Hate to say this, but Eli is looking awfully good.  A win for him today and in 2 weeks and a new debate begins.

I think Peyton is better. Peyton just has to do so much more than Tom does (until the past few years). Brady was a system quarterback when he was winning Super Bowls and didn't become a huge numbers guy until Welker and Moss got here. Peyton has been doing this his whole career

So take away Harrison, Wayne, Edgerin James, Dallas Clark, etc and give him Troy Brown, David Patten, no rb, and Deion Branch.....

THEN....

give Harrison, Wayne, Edge, Clark, etc to Tom

and then what happens?

Like 9 Super Bowls for Tom and negative one for Peyton?

Give Tom Indy's defense and what would he do?

Since Tom lost his elite defense he has lost a Super Bowl and is about to appear in another. Hmm that sure sounds a lot like how Peyton Manning has done

Right now I would say yes actually. If I had to pick one to be on my team, I would still pick Peyton because imo he has a much better deep ball, but both are elite.

Coaching staffs would probably be a fair point of consideration.

let's not forget weather and parents. How supportive parents are matters a lot. Plus there's college coaching staffs staying in touch and how supportive one's endorsement partners are

I wonder what would have happened if Brady had played in a dome all those years and Peyton had played in the snow. 

Cmon cmon. Let's get as many excuses in there as possible so we can make 5-2 look more like 3-3 or 2-5 if just for a couple differences

If Eli goes to the Super Bowl than you pretty much gotta say Eli did more with less in a shorter amount of time

Tom Brady by far, and I'm a Peyton Manning fan.

Peyton during the regular season is superb. I cant make the argument that he's better than Tom Terrific though, due to his post season records.
