What a ****ing myth that is...

Manning outplayed Brady (who through a season ending pick that year) in the AFC Championship game...and then played a marvelous game in the Super Bowl...they were down 7-0 and then he threw a 3rd and 20 pick on their first series...and then all he did after that was control the clock for 2/3 of the game and win in easy fashion against a defense that took Rex Grossman to the Super Bowl.

ok...

and that's why this shifted from Manning GOAT to Montana...

No one is talking about Brady anymore because that debate is CLOSED.

Everyone knows it...

The Colts are still going to be in the mix every year...the Patriots are going to be like the Celtics now...they'll probably win their division...and then they'll lose in the 1st or 2nd round...

They are done.

That onside kick doesn't happen...the Colts probably win. That extra possession swung the entire momentum of the game...gave the Saints a 13-10 lead before the Colts answered...the Colts go up 17-6...the Saints are playing catch up rather than the Colts...

When they went up 24-17 Manning KNEW they had to score with 3+ minutes left (which is why they were in such hurry up mode) because otherwise the Saints would march down into field goal range and just end the game in regulation...with 3 minutes and 3 TO's they had a little leeway...

A play no one talks about that really helped the Saints was when that dude got injured on 3rd and 5 and they went to an injury timeout...Manning was tearing them apart with the hurry up...that gave them a chance to regroup and call a play and have the right personnel out there...and then he throws the pick.

Look, he's won four MVPs. I'm not blind to that. It's hardly like I missed that fact. Or that he has more MVPs than anyone in NFL history. Well done. Applaud. But we'll see what 2010 and beyond brings.

Look, honestly, I've always said I'd be perfectly happy with EITHER as my QB. You can tell me Manning is better, but all I see is far too many playoff choke jobs which make me REALLY happy to have Tom Brady and three rings and not Peyton adn one ring. Thanksallthesame.

Except for 2007 when Brady went nuts with Moss, there has never been that much talk of Brady as GOAT.

And as I said, except for you and a few others, there isn't much talk of Manning as GOAT either.

Manning was a pedestrian 25 for 38 with a TD and pick.

The Colts OL dominated the Bears, running for over 180 yards. Their defense, meanwhile, had two picks, one for a TD and held the offensively-challenged Bears (a fairly mediocre SB team, BTW) to less than 300 yards of total offense.

But yeah -- it was all Manning...

Seriously, you can't make this stuff up.

Did you watch his offensive line get dominated by the Giants DLine the entire game, or did you just not watch the game?

Given how little time he had, I thought Brady played very well. Better than Meltdown Manning likely would have.

I saw it, the Oline played horrible. Brady and the offense still choked.

See there are other aspects to the game than just the QB's. But you can go as far as saying that Manning prob would have thrown their defense off guard with his audbles and changing at the line etc. No one does that like Manning, not even Brady.

I can go on and say that the Colts defenses in 2002-03 etc have prevented Manning from going to more SB's than he's been in.

Eh? Bit of a nonsequitur there. I agree the OFFENSE choked because the OLine got dominated. Couldn't run the ball worth a damn and Brady had no time.

But that's Brady's fault? That's a joke, to be honest.

Did you knwo the Patriots had FORTY-FIVE (45) yards rushing that game? Average of 2.8 yards. And even though Brady was under pressure all day and sacked five freaking times, he threw ZERO picks.

How many did Manning throw the other day against the Saints when his jersey barely got dirty all day? Oh right, just the one I guess...

Quote:

Yeah, like the Giants defense playing out of their minds and dominating the Patriots OLine. But Brady still scoring the late go ahead TD. And then the defense giving up the game winning drive to the Giants, including "helmet catch". But presumably Brady should've audibled to Rodney Harrison that that was coming, because that's what Peyton would have done.

Of course, none of this has resulted in anything more than one SB win for Peyton -- a game in which he had a thoroughly pedestrian performance by the way -- in his career, but that's ok. His sweat smells like roses too....

Quote:

No one in competition fo rthe GOAT throws picks in key games like Manning either, certainly not Brady.

I can go on and say that the Colts defenses in 2002-03 etc have prevented Manning from going to more SB's than he's been in.[/quote]

You didn't see the Patriots 2002 defense much did you? Or '05... Or '09 for that matter. It wasn't pretty, really. No pressure on QBs and a serious problem with stopping the run.

These claims that this Super Bowl makes him any less of a QB are beyond ridiculous.

Super Bowls aren't easy to win. You have to have just the right level of talent on all sides of the ball and have just the right amount of bounces. Hell, even Tom Brady hasn't won a Super Bowl in umpteen years.

Peyton Manning is a clutch quarterback and I still think he goes down in history as the greatest QB of all time. Regardless of the fact that he (and not his coaching staff) is most responsible for the loss on Sunday.

And the Colts dont? Top 3 o line in the league, Wayne, Clark, Collie, Garcon & Addai..then Freeney, Mathis, Brackett, and a highly underrated secondary..thats enough talent..Peyton just crumbles under the spotlight damn near everytime

HAHA, comparing the Pats defense to the Colts is just laughable. The Pats defense had more influence on their SB victories than Brady did.

