How is your answer not Brady is the clear cut greatest? Also Brady wasn't really an innovator like some historical QBs. Didn't really invent anything new. Just played very well for a very long time, on many strong teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretend this year at age 44 was his peak. 5316 yards 40 TDs 12 INT. What? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not better than Rodgers, who received the All Pro nod. I'm saying his peak is about what other top QBs achieve. Not higher, and usually lower.

Trojan Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I wouldn't say Aaron Rodgers was an entire tier better than Brady this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just try to judge the player on what they can do in a competitive game. So you're all about...the eye test? Do you see it in their eyes? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point wasn't that Rodgers was better, just that I don't think Brady was higher than his peers. Which has pretty much been the case for his entire career.

Watching a player and asking myself, "have I ever seen a player play as good as this?" is certainly one criterion out of several. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant greatest literally means one person, and it doesn’t matter if they didn’t dominate their sport like someone in another sport did. You can also look in recent NFL history. Aaron Donald has 7 straight All Pros and with 3 DPOY in the mix. Has Brady ever elevated himself above his QB peers the way Donald has his DT peers?

RuskieTitan Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I hope he plays for one more season, if nothing more than to spite Adam Schefter. And Tom is the type to do something like that too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
