Oh wait, he has.Maybe that's why when you take out the one superbowl he was labelled a choke artist in the playoffs.

Of course he does, and when he does everyone blames Manning, because he's supposed to be the best. When you're the best you get the blame. The fact that Brady gets excuses made for him tells me what he really is. Just another great player that needs great players to make great plays for him. Brady is a great player who plays great. So is Eli, and Ben, and Drew. Peyton is simply the best player who plays the best. Unfortunately if all he plays is great his team still loses 9 out of 10 times, and if he plays not so great or poorly his team gets blown out 9 out of 10 times. The last two AFC Championship games Brady played in he threw for 209 yards 2 TDs and 3INTs with no ball going more than 18 yards against SD, and 239 yards no TDs and 2 INTs (with 2 more called back on penalties, and no ball more than 23 yards and Tommy boy wins both games and his team bails him out 9 out of 10 times.
And the one year Peyton's team bails him out in the playoffs he wins it all. So I say again, give Peyton a team that can bail him out when he has a less than great game and then we'll see some rings. Because right now of the 8 seasons Manning lost in the playoffs there are 5 or 6 times where he played as well or better than the opposing QB and the Colts lost the game, and despite 2 point something yards a carry on runs, and 1 point something seconds time in the pocket to pass the ball, and a defense that continuously lets up close to 200 rush yards per game and 8 minute drives, a lot of these losses were pretty close.
If that happens to Brady most people say "How can you expect Brady to win under those conditions". No one says that for Manning, and rightly so, just as long as they understand exactly how much better than Brady Manning really is.
Like I said, if Manning ends up with the Cheifs, Bears or Ravens, or a team like them next year and they don't win it all, I'll take it all back.
OG Jaydc:
Brady just made it to the superbowl with one of the worst defenses in the league. Peyton manning has never played on a team with a defense as bad as the pats have had the last few seasons. They are horrendous.

Love how Brady has been "bailed out" with the 32nd ranked defense in the NFL.
A worse defense than the one that cost him a ring in 2008.

This year the Pats let up 21.4 points per game. The 2006 Championship Colts let up 22.5 points per game. In the playoffs the Pats 16.2 and the Colts 17.0
Just face it, the Pats win this game with a healthy Peyton Manning. Peyton never gets the safety, he hits Gronk in the endzone and he hits Welker on the numbers. He also hits Branch in stride on that one Branch drop that Brady threw behind him.