Of course nothing will change your mind. You're a Pats fan.

Switch Peyton and Tom Badass to the other team and Peyton has more SB's the Brady. not even close.

I think it was the best the I could hope for Manning. He played good but not great and when it counted he choked. I have to confess when he threw the interception I still thought the Colts could win but he didn't let me down.

Ok, assuming that you are saying that the 2000 Ravens D is better than that Bears D.

A list of defenses in the last 20 years that were better than the 2006 Bears D...

The list is too long to list.

They were 3rd in Points and 5th in yards. They weren't even the second best defense of that ****ing year.

'Hamas' Jenkins 02-09-2010 04:31 PM

Did you know that Peyton Manning also built all the talent for the 90's Bills, the expansion Carolina Panthers, and the Indianapolis Colts?

He did this by controlling the mind of Bill Polian, even when he was 13.

'Hamas' Jenkins 02-09-2010 04:33 PM

I'm going to repost this for posterity, because I want to see how Hootie either A) dodges the argument, or B) deflects it away to something else:

Quote:

Manning is the GOAT of all time because he makes Marvin Harrison into one of the most productive receivers ever. Eddie Kennison would have had just as good of a career.

Tonight? Manning's downfall is blamed on Reggie Wayne.

Collie and Garcon mean nothing, he can do it with anyone, then Brees has a better supporting cast.

Manning only made one bad throw the entire game?

Well, what about that overthrow on 3rd down on the first drive that cost them a chance to get 7?

What about that bad decision on the out route on the game changing drive before he thew a ball that was almost intercepted by Jenkins?

Let's also remember that the Colts had twice as many yards rushing as the Saints, the same number of rushing attempts, so their running game was far more productive.

The Colts defense also gave Manning a turnover on the 2 yard line, basically saving him from having to score another 7 points.

Manning is the offensive coordinator and coach of the team, he calls all the plays and waves the punt team off the field...unless there are two minutes left in the half and then all of a sudden all calls go directly through Caldwell, who's never called an offensive play in his life.

The entire game flipped on the Garcon drop, but not the Colston drop.

What an embarrassing display.

Yeah, Manning played well last night. But he's the most important player on the team, and the other guy's most important player outperformed him, despite having no help from a running game. Manning also faced absolutely no pressure last night, save for one play.

And he threw a pick six.

Drew Brees was better when he had to be better.

Just like Tom Brady was better than Manning when he had to be.

Manning is an all-time great QB, but the fact remains that Montana won 4 SBs, including making a longer drive that Manning couldn't with half the time, and every time Manning has faced a truly top shelf QB in the playoffs, his record is:

1-6

Brady: 1-2
Brees: 0-1
Rivers: 0-2
McNair ('99 version): 0-1

Meanwhile, his wins in the playoffs have come against the following:

Trent Green: 2-0
McNair (washed up '06 version)
Rex Grossman
Joe Flacco
Mark Sanchez (rookie)
Jake Plummer: 2-0

(We won't bash him for losses against Jay Fiedler, Chad Pennington, or 2nd year game manager Ben Roethlisberger here)

Manning is far more Wilt Chamberlain than he is Bill Russell.

Control freaks Manning and Belichick coexisting
sounds like complete fantasy to me

But yeah -- it was all Manning...

Seriously, you can't make this stuff up.

he threw a pick on the 1st drive of the game after Clark ran a wrong route and they got two false start penalties...on 3rd and 20...

after that the Colts offense controlled the ball for 38 minutes and he won the MVP...

but yeah he didn't do anything to win that game...

Just like he didn't do anything to beat the Patriots the game before that.

Whatever.

Peyton Manning > Tom Brady

Has always been, will always be.

Given how little time he had, I thought Brady played very well. Better than Meltdown Manning likely would have.

LMAO

Did you see the passes Manning delivered (before the pick, of course) in the face of pressure?

He made 3 or 4 UNBELIEVABLE, LEGENDARY 3rd down passes.

Passes Brady could NEVER make.

So you're saying this is right before he threw to the wrong guy and had the pick six returned in his face to seal the game?

Sorry, they don't stand out clearly in my mind...

'Hamas' Jenkins 02-09-2010 05:11 PM

Sometimes I wonder if Hootie knows the definitions of the words he uses.

There was one legendary pass in that game. And Tracy Porter caught it.

Hootie 02-09-2010 05:11 PM

Hamas my argument never was against Brees...Brees executed his gameplan FLAWLESSLY...whichever team won the QB was going to be MVP...

Brees also didn't have to make a tough pass all game long.

That's all I said....and that's isn't a bash on Brees in the least...who knows...maybe he does have to make a tough pass and maybe he completes it...

but the fact of the matter is...

Dink and dunk, dink and dunk...and the Dungified Colts D never adjusted...and made it easy street for Brees and that offense...

