Then this is a hopeless debate.

If Peyton Manning puts up those kinds of stats, his team will win. That is, unless his defense shits the bed in an outrageous, unforeseen way, which of course makes it not his fault.

Like I've said a couple times already, the only way to silence Pats fans and Manning-bashers is to waits a few years, at which point Manning will have his ring. Arguing whether he or not his "fate" is never to win a Super Bowl is clearly pointless.

As for that last part of Jayman's post, half the reason you take Brady is because his defense is 100 times more likely to get him the ball back for a second scoring drive.

I can't believe this is still going on. Peyton Manning in my mind has lost one game in the playoffs that he absolutely should have won.. and that was last year against the Steelers.

The defense wasn't completely horrible, Manning just didn't put up the numbers. He was home and a huge favorite.

However, look at Tom Brady last year. I don't care if he has three rings, he was awful against the Broncos. That interception he threw to Champ Bailey was horrible..

It happens to everyone. Manning will have his day.. Maybe even this year and then this can stop.

Tom Brady is Troy Aikman.

Peyton Manning is Johnny Unitas.
