Show a gif of a quarterback in the 70's standing the pocket to throw a ball and then get slammed to the ground, then I would agree.
But the video showed in the OP's post is just a guy getting out of bounds. Brady would go down or run out of bounds earlier. One thing that doesn't get talked about is how Brady and Manning would go down right away instead of taking a hit to protect themselves.