Which put all the pressure on the Colts offense after that onside kick...and Peyton responded once...and couldn't respond again...Vilma made a few great plays on deep balls I thought were going to be Manning TD's to Collie...

but I was saying when they fell down 24-17 they had to score in 1:30 or so...with more than 3 minutes otherwise they were fucked...and that's what they tried to do...you didn't see the pre-snap Peyton Manning shit because he didn't have time to do it...

and that's when the forced pick came...

Hey...a bad read/pass at an inopportune time...no doubt about it...but like I said about Favre the week before...not a choke job.

The Saints did everything right to win that game...Payton rebounded nicely from that abysmal NFC Championship game...

But the Saints played better on offense, better on defense, made ballsier calls, and got an extra possession...

and that "turnover" on 4th and goal ended up being a gift for them...best case scenario worked out because of that...

If they had just kicked a field goal there is little doubt in my mind Peyton marches down and gets at least 3 before halftime.

Hootie 02-09-2010 05:12 PM

and I was more impressed with Pierre Thomas than Joseph Addai in that game...regardless of how one long run paints the statistics in the game.

'Hamas' Jenkins 02-09-2010 05:12 PM

Actually, Manning got the ball with 6 minutes left, not 3, so that argument is null and void too.

He made passes to Clark, Garcon (drop), and Collie that were all in the face of immense pressure...and they were all either throws on the run or backfoot throws that were right on the money 15-30 yards down the field...that literally hit their receivers in the numbers or right on the hands...all on 3rd down...all ridiculous passes that no other QB makes.

DeezNutz 02-09-2010 05:14 PM

It sure as hell wasn't "legendary," but the pass that Manning completed to Clark--I believe--while rolling out to his right, putting the thing perfectly over two defenders and under two others, was a thing of ****ing beauty.

well ok...

Everyone knew he had to score with 3+ minutes otherwise the Saints were just going to drive and clock it...and win with a field goal...

3+ and 3 T.O.'s gave them a little leeway because they could have sat on those T.O.'s until the Saints got into field goal range...

He has the Delorian and travelled back in time to set it straight. In his alternate reallity Peyton has 12 SB rings and has never thrown an incomplete pass. I mean, how else would he know for sure?

Hootie 02-09-2010 05:16 PM

and that's why you didn't see any of the pre-snap shenanigans...

they either had to score with 3+ minutes or 0:30 seconds or less to have a chance...

1+ minute and the Saints were going to win, period.

3+ puts the pressure on the Saints...

< 1:30 puts all the pressure on the Colts...

it was clear what they were trying to do...

and that's when those INT's happen...to ANYONE

Hootie 02-09-2010 05:17 PM

shit...

the worst thing I saw all game was that 1st timeout the Colts used...

that was handing 40 seconds to the Saints for no reason...awful, ridiculous decision and I'm not sure if Manning made it or the coaches made it or both...

but it was dumb nonetheless

I watched the game. I don't recall and UNBELIEVABLE or LEGENDARY passes. Didn't even have one that I was like Damn! That was a good pass. He made throws that any starting QB should make. There were no Montana to Clark throws. Not even close.

PunkinDrublic 02-09-2010 05:22 PM

He threw a tight spiral on that interception that was legendary. Just when you think Peyton Manning had shed his habit of choking in the clutch he adds another chapter in his storied career of leading another dominant team to a big letdown. Meat Dragon you really are embarrising yourself with your dumbass excuses for Peyton.

Well you weren't watching too closely, then. Sorry, but despite the fact that it was far from Peyton's best game, there were a few beauties that very few QBs would have completed.

DBOSHO 02-09-2010 06:39 PM

Change your name to the excuse dragon.

DBOSHO 02-09-2010 06:40 PM

Ill give it up to peyton. He made a few great throws.

Yeah those quick slants are tough throws...

Eli is more clutch than peyton.

DeezNutz 02-09-2010 07:10 PM

IIRC, Eli is one of the few QBs whose rating actually increases in the 4th.

So saying that he's more clutch is statistically accurate, I believe.

(going completely off memory--not going to look that up right now)

Hootie 02-09-2010 07:13 PM

clutch QB play is just some made up ****ing bullshit excuse for trying to ignore simple logic...

watch Brady play
watch Peyton play

one is clearly better than the other

John Elway was a "clutch" QB according to most and he lost 3 Super Bowls...

KCrockaholic 02-09-2010 07:13 PM

So... I'm not going to read through this stupid thread, but has Hootie accepted that Brees is better than Manning yet? Just curious if he is being a huuuge homer or if he is being reasonable.

Which one is better? I just want to read your excuse for why Manning is somehow a better clutch QB than Brady.

I don't always agree with what you have to say, but I am not going to bring your age into account when reading your thoughts. If you are correct, I will accept it and continue on, if your wrong, your not much different from anybody else on this board.

Brees better than Manning?

ROFL

Brees played marvelously in the Super Bowl and executed the gameplan with precision and deserves to be Super Bowl MVP and deserves his Super Bowl ring.

well considering I can tell exactly how old you are by the way you post...pretty much.

It must suck to be so young and naive and predictable.

Or maybe you are 15? 16? Did I overshoot it a few years?
