Put Peyton in Brady's position and I bet he wins just as many SB's. Same with the rest of the elite QB's in the league. Not some mediocre scrub like Bledsoe.
First off, in his prime Bledsoe was not a scrub.He also led the pats to the superbowl in 97, but we will get to tall that later in this post.
I bet Ne does not win a superbowl with Manning as the qb. Manning could not win one with better talent around him. What makes you think he can win one with less? What makes you think the pats players would respect a guy notorious for throwing his players under the bus when things do not work out? Throwing his arms up in disgust when a teamate botches a play. Do not start either, all those years Brady and Manning squared off Manning had a massive advantage on the offensive side of the ball. In 2003 the pats where pegged to have absolutely no shot against that beast of an offense. Not a sole gave them a chance, then Manning choked and the savage pats d held them to three points. Brady went to work and the rest is history It was the same story time after time. You act like Bellichiks "System" is some big secret that every other coach in the league does not know about,studied or used in some way. All the nfl coaches learned the game of football with the same information.The NFL is a copy cat league. Everyone emulates or uses variations of things that win. Bill's system is variations of things everyone knows about. There is no big secret to it. Again, Bellicheck is a defensive genius, yes. Even then, it is all variations of things all coaches and coordinates know about. Bill just happens to be the best at what he does. It has been six years now. Dungy is a great coach, with a great system, Just watch the 2001 - 2006 seasons. The problem was never the system or talent, it was getting outplayed. Or manning folding under pressure. At the time Bledsoe played for NE , he was far from a scrub. He had just inked a huge deal over an extended period of time. He was the first overall pick in the draft. At the time when he started for NE he was thought of in a different light then he is now. He was in his prime. Lets talk about manning in 6 years,if he is still playing. Then equate his skills to when he is playing over the hill and past his prime. Drew has pretty good career numbers, look them up. You claimed to stick any "decent" QB in his spot and you get the same result. Bledsoe was better then "decent", at the time he was in NE. He led them to a superbpwl in 97, but you didnt know that. He had over 4000 yards passing in 96. But you said "decent" so we will stick with that. Further more, back in Clevelend Billichick had "decent" nfl qb's and his system tanked there for three years. He is a genius, but players need the ability to make it happen. You are better then decent if you are still starting in the NFL 300 years after your prime, like Bledsoe is/was.
Stop ignoring the facts, Manning has choked every single time all the pressure was layed square on him. If anyone is reliant on a system it is him. When it comes down to do or die, and all the marbles rest on him, he has failed for years on end. With all his weapons and all his big time receivers. When it is up to him, and the system cannot help him, he chokes.Time after time after time. While Brady has not. Brady has all the mvps and rings to prove it. All the huge playoff performances and wins when it was all rested on his shoulders. All the stats/videos of games where it happened are there mang. Everything I said occured. You are speculating, even then all the proof points against what you are saying.
If you would like to debate something, stop ignoring what you said, or the facts. Stop making claims without facts to back them up. There is mountains of evidence against your claim. Yet, none to support it. Just look at Brady's resume and stats. Hell, pull the games up on youtube. Lets see some proof.There is no one more clutch, well besides Montana. Keep the huge stats and white uniforms, well take the clutch guy who gets the job done and wins superbowls. I think you are jelous, like you admited in another post I have saved. So, you say anything to discredit or cut Brady down. We all see that by now. Holds true to most anything you do not agree with. You make statments, but ignore the pile of evidence that refute's every word you type. Ignore all Brady has accomplished and make wild claims! You are one sided with arguments.
BTW, I think Manning is one of the greatest qb's ever, who could get his ring this year. So save me the manning basher accusations. Stating facts and stats that actually happened is not hating. I made the comment for pure skill, manning is second to none.
