I'll always rate Brady higher than Manning, and not just because of the rings. Given what both QBs have had to work with in their career what Brady has accomplished is incredible. He's had very few weapons at WR. Gronk has been injured constantly in recent times. He constantly single handedly drags that organisation into the playoffs, (god knows how he managed to canter to the number 2 spot in the AFC with all the injuries on defence, and no one to throw to on offence) having to put up huge points every week because of the terrible defence, especially last year.

 

The couple SB losses to the Giants shouldnt mask what an incredible clutch player he is. If the defence actually showed up in the 2 games, and Welker caught the easy pass in the 4th we could be looking at someone in the modern era with 5 SB wins. The amount of second half and 4th quarter comebacks he seems to do is amazing.

 

Surround Brady with the talent that Manning has had, and it wouldnt even be a debate. If Manning cant win the Superbowl with this Broncos team then he wont win another one. To do that he'll probably have to a) beat Brady (which he always struggles to do) and b) win in the cold (which he always struggles to do)
