Brady vs. Manning
What you get when you see Brady and Manning tomorrow is the privilege to watch the two best quarterbacks in the game go at it. This rivalry has grown over the past four years with Brady getting the edge in the beginning and Manning winning of late (the last three). This brings up a simple question that has an almost impossible answer, "Who's better?" If there was a draft of the whole league and you had first pick, which one would you take? To me this is an easy answer, Tom Brady, but lets look into this. Peyton Manning came into the league with pro bowlers all around him in Harrison, Glenn, and Marshall Faulk. This made Manning's transition to the NFL almost seamless. Now Manning has Harrison, Wayne, Clark, Gonzalez, and Addai, not to mention a killer line. Lets look at Brady, he came in by taking over for a Pro bowl QB and wins the Super Bowl his rookie year with his best receiver being Troy Brown. Now he finally is surrounded by the same talent as Colts and he is flourishing. Tom and his team are on pace to shatter the single season scoring records and if they can get by the Colts tomorrow a shot at being the first undefeated team since the '72 Dolphins. Screw the controversy of running up the score and not having respect for the game. Tom Brady has been unleashed and he is showing the world that he is the best. Tom and Peyton are at the top of their games right now and I think that tomorrow's game will support my opinion that Tom Brady is and always has been better than Peyton Manning.

This is a very interesting blog, a topic you hear lots about. Manning and Brady are both amazing quarterbacks who are at the top of their game. But if I were put in a situation where I needed to choose between the two, I would choose Tom Brady. This year he is leading in touchdown passes, 30. The record for touchdown passes is 49, and Brady is only at the half waypoint in the season. The Colts are an undefeated team, but if you look at statistics, Tom Brady seems to be more athletically equipped. The argument will probably go on for many more years as to who is a better quarterback. But the only thing that will settle this argument is statistics, and right now they show that Brady is number 1.
