Quote:The 2006 AFC game was the de facto SB of that year. If Patriots won that game, they win the SB against the Bears. And that game was definitely one of Manning's most important games in his career. 

 

This game, too, is also one of his most important games in his career. The supporting casts he has this year are some of the best he has had in his career.  He is at home and is the favorite in this game. Conversely, Brady's supporting casts are banged up -- no Gronk, and his defense is as bad as always. If Brady pulls this one off,the argument on who is the better QB should officially end.
