Manning.

Peyton Manning is a GREAT QB and a sure fire first ballot HOF!
But sorry folks, in the postseason Tom Brady has outperformed him...........by a LOT!!!
Brady is 14-3 in the postseason throwing to the likes of Troy Brown (who was GREAT, but Brady clearly made him better), David Patten and David Givens (Brady had one postseason with Moss and Welker).
Meanwhile, Manning is 7-8 in the postseason throwing to the likes of Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark.
BOTH have had great regular season records (I think they are a game or two apart), but the postseason has belonged to Brady.
Once again, this isn't a "homer" pick. I'd be saying the same thing if I lived in Timbucktoo, Idaho!
VERY subjective argument, especially since in this discussion you are basing it on record alone. Of course in some ways wins and losses are all that matters, but their playoff records are a product of a lot more than just the QB.
You bring up the receivers, but forget to mention the fact that the Patriots' defense has always been miles better than the Colts' defense. That's a factor you cannot ignore.

Crabtree signed a 6 year deal with the 49ers, the same deal that was offered to him in July, his holdout gained him nothing.
For some reason, I can NOT see Mr. Prima-Donna-Tree getting along with Mike Singletary. I hope Coach woops that boy into shape!
Only in Baseball and Basketball and for longer than you have been breathing. I am not on ANY bandwagon. Never have been. Real sports Fans are not on those. And BTW being a fan should not make one blind to cheating.
Chiefs Put Dwayne Bowe on the Trading Block!

Yeah, that's about 2 weeks old, and Haley will do whatever it takes to make the team into a winner. After Croyle's first game I'd expect even Cassel to be expendable if they didn't sign such a large contract with him.
I think Crabtree could be pretty huge for the 49ers, they were talking about it this morning on the radio about how with this kind of talent you don't need them to learn the complete system before they start getting some play time. Putting him in the game during passing situations and having him cross the middle, or in goal line situations he's a huge target... I think it will be interesting to watch him try and catch Harvin's stats which I think he could do pretty quickly with the 49ers offense clicking the way it is.

Good points made here. There are many ways to measure a players greatness. The lack of rings doesn't deter me from admiring a QB's talent. Bradshaw's numbers were not in the company of some of the names here, but 4 rings speak loud and clear also. With all the years Manning has left in his career, rings may still be in his future too. With or without them, he is still one of the best I have ever seen in my nearly 52 years.
Nice post Matt.
If the Chiefs trade Bowe, they will truly have no playmakers.
You think Scott Pioli is having buyer's remorse?

No, there's just a lot of people that don't fit what they're trying to do. They've already turned over 30+ players, Carl Peterson put this team in a huge hole.
Some teams were desperate for a WR (see: Jets) and having already traded away one of the better defensive players in the game and a hall of fame TE with gas left in the tank, the team is still rebuilding and good teams do that via the draft.
They are building a run-first team and have had success with the scrub FA WR pickups like Ingram and Wade, Bowe is expendable if the price is right.
Wonder how happy the Raiders would be if they managed to pick him up somehow... JaMarcus and Bowe together again.
It likely wont happen though... the article is from 2 weeks ago. Trade deadline is less than 2 weeks away.

Raiders have signed RB Gary Russell, he was a Raider earlier in the year, and has 100 yards and 3 TDs as a Steeler.
49ers have gotten a roster exemption for Crabtree, they have until 10/19 to activate him, otherwise they'd have to release someone now for a player that's not ready.

But how much different is the money from then till now, that's the important thing.
6yrs vs 6 yrs is not a big deal.
It's basically the deal he would have gotten originally, he has to be the 2nd coming of Randy Moss to void year 6. He got the appropriate deal for his slot. They got nothing for holding out.
Thats great to hear.
I wish they would institute a Rookie cap and pay scale, then after your 2-3 years, then you can get the big pay day.
