Bullshit. Peyton had Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harrison for a few games, and ... who else?

Yeah, not so much. All year, including the play-offs, Marvin Harrison has 20 receptions (that's like 1.5, 2 games total). source (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=3514)

As an example of the injuries the Colts had to deal with this year, when they played the Chargers the first time in week six: (from here) (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/wire?section=nfl&id=3189177)

"Manning relied on a makeshift offense that started the game without receivers Marvin Harrison and Anthony Gonzalez, tight end Dallas Clark, left tackle Tony Ugoh and then lost right tackle Ryan Diem during the game with yet another injury."

They didn't even have enough players to dress a full NFL roster of 45. They had ZERO offensive line backups left.

Also, for the second half of their season, the Colts were without Dwight Freeney. I think most of us realize that if he was playing, Phillip Rivers and Billy Volek would have spent a lot more time on the ground or throwing picks.

But these are not excuses. The Colts were beaten, fair and square, and now they're done for the season. What I'm saying is that for the most injured team in the NFL (maybe the Rams had more), the fact that they managed to get a #2 seed in the AFC and finish with a 13-4 season is pretty impressive. Maybe not as impressive as going 17-0 so far, but I think the Colts came back pretty well the year after they won the Super Bowl, which not many teams have done lately.

But anyway, my main point is that before we starting anointing Tom Brady as the best QB in the history of the world, you need to look at his career numbers. This is the only year he has ever put up numbers like these. Until this year, he has never had a passer rating above 100. Manning's rating of 98.0 this year is his lowest since 2002. Brady got over 25% of his career touchdowns this year, his eighth in the league. Manning has been at the top of the league in numbers for almost every year since he's been in the NFL. They're both probably first ballot hall of famers, but I think it's way to early to call either one the best QB ever which a lot of people are wanting to do. I think that's pretty disrespectful to players like Johnny Unitas and Joe Montana.

You missed the italics = sarcasm memo.

[Sean of the Thread]

The italics denote sarcasm for future reference wormser.

[BigWorm]

Yeah, I figured that out after I posted. That's good to know, because I would never use sarcasm.

Also, Bill Belichick is a douche.
