God, that feels good to see Brady down that list. Has that guy ever made a play other than dropping straight back, having an open reciever with no pressure and then throwing the ball?

He's the Troy Aikman of this QB generation.

Dude, do you watch Tom Brady? One thing that you can say about him is that he is tough like Favre and although he isn't as good after the play breaks down, he will stand in the pocket and take a shot later than anybody. He's an absolute stud.

RashanGary
09-27-2007, 07:42 PM
He's a very good player. I've just seen better. I've watched better every Sunday for the last 15 years (with the exception of a year or two).

Aikman was a great player too. If you listen to Dallas fans, some will still tell you he belongs in the top 5 of all time. He was a tough, smart leader too. I don't think he's a legend though. I don't think Brady is either. Favre, Elway, Montana, Unitas, Starr, Bradshaw, Manning are legends. Brady is the Aikman of the last 10 years.

RashanGary
09-27-2007, 07:45 PM
Would you stop pitting against me, Partial? This whole arguement is getting old. Real old!

I know Brady is a great player, Partial. He gets mentioned from time to time in the Montana, Elway, Favre category and I don't htink he belongs. I think he's the same kind of QB as Aikman (it's really not an insult). A really good player on a really good team who won some big games.

Agreed on the first part. I actually think he is MORE overrated than Aikman. For a good QB who won 3 Super Bowls, I don't think Aikman is overrated. He's mentioned with the Bradshaws and I think that's fair. Young should even be in this conversation. Where's Otto Graham?

BallHawk
09-27-2007, 09:25 PM
Bradshaw was a winner, but his stats shouldn't even qualify as top 15. 212 TD, 210 TDs with a career 70.9 passer rating. Young's passer rating was 25 points higher than Bradshaw's. There's overrated and then there's overrated.

Check some of Brett's stats so far.

Completions- 2nd NFL(Drew Brees), 2nd NFC

Yards- 5th NFL, 2nd NFC (Kitna)

First Downs- 4th NFL, 2nd NFC(Kitna)

Touchdowns- 6th NFL, 3rd NFC

He also has the second highest total of pass plays over 40 yards.


He just isn't what he used to be, he ought to just retire.

HarveyWallbangers
09-27-2007, 09:30 PM
I hate passer rating. Guys in the past (except maybe Bart Starr) didn't dink and dunk like they do nowadays. Those guys put up good numbers for back then. People have become two obsessed with passer rating. I bet a guy that throws for 12 TDs and 7 interceptions in 500 throws gets a worse passer rating than a guy that throws for 25 TDs and 15 interceptions. Give me the guy who scores. You get about 12 possessions/game. If you score TDs on 25% of your possessions, you'll have a good offense. I want the guy that can do that for me. It's hard to score in the redzone too. One TD and one pick in the redzone is better than two FGs.

thats such a moronic statement... I live in New England, this bozo has been handed his superbowls by managing the game... THEY ALWAYS HAD A D to bail them out...

Sure he'd lead the team down the field 20/30 yards for a FG... Ill give him that...

b bulldog
09-27-2007, 09:47 PM
All I will say is that Brady never had the number one ranked D when he won a sb and he never had a weapon like D Howard on the field either. I will no longer post on this subject because it is not worth it :lol: I am happy that Brett is playing very well and also that Brady is, very hapy for both. Actually Harry Sydney was the guyt that said that about Brady, I stole it from him on 107.5, the fan. Time to move on, we can agree to disagree

09-27-2007, 09:56 PM
Nah Id like to backup my facts...

Superbowl vs eagles : The D won

McSoup : 3 INT's

Superbowl vs Panters : Ill give it to Brady, but all he had to do was manage the game...

Delhomme had a good game, but Brady only had to go 30 yards after Kasay kicked it out of bounds on the kickoff...

Who finished that game out??? FG Vinatieri 41, 14:56

Superbowl vs Rams : OH DID THE D SHOW UP AND WIN!!!

Warner : 2 INT

Law 47 interception return (Vinatieri kick)

Who sealed the game once again??? FG Vinatieri 48, 15:00

Brady only put up 147 yards and 1 TD... PLEASE, Any quarterback could have put those numbers up...


Sure Brady is a good Quarterback but he did not lead his team to all three Superbowls... I'll give him the Carolina one, but even that, he only had to go 30 yards to close it out... The other two he road his D to the rings...

I'm not going to rip Brady, but you don't listen bulldog. We've gone over this. Brady deserves his credit, but you are vastly skewing the stats.

Favre had the #1 ranked defense once (and they won the Super Bowl). Other than that, he's had a good defense 2 or 3 of those years and a mediocre or worst defense the other years. Do you deny that?

Brady didn't have the #1 defense if your rankings are based on yardage allowed. Do you think that is the best barometer to gauge a defense?

2004 - New England's defense allowed the 2nd fewest points in the league, were 3rd in forced fumbles, 7th in interceptions, 3rd in sacks. That was easily a top 3 defense in the league--if not the best. Do you want to deny that?

2003 - New England's defense allowed the fewest points in the league, led the league in forced turnovers, 6th in sacks. That was easily a top 3 in the league--if not the best. Do you want to deny that?

2001 - New England's defense allowed the 6th fewest points in the league, 6th in interceptions. That team wasn't a great defense, but they snuck up on people and won some close, tight games in the playoffs. Vinatieri was gold. Brady actually struggled in that Super Bowl, didn't he?

