[QUOTE="TJV, post: 370482, member: 4300"] [FONT=Verdana][COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]I heard a discussion on this topic on the radio this afternoon and someone said Brady, Rodgers and Manning in that order. That’s how I would rank them, particularly regarding ivo610’s criteria:[B]Who is better right now? So take some of last season and some of what you expect in 2011 and tell me who is better[/B].
