Official Superbowl thread

[esoxx]

Take it over to the Tom Brady manlove thread.

Nick, your opinion and mine also doesn't mean much. The masses in the know ,football wise, see it mush closer to me than you but they are all probably wrong also.

Yeah, you're working in the confines of what you think is accpepted knowledge. Let's see Tom's final 12 years wrap up before we crown him on his first 4 years in paradise.

I think 4 super bowl appearance, 5 champioship games, and 6 divisional series trips is pretty damn impressive if he never wins another game.

If he suffered a career ending injury in the preseason next year, I wouldn't be surprised if he was a first ballot HOF'er.

I'll say this about Brady

Let's see how many championships he wins after his first 4 years in paradise before we crown him.


So far

ZERO

If it's just about winning the big one I'm confused as to who you would annoint ahead of Brady. Not many have won 3 big ones.

And it's hard to fault Brady much for the Colt loss when Reche Caldwell drops the TD pass that would have ended that game for Indy

[RashanGary]

Is Troy Aikman the greatest ever? He did very similar things in his career (take away the magical moss season that even made Culpepper look like the best ever).

Guys, I like it better when everyone in here bashes me, it's more fun . I will say this though, I think brady did play pretty tight the last 4 reg season games and during the playoffs. His bad game was last week against the Chargers. He was lucky his team pulled that game out for him cause he played very poorly in that game.

Well no shit

Agree, lets stop with the Brady talk. I can no longer say he has never lost the big one and he lowered himself on my pedestal of QB's tonight. Time to move on, I said it

[Deputy Nutz]

I will say this about Troy Aikman, most of his teams were assembled before the effects of free agency, but he was a throw back QB like Bart Starr, Terry Bradshaw, he didn't make mistakes in big games, he was a very good game manager in the big games and never did anything that put his team in peril. Aikman was extremely accurate all over the field, he had good to great players surrounding him and he took advantage of that. So yes he was an excellent QB.

Aikman had a Hall of Fame RB, a hall of Fame WR, and some future Hall of Fame OL on that squad foe each title.

When did Aikman have near the statistical career of this year

Truth be told if you look at Aikman's annual numbers you won't see any outstanding statistical years, even with a loaded offensive unit every year

I agree. Time to peel off the Brady poster from the ceiling and move on. It's over.

You can say the same about Starr.

A couple more things:

Does anyone think that the Kraft's are not going to be very happy that BB left the field before the loss was official? What a classless jerk!

Why wasn't Shockey on the sidelines with his team?

Did anyone else think Troy looked like a scrub and Joe Buck was dressed to impress?
