1] Oh....so the QB doesn't make much difference to whether a team wins or loses?
2] If a team is good enuff to win a championship, it doesn't matter who the QB is.....I get it.
3] So, the Chicago Bears would have lost whether it was Rex Grossman or Dan Marino at the helm, and the Colts would have won whether they had Peyton Manning or Rex Grossman....
4] This is one of your most brilliant points!!!! A quarterback is measured only by how many yards he passes for...winning and losing is irrelevant, because that is a "team accomplishment".
5] And you actually really put your foot in it when you claimed Marino is second all time in comebacks...and in the same breath credit Vinatieri with all the Patriots comebacks.....
6] one of Marino's classic trademarks was getting the team in field goal range at the end of the game....of all those comebacks you mention, how many were kicks?
1] A great Kicker, a great RB a great defensive front 7 makes just as much as a differance as a QB to win a game. Thats a Fact !
2] You never heard of Trent Dilfer? Get out more !!!!
3] Any game if regular season, post season or championship are all Team accomplishments..The media & the sport overhypes them for the sale & label individual players is just wrong...and you know it...its a great team accomplishment & 53 men on that roster are responsable for the outcome espeially the coaches.
4] Spin away so you can feel like you actually are making a point...I never said that ...your being a "Therick"...smarten up!!
5] without Adam Veniteiri "0" SuperBowl rings...it looked to me like Brady couldn't & didn't get the ball in the End Zone to win...he only got in FG range to win, what if they need 4 pts ?\
6] I think 60,000 yds & 420 TD passes and about 30 other NFL History making QB records pretty much credits Marino...not his Kicker...
Tom Brady is not Dan Marino, or Manning... his 1st 6 whole season Brady didn't even have 1 single QB passing record...how many time do i have to say it before it sinks into any of your thick heads...
Brady averaged 8th in QB Rating as I posted directly from the NFL, 2 seasons he was ranked 9th & one season 10th even...1 6th and 1 season 7th and this year 1st....
Of course it doesn't mean anything because he doesn't wear a Patriot uniform but Manning ranked 1st in QB rating the last 3 consecutuive years from 2003-2006...unless its Brady it really doesn't count...can't you idiots see what your trying to say..
