It's a fact that idiots like you call Brady a dink and dunker, yes.
But the actual facts don't support that. So while you're spouting about not 'insulting Marino' why don't you stop to notice that Brady's stats are nearly identical in that area of which you speak?
Why do you argue what you know is the absolute truth...Weis himself has quoted they were labeled the "East Coast Dink & Dunkers"...
Why do you losers even try ??..heres tom brady calculated last year alone in attempts...and see the greatest of All Time at # 11 in "Dinking & Dunken" attempts.

2006 QB in Review
Posted by Chase Stuart on Wednesday, March 14, 2007
Over the summer, we looked at the worst and best passers since the NFL merger. With 2006 in the books, a supplement to those blogs became necessary.
As a group, NFL QBs averaged 5.825 adjusted yards per attempt in 2006, which is in line with prior data. For those needing a quick refresher, here’s how we score each QB. Adjusted yards per attempt is calculated by taking a QB’s passing yards, subtracting 45 yards for every INT, adding 10 yards for every passing TD, and dividing by total pass attempts. Then we take the difference between the individual’s adjusted yards per attempt and the league average, and multiply by total attempts (this is because a great QB that throws 500 times is more valuable than a great QB that throws 400 times.)
Here’s a list of how many points each QB scored last year (only those with 100 attempts shown here):
1058 Peyton Manning 7.72
956 Drew Brees 7.55
