Fuck Tom Brady for many reasons.

1. he was never better than peyton manning
2. he has one of the greatest head coaches of all time
3. spygate
4. his spread offense cheese in the nfl
5. dump off passes
6. wes welker
7. his defense and coaching got him those rings that placed everyone on his dick in the first place.

[FUSE]

Definitely a good and well thought out article by Deviant. I think within the next year or 2 we can dethrone him. And This is coming from me. I hate everything about Tom Brady an the Patriots. I hate them more than the Raiders and im a broncos fan

Because it had nothing to do with the fact that he was putting up great numbers with Deion Branch and David Givens.

Matt Cassell says hi. Its the system man..the coaching around the players.

His raw numbers really weren't that "great"..until Moss came to town. You can't argue the results he got with those WR's(The Super Bowls) but his numbers weren't that "great". You also can't argue that the Pat's had some pretty damn good defense and special teams play those seasons that helped Brady out.

In 2 of the Pat's Super Bowl seasons Brady had a QB rating in the 80's. In 2003 he didn't even make the Pro Bowl.

I think people assume Brady has been putting up eye popping stats for years but in reality he has only thrown for 30TD's ONCE in his career. He's a very good QB but I think the Super Bowls he has won and media exposure has made him seem like more a statistical beast than he really is/was.

In response to the actual article... Dethrone him from what? I never thought he was the best QB in the NFL.

No, better article would be about dethroning the Patriots.

Who will be the team of this decade?

Da Bears.

[Champ]

NY giants.

The only time i thought Tom Brady was the best QB in the game was when Peyton had the inability to win the big game.

Now that he has i dont see how anyone can have Brady higher than Manning unless your a Pats fan, and we all know how fans of Boston teams feel about their teams.

[PEYMAN18]

The Lions.

Probably should have clarified on the bold a bit more. After looking around at a lot of lists, seeing a lot of opinions, and listening to people, it seems as if most still see Tom Brady as a #1-#3 quarterback in the NFL. I'm not hating on the guy, I think he's phenomenal at what he does in the Patriots system because he clearly makes it work. However, there's no way (in my mind) that Brady's one of the elite quarterbacks in the NFL today. Not too long ago, many had Brady and Manning as 1a/1b and people still try to find the Manning/Brady of this decade, but he's not that great of a quarterback to me. Then again, I guess he has been the second most successful quarterback of the decade.

lol you're a fucking moron. I understand a lot of people don't like Tom Brady, but going with everyone else to fit in really isn't worth making yourself look this stupid in one post.

1. He was very arguably better than Peyton Manning for many years if for no other reason than he was winning super bowls and putting up damn good numbers with a lame supporting offensive cast. Just like you use Brady's "great defense" as an (albeit fucking retarded) argument against him, can you not say the same thing about Peyton having Harrison, Wayne, Clark, others, and a great OL for his entire career?

2. Are you really going to penalize every single QB with good coaching, good supporting casts, or good defenses like you're doing with Brady right now? Somehow I doubt it. And if you are, give me some examples of great QB's with bad defenses who never help them, bad WR's who never help them, and incompetent coaches. Because quite honestly Brady is the only QB in recent memory to do so much with so little.

3. Exactly what in the hell did Tom Brady have to do with spygate?

4. The spread offense comment takes the "Reeks of dumbass" award for the day though. Do you not realize that Brady ran a west coast (And won a super bowl with it, and shitty weapons) unlike Manning or Brees for that matter who have run a heavy spread their entire careers?

5. Who doesn't use screens and dumpoffs from time to time, and how in the fuck is it a relevant argument against one of the most accurate deep passers in the history of the game?

6. He won 3 super bowls before he threw a pass to either welker or moss in his life... when he was throwing to pieces of shit like the againg troy brown, david patten, david givens, and deion branch.

I've been confused about all that for a little while.

Frankly, I think Brady was in a great system and had a good defense. This is the Matt Cassel argument... But, then, Cassel had Welker and Moss. But, then, Welker really wasn't any good before 2007. That goes back to the system... It's a quagmire. A rubik's cube.

Peyton calls his own plays... Allegedly.

Besides that, though, he's had Harrison, Wayne, and Clark... Really, though, we'll never know how good those guys are without him until they're without him. We've seen him throw multiple interceptions at least once when he was without them... Hmmm...