Brady deserves his credit, but to insinuate that Brady hasn't had more help than Favre is ludicrous.

Favre has better stats in his two Super Bowls than Brady had in his three Super Bowls. I guess it's easy when you have great personnel around you. Let's face it, Brady's had better defenses and special teams surrounding him than Favre has had most of his career. If you can't admit that, then you just show that you are biased.

Brady is a great player though. I take nothing away from him. Like Montana, he's been put in a better situation than most of the great QBs, but give him credit for playing clutch and taking advantage.

b bulldog
09-27-2007, 10:08 PM
FAVRE had the greatest Dlinemen ever on his team which led the D to the number one ranking and he also had the ultimate special teams weapon in Des Howard who even Sean Jones said after the game that he was the teams MVP and that they don't win this game without him. I;m sure you'll say that Jones didn't know what he was talking about but if you watch the game, New England was stuffing our O and was moving the ball on O until Howard changed the game with his reurn which was the dagger which gave the team the lombardi trophy.

You act like Favre was a bit piece in the Super Bowl crown. Didn't he throw for 39 TDs and 13 picks that year? Didn't he win the MVP? Didn't he score 3 TDs (2 pass, 1 rush) in the Super Bowl without a turnover?

Maybe not. That was my recollection.

b bulldog
09-27-2007, 10:14 PM
Brady has had a better d during most of his career and also ST's but the Packers should have beated Denver and they would have had a greta chance to go to another if the Phily debacle didn't happen. remeber the heave in OT, that was one of his worse int of his career. the same could be said about Brady in last years game against Indy when he threw his pic. My point is this, if the best D player ever plays with a top 5 qb ever and are coached by a hofer, they should have won more than one sb. That is really what it comes down to :) v

Brady won a Super Bowl when his threw for 145 yards. The other two years, he had possibly the best defense in the league backing him up. He's played on better teams. He's been fortunate. No question about that. Give him credit though. He's a clutch player. One of the best QBs of all-time.

Ron Wolf said that his biggest regret was not surrounding Brett Favre with better players. I believe him.

Sure the rings do help, but I also consider Manning better than Brady, as do most people... Manning only has 1 ring (at the moment)...

It goes far beyond rings, just look at the stats...

b bulldog
09-27-2007, 10:33 PM
All I can say is that from 95-98, this team was loaded! Loaded on offense and defense AND DON'T FORGET, SPECIAL TEAMS! :lol: Having a defense with the likes of Eugene Robinson and Leroy Butler at the two S's, having a young mamouth DT in Gil Brown eating blockers alongside the passrushing DT in Santana Dotson. Having two great DE's in White and Jones. Having a tough SOB in Wayne Simmons and a youthful, fast B Dub alongside a consistent Koonce. Having one of the most physical corners in the game before injury set in and a truely exceptional athlete that could cover the games best in Doug the grayhound Evans.

having one of the best TE's ever in KJ and another who was a probowler in Chewy. Having strong wr's in Rison,Brooks,Beebe and Freeman. St's were led by Hollingquest,Mikens,jervey, Thomason and HowaRd. We can all discuss who had the better team but we must all admit that the above players made that era very strong along with Brett's awesome play. That team was loaded and actually the Packers 96 D is BETTER THAN THE BEARS 85 D IN MANY AREAS. iT IS insulting for anyone to say that the team that won the trophy,played Denver , and got robbed in Frisco wasn't loaded.

Not really. In '95, we were a young team with an average OL, average RBs, and Robert Brooks. That was pretty much a one-man offense. Favre made those offenses. By the end of the '97 season, our defense had gotten old. Remember how worn down they were towards the end of that year? Our personnel really fell off after that. By 1998, we weren't much better than average. We fought gallantly in the Wild Card. Brett put the team up late, but the refs missed the Rice fumble. Wouldn't have mattered, we didn't have the team to compete with the likes of Minnesota and Atlanta that year.

Was it also Brett Favre's fault that two throws before that throw the Antonio Freeman dropped a would be TD pass after his defender fell down ??? Or does your selective memory black that out ?

Seriously, child molesters are huge periahs in today's society and we have turned our backs on our children. I'm a failing Christain but the one question I would like answered is why can't children pick their own parents and why do children constantly love and forgive their abusing parents? Why do people get more upset when some dogs are hung or electicuted but a child rapist can rpe a 8 year old girl, bury her alive and basicly get a slap on the wrist?

He should have been sentenced to a couple hours with her father. I'm all for thinking animal abusers should be sent up the river, but this trash should just be shot.

Am I a racist for wanting illegal aliens to be prosecuted? I will open my arms to immigrants who became citizens but to the rest, go home and let your own country of origin take care of you. mexico's biggest export is poverty!

Ziggy got me thinking about how insignificant this all is. You take your Favre and I'll stick with brady, nuff said.


Crap, this thread is ruined now. I'll take Favre in his crime too.

Have fun with the RR stuff. Let me know if it ends up in football again.

:jack: :jack:


Cheers,

I have two boys and one daughter. I couldn't imagine what I'd do if I found out somebody raped one of my children and the judge basicly let him off?

I'm done, I have five boys coming over for a sleepover tomorrow night. I'd better get some sleep.

Bulldog is full of it. Brady has always had ridiculous teams. They hit on a slew of draft picks and got very, very lucky.
