichick hated Bledsoe as a QB and wanted to do anything to get rid of him, but Kraft wouldn't let him pull the plug on Bledsoe. The injury to Bledsoe was really the best thing to ever happen to Belichick.

Do you guys really fuckin think brady is as good as manning for a career? REALLY? Manning basically was his coach. Brady is a great QB, im not taking anything away.

And you can fuck yourself and remember how GREAT Manning is in big moments, big games throughout his career including college at Tennessee in bowl games and against huge rival Florida. Perhaps he shouldn't try to be the coach as you say and focus on his main job bc he folds under pressure A LOT. I'm not saying either side is right either, it's opinion as TS says.

i even specificially stated that brady was really good. I wasnt giving him no credit, but I think his coaches and his defense helped him more than Mannings did. I also think the style of play that Pats ran for so long before they got moss helped too. All those short passes completed to act like runs ended up making stats for Brady look better than if they had run a much more balanced attack.

Precision passing can be just as deadly if not more then a cannon arm. Montanas entire career was precision passing. When you can hit a receiver in stride on a slant that goes another 40 yards for a TD the QB is just as responsible as the receiver. So many QBs cant do that. Watch any NFL game and watch how many crossing patterns the receiver has to stop or reach behind him to make the catch instead of not breaking stride.
Its something that Elway developed further into his career instead of just trying to air it out and have his receivers outrun the defense. Its the whole basis for the West Coast offense actually. And right now Bradys as good or better then anyone in the league at it.
Personally Id rather have a better precision passer then someone with a stronger arm, but thats just my opinion.

you arent gonna get a fight from me bro. Phil Simms. Enough said
but as you said, thats right now. The question was rookie manning or rookie brady, not todays manning vs todays brady.
If we are goin by right now, clearly I would choose tom brady.
the debate can go deeper too cause again, its us starting a team. I wouldnt run a west coast offense if I started a team, the type id run would be better with Manning.

choosing between the spots they were picked kinda goes too much the other way. but i get your point and thats fine. Thats the one thing that might lean me to brady. But id rather go with the guy I know can do everything and run my team and just focus on making the team around him better as opposed to the guy who can probably do it himself but we dont know for sure cause he was also in a better system with better parts (by better parts i mean the team as a whole.

Well I was under the impression the reason it said rookie Manning and Brady was that it was basically that you were getting a full career from both men with them developing into the same QBs they are now.
I would be the first to say as a rookie Peyton Manning was much more ready for the NFL. I just think overall career wise Tom Brady has surpassed him.
I mean, if you said rookie Manning against rookie Favre, you would have one guy that was a backup in Atlanta doing nothing, rather then the guy that went on to have a huge career with the Pack. Maybe Im not getting the question.

Thats not what I said. I said Tom Bradys game is more one of timed precision passing rather then going deep. Yes I agreee that Manning is a very accurate passer but alot of his career was also based on deep passes to Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne. You yourself said they dont run a west coast offense, which is the type of offense Brady is perfect for. short to mid range precision passes that hit the receiver in stride and turn into big plays.

And yes based on their entire career I take Brady. I dont remember just this year even being mentioned. Thats my point. In his career Brady won 2 more rings with alot less talent on offense, thats why hes my QB.
As far as this year goes hes dominating the league with a bunch of no name receivers.

Heres the criteria Im voting on. I get both as rookies, and as their career goes on, they develop the same talents and abilities they have now. Including strength, accuracy, ability to read defenses, poise and leadership. Im not talking about wins or stats or titles. Just abilities. They will develop the same abilities they did through their career. I still take Brady.

Pats had a better D because their coach was better and because they didn't have a QB throwing the deep pass every play, immediately putting their defense back on the field. Manning played like a Madden game for a lot of his career, just scoring way too fucking fast. His defense had no chance, half the time.
Also, the Colts had Gary Brackett, Raheem Brock, Dwight Freeney, Robert Mathis, Cato June and Bob Sanders. They had a chance to be a great defense, they just never were.

no stupid, its not. Its career of manning vs career of brady, but just the guy. Not the system not the coaches, just the guy, what he did through his NFL career. Not how you saw them as a rookie cause no one knew who tom brady was

OK, you get to create your own football team! You can pick either rookie Peyton Manning or rookie Tom Brady to be your QB!!!! Who is it going to be?!??!?!?
Ok then I pick Ryan Leaf and Chad Pennington.

im not sayin it wasnt awesome. But people act like the Pats dominated the colts until the colts finally got that one. they were all tough games. its not like these differences we are arguing were big either way.
Im just tryin to take away all that and strip it to just the player
The Pats def didn't dominate the Colts. They won all the time, but the games were always close.
And the comeback that Manning produced against the Pats in the AFC championship might be one of the greatest comebacks ever.

Thats why I think, over the course of everything, Manning the QB, was better than Brady, the QB. And the D, Line, Special teams and coaching is what put NE over the top of the colts, not the QBs. And some help from the Refs

So Peyton Manning never got help from the refs? Really??? He STILL is. That game against the Eagles a few weeks back the referees shouldve been wearing Colts numbers on their back for Christs sake.

when did I say that? I was straight comparing the Pats and Colts games they played vs each other. It had nothing to do with games or refs overall, it was just to compare the 2 teams the QBs played on. Way to actually read the point though. All it was was to show that NE didnt dominate the games with the Colts. I never said anything about anything else

Ha! If you watched any piece of those games (2007 in particular) you'd realize it had less to do with coaching but more to do with Manning throwing two huge pics and some bad passes on 4th. It was nice to give the Colts a fitting end to the RCA dome. Volek played way over his head that game to finish them as well when Rivers and Tomlinson went down with injuries.
In 2008 it really became a one person show as Sproles had the game of his life and the Colts took some huge penalties.
Also it really comes down to matchups/having a team's number with the Colts for SD. I believe they have won 3 straight against them in the playoffs (going back before Turner) and 5 of the last 6 against them in the reg season. The last loss coming back in SD in Novermber of 2008, you know, the fucking game I WAS AT!
