With Tom Brady having completed the greatest season of any quarterback, ever, on top of his other accomplishments, can safely put the rest the notion that he's over-rated and agree that he belongs in the same sentence as Montana, Elway, and Favre? Has the resurgence of Brett Favre given him claim to the top spot?

Punisher had the audacity to claim that Brady didn't belong in the top 20? Still stand by that?
Yes i do. How many field goals did they have to kick in that game? Good thing their kicker didn't miss any of those or they would've lost. I would like to see you put tom brady down by 4 in any huge game and expect a montana/elway drive (he was down by 4 in the colts game last year and guess what happened, belicheck had to give him the hemlich manuever afterwards). The fact of the matter is the man has never had a huge last second td drive yet still has earned the title of clutch. He's had countless fg drives but thats not how "great" teams win games. I will also direct you to a quote i made earlier this year about how stacked the patriots are (in the preseason) and if brady didn't go undefeated it would be a meltdown.

You can come at me with that "a win is a win" bullshit and i'll tell you well "a fumble is supposed to be a fumble" but sometimes people see things the wrong way. Screen passes, one player suspended for steroids this year on their roster (seymour), and spy gate, yeah it was by far the most unquestionable best season ever . If the giants can keep them within 3, you better hope they don't have to deal with gb's defense in the superbowl.
