Now that you've gotten that out of your system. There is no way that Tom Brady is a better QB than John Elway was. Don't insult yourself. Don't get me wrong, Tom Brady is good. I feel confident that his success has nothing to do with reviewing video tape of defense signals. He is however not the athlete on the field that John Elway was. And Tom Brady has always had as much or more than John Elway ever did from a talent perspective. I doubt you followed the Broncos enough in the 80's to actually know what you are talking about. |

I think he was the greatest athlete to play the position. He is certainly in the discussion about the greatest ever. To me that includes Sammie Baugh, John U, Otto Graham, Joe Montana, Terry Bradshaw, and Tom Brady as well. I think the only guy around now that could surpass Elway in the athlete discussion is JaMarcus Russell. |

How many HOF'ers has Brady had on his teams? Heck, how many All Pros/Pro Bowlers? And "athlete" isn't all that important, is it? We're talking about QBs, not decathletes. Michael Vick was the best damn athlete in the NFL probably, certainly among QBs, but that didn't mean he won games.

To this point John Elway played with zero HOFer's. Zimmerman goes in this year. We aren't even far enough along to see who will be in the HOF with Brady. You've got no point there. As far as the Pro Bowler aspect, that's a popularity contest. Like your left tackle, he made it to the pro bowl this season. He was the most popular LT in the Super Bowl this season too. They were calling his name out all night. And "athletic" is very important, but you would be right that's it's not the only thing. There is the mental aspect to being successful. John Elway had both. |

What Elway did better than anyone was combine his athletic ability with his ability to make plays in the passing game, with only Steve Young and Fran Tarkenton as real contenders.
