Talk:Who's better, Peyton Manning or Tom Brady?/@comment-11142-20060310121816

"QB Challenge" - do we judge baseball players based on the Home Run Derby? Give me a break. Those stupid skill tests mean nothing. "The quarterback isn&quot;t that important to the Patriots" - I believe you&quot;ve confused the New England Patriots with the Baltimore Ravens. Understandable, but a key difference is that the Pats don&quot;t have any murderous thugs on their team, and they&quot;ve won three superbowls. Just keep repeating that to yourself. "Bailed out" by "Adam V&quot;s heroics"? (His name is Vinatieri, by the way.). What alternate reality are you living in? One might point out that only the quarterback gets the kicker close; all the kicker does is get the three points. The kicker only gets a chance to perform his "heroics" if the rest of the team gets him close enough. You make it sound as though Vinatieri carried the whole team on hsi back, when all he does is perform one specific task. Any decent kicker could do what Vinatieri has done - most haven&quot;t had the opportunity because their QBs aren&quot;t as good in the clutch as Brady. No one is, no one playing in the NFL today, anyway.
