I think fans analyze and hang on each and every word each player spits out of their mouth and overanalyzes them. You guys do it to yourselves. Has he played on better teams? Yep. Is he supposed to ******** them and say this is the best team he's played on? Nope, that wouldnt be him.
He's old school and he keeps it real whereas most guys these days keep it fake. Thats why hes my favorite player. Is he the greatest QB ever? Not in my opinion. Marino(though i hate him), Young, Montana, Manning are slightly better in my opinion. But Brett is a warrior and he keeps it real. He is de_real_deal. If you want a phonny, go elsewhere cuz you wont find one in GB this year.
Look at Tom Brady, dude is so fake in his interviews. Like he's reading his comments off a cue card. Carson Palmer is the worst. He's like an old, dried up disgruntled man.
De Real - Brady is better than Manning. He's proving it this year.
Put Brady with an All-Star cast and you'll see him smoking everything Manning will ever accomplish. Keep in mind, Manning had an All-Star cast his ENTIRE career.
I'd take Favre over Manning. Favre makes things happen when there's nothing, absolutely nothing, to work with. Manning was never able to do that.
I'd put Steve Young up there too. He was amazing, but his career wasn't as long.
