Won't kill that argument. Still not that hard to argue that Peyton is the best of all time. If you want to go strictly by Super Bowls then kudos to you because that makes Trent Dilfer better than Dan Marino.

Peyton best of all time? Is that some kind of joke? There's at least half a dozen guys better. And frankly if Eli wins another Super Bowl he's probably ahead of Peyton too.

Peyton has a much higher completion percentage lifetime than Eli does. If Peyton had the defense and specifically the DLine that his younger brother has had virtually every year of his career then he would have more than just one SB ring.

The national media, which is based in the northeast will be creaming themselves over this game. The rest of the national will give a collective yawn.

About 10 years ago, the Yankees and Mets were both in the World Series, and the media went nuts over it. It ended up having the lowest television ratings of any WS in history.


Define creaming themselves.
There are three rules that I live by, never get less than 12 hours sleep, never gamble with a guy who has the same first name as a city and never get involved with a chick with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Stick to that and everything else is gravy!

Man I will never understand that line of thinking. The hatred of Brady absolutely floors me.

It seems that much of it is borne out of the fact that he is a great champion, who lives a great life, has a hot wife, and is a good looking fellow too. To me that is the American dream. And you never hear him in trouble, he is well regarded as a good husband and father too. I think it is almost un-American if you are not a fan of another AFC East team to hate the guy.

Look at his story. Kid grows up in the shadow of San Francisco in a great family. Gets a scholarship to Michigan and proves on the field that he is the best QB but yet he has to keep fighting off a less talented Drew Henson every year who was given more opportunity. He does this and wins. And yet he still is never handed a darn thing. He slips all the way to the 6th round of the draft. Many, many kids are picked ahead of him with less character and poor work ethics. He waits his turn even then and then finally proves what a great champion and true sportsman he is. And people hate him? Come on.

Great ending. I can't imagine what would have happened after Bradshaw scored if Brady had marched NE down to win the game.

But he didn't did he.

No matter what the talking heads say to give up a touchdown in that situation was a stupid move. You never know what might have happened if they had tried to tackle him, he might have fumbled, you just never know.

The kicker may have shanked the field goal ask the Ravens how that worked out for them a couple of weeks ago.

Tommy can take his supermodel wife and go sulk, I say the better team won, GO GIANTS!
