[QUOTE="wpr, post: 174194, member: 198"] Mike, I mean you no disrespect but what in the heck are you talking about? The players averages are what they are. Overlook Manning's best year because it is his best? What do you want Olympic style scoring? (Toss out the high and the low and take the average of the years that are left?) Manning's best year was 49 TD's so what? When I came up with the averages I already threw out Brett's first two years because he did not start every game. Manning DID. It is a credit to the young man that he could do that. Very few QBs even if they are drafted in the 1st round start all 16 games their rookie season. Are you going to remove all 3 years that Brett was the MVP (just for balance)? Like it has been said time and time again whatever Manning does in his career does not diminish what Favre has achieved in his career. I was just trying to show that Manning does have a chance to surpass Brett IF he stays healthy and IF he continues to play like he has. There are no guarantees that he will or he won't. For the record- Manning's TD total's are 26, 26, 33, 26, 27, 29, 49, 28, 31 = 275 that is a 30.56 average. Remove the high and the average is still 28.25. Which means that it is possible for him to pass Brett if he were to play 5 seasons after Brett retires AND continue to perform at his career average. (Manning is 6 years younger than Brett so it is possible.) He may do like Brett and have a year or two were he is below his average towards the end of his career and then he may have a year or two where he is above his average. Brett's REAL TD stats are 0, 18, 19, 33, 38, 39, 35, 31, 22, 20, 32, 27, 32, 30, 20, 18 = 414 that is 25.88. Remove Brett's best year and it is only 25 TD per season. [/QUOTE]
