Bart Scott tells you what's what:

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/06/19/bart-scott-every-defensive-player-would-rather-face-tom-brady-than-peyton-manning/

And he's right.

Oddly enough, no. He just isn't.

Quick single example is Michael Strahan, who has said he feared playing Brady more than Manning.

No idea if anybody has polled them, but "every" defensive player is demonstrably false.

What else is new?

But if a guy who regularly got beaten by Brady while having a career that started later and ended a decade earlier wants to diss ol' Tom, he should go ahead and do so. It is, after all, about the clicks!

Joe is for COMPROMISE

Nice.

Now - explain how we could help that mother (of the 20-week non developing fetus) get her abortion while also protecting the healthy unborn.

Interesting article the seems to indicate Watson may get a lesser suspension than the NFL wants. Or perhaps none at all.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/07/04/taking-a-closer-look-at-the-nfls-case-against-deshaun-watson/

.eanwhile, the Browns get a pick for Baker about a round later than I expected.

It's not just that Brady is the greatest QB of all time - it's that it isn't even close.

https://abolt.newsweek.com/s/honest-best-nfl-quarterbacks

The distance between TB12 and number two is the same as the distance between number two and just above number five.

P.S. Peyton is not number two and Montana didn't make the top ten.

It's a formula.

Your argument is that results are overrated.

Good luck with that.

And Staubach is richer.

So is Dwayne Johnson.

Of course, Staubach is 80. I suspect that when Staubach was Brady's age (and a few years past retirement at 38), he was not worth as much in equivalent dollars as Brady is now.

And, of course, the Brady household is richer than the Staubach household.

But wealth is not an indication of greatness in one's sport. It gives you a leg up, but that's all.

Your comment is like a response to a chart that showed LeBron to be the greatest basketball player ever (which I am not claiming, just using to make a point) and then you said:

"And Junior Bridgeman is richer."

I wonder how Ion Tiriac and Anna Kasprzak feel about this topic.
