Maybe Belichick would send them Brady this off-season.

Favre had a lot of control at the line of scrimmage toward the middle and the later years here in Green Bay he could do what he wanted with Sherman coaching him.

Didn't everybody pretty much do what they wanted when Sherman was the coach there?

No not really, but Favre really did. That is when he changed because Sherman let him get away with everything. He became very entitled. Also, when his dad passed away, his dad would have kicked his ass with some of the b.s. he pulled towards the end of his career.

I'm thinking most QBs who are good enough to stay employed as undisputed starting QBs in their mid to late 30s are going to start doing their own thing, irrespective of what an OC/HC wants. By that time they've generated 10-15 years of experience, and have seen pretty much everything an OC or HC sees anyway, though that doesn't mean they'd be as wise as an older HC/OC.

I am trying to recall, but I thought Jim Kelly called his own plays. But I can't think of anyone who made all the pre-snap adjustments like Manning does. He doesn't just make a hot read to wide out. He is calling out blocking assignments/blitz pick-ups and changing the play several times.

That 5:30 CSN sports show was debating best ever at QB. It seems like the folks who do not pick Manning as the best ever do so because they hate all the media and fan love for Manning. The excuses they were coming up with were lame. I guess you could debate 1-5 best ever, but it just seems like when everything is said and done, he is on top of them all. More impressively, he doesn't seem to have the arm strength and certainly not the athletic ability of many of the other folks. The only natural asset he has is height. Prior to Manning, I always thought Marino was the best passer I ever saw because I don't measure best player by number of titles.

Didn't he have elite strength when he was younger? I want to say between 1998 and...maybe 2011 or so, right before he sat out a year.

this is true. drew brees goes into "breesus mode" a lot more now, and he never seems to get reprimanded for it.

Manning had all the physical tools at one time except mobility. His arm strength was once good to very good before his injury.

Right, but we're talking about football, not photo shoots.

I personally don't think there can be much in the way of reprimands. At that point, for decorated and established QBs like Brees, any play caller is likely to be your peer as opposed to a mentor. The QB is as likely to know what to do as the play caller is...somewhat.

whatever reprimands are appropriate for a quarterback who's costing your team the game.

Honestly, you just cant ignore the mediocrity in the post season. If you argue he hasnt been mediocre, ok.

But this thought of "I dont judge players by championships" is ridiculous. What are they playing for? I mean, No Eli Manning is not better than Dan Marino, but you cant just ignore POOR post season play and people shrinking from the moment.

Clutch exists baby!
