So I work at a coffee shop by day and I'm spending most my nights in bars playing with my bands. And let me tell you, I am so incredibly sick and tired of being SICK AND TIRED of spending half of my life arguing Peyton over Tom to a buncha dude-guys down at hahvahd yahd.
So let me hear it: why do YOU think Peyton's the #1 QB of our generation?

Because.......
Nobody tells him to exchange his skirt for slacks.
And if they did......
Indy Lori will kick they ass.
You got that right.
Didn’t I once fight you here about Peyton?
"You can't defend the perfect throw, what can I say?" Peyton quoting Marino
Yeah
You got mad at me cause that film of Peyton before the game looking tough cracked me up.
I took offense,
and called you out. Can’t remember who had the last word. Good Times.
PS: I still think he’s a badass.
"You can't defend the perfect throw, what can I say?" Peyton quoting Marino
Because every statistic outside of Super Bowls won by his TEAM favors him?
You really need our help with this?
The best think you can do, short of exterminating them all by poisoning their coffee, is to keep your mouth shut and don’t engage them.
I'd personally go with the coffee poison though.
Now a proud annoyance on Stampede Blue, 18to88, Indy Football Report, and Phil B's blog.
Man, I need a life...
Random fact of the week from the empty void that is my mind: This is what happens when college students get bored.
Or just throw scalding hot coffe in their faces.
Then smash the pot over their Pats-lovin heads…

“the best ‘think’ you can do?” don’t you get sassy with me willy, i’m looking for specific examples in statistics. don’t give me a blanket statement and get all fussy, especially if you’re spell check isn’t working.

use this..
“If you compare Manning to Brady like Marino to Montana. then the argument is that Marino has all the numbers but no rings, and Montana has all the rings but half the stats… WELL let’s say Marino had a ring, AND the numbers….that’s Peyton”

Why bother arguing at all with the locals?
It’s worse than trying to get someone to change their religion or political viewpoint. No one would ever be able to convince you otherwise, so why bother trying to convince them – especially in their own city? Seems like one of those pointless, winless, waste-of-breath arguments. (doesn’t mean I don’t engage from time-to-time, but I always regret it afterwards.)
Keep the faith!
I have to agree with you.
It’s pointless.

It's the same as the Marino-Montana argument from the 80s...
…or actually closer to the Aikman-Young argument in the early 90s…
Bottom line is, they’re BOTH great QBs. If you ask me though, Tommy had his success early, has peaked, and is already on the downswing. Peyton looks like he’s still getting better 11 years later. PM is DEFINITELY a better QB. TB just had more success sooner.
haha!
+18 ;-)

Tom Brady is the definition of a game manager. He will do enough to not lose games, and can win games if you let him. However, if his offense and defense aren’t clicking, he’s probably not winning.
Peyton Manning can win games by himself. He can put a bad defense and a struggling offense on his back, take over a game and win singlehandedly.
Brady may have more rings, but he also has more SB losses than Peyton. Manning is, hands down, a better statistical QB.
So yeah. If you only value rings, then Brady is your guy. Worth noting that the Pats haven’t won a title since the 2004 season, so they’re getting to the end of their 5 year “We won a Super Bowl so we can’t really bitch about things” period.

Frustration
The Brady supporters win a point just by keeping this debatable in anybody’s mind. There’s no argument. Manning is the best, and Brady is a distance back with several other QBs who are pretty good. Just keeping the discussion open of Manning vs. Brady is a major boost beyond reality to Brady. I weary of it.
The Patriots have had the best team over the last decade, albeit not without scandal. However, I don’t think that team success makes any one of their players the best in the game at his position. Except maybe Vinatieri =p
bingo
> Manning is here
> Brady, Brees, Rivers, Palmer. They’re all about right here.

Peyton has re-defined the position.
His unique style of quarterbacking is second to none. Brady isn’t as interesting to watch. Peyton at the line of scrimmage is art.
"You can't defend the perfect throw, what can I say?" Peyton quoting Marino
Watch this, I'm gonna piss Lori off.
Except one of these days, he’s gonna flap his arms so hard that he’ll take off and hit his head on the blimp, putting himself out with a concussion.
Then he'll wake up and throw 2 or 3 more TD passes, bat down a tipped ball,
recover a team mates fumble, catch the defense with 12 men on the field, cause an encroachment penalty, and film a commercial. All in under 60 minutes.
"You can't defend the perfect throw, what can I say?" Peyton quoting Marino
So,
he films the commercial during halftime? Or is this when he donates blood? Or does he donate blood while filming the commercial?

Random fact of the week from the empty void that is my mind: This is what happens when college students get bored.
He films his commercial WHILE he's playing, because he's really into multi-tasking,
during half-time he’s busy writing another pop song for Brittany and going over film.
"You can't defend the perfect throw, what can I say?" Peyton quoting Marino
brady's better because he has more rings?
what???? rings are for bragging rights only. superbowls are about teams, not individual merits.
let me ask you, mister “brady’s better, just look at the rings” person: you’re telling me BEN ROTHLESBURGER (sorry about spelling, I’ve been drinking) is a better QB than PEYTON MANNING??? you’re telling me ELI MANNING is as good as PEYTON because he has as many rings?
I’m sorry. But that’s just @#$%ing ridiculous. Seriously, shame on you.
"gonzo's gonna getcha"
I've said it in several posts, including this one...
http://www.stampedeblue.com/2009/8/14/989403/best-qb-in-the-nfl-peyton-manning
I think you’ll find my comments in that blog mirror several listed here….
Here’s the only statistic you need to pay attention to however when it comes to the whole Brady vs. Manning debate…
Manning carries his team, Brady manages his team.
FYI – Terry Bradshaw, who is not even in the discussion in the top 25 greatest QBs of all time has 4 SB rings with the best defense in the history of the game.
His stats for those 4 years???
http://www.nfl.com/players/terrybradshaw/profile?id=BRA301078
The guy was a mediocre QB for much of his career and yet he has 4 SB rings…
I’m not saying Brady is Terry Bradshaw…..but the only reason people put him in the discussion with the NFL’s best is because of his SB rings….not because of his production on the field…
