He never plays that great over the course of a game to anyone watching. He's not a playmaker. The argument that Brady fans have is that he's such a great leader and QB that everyone around him plays better thats why the team wins.

As opposed to Peyton Manning who isn't mentally tough enough to play in big games and his lack of ability to lead is what makes his teammates fold around him.

Its a bullshit argument to me, but many believe this to be so.

Quarterbacks are the reasons teams win and lose championships and the winning teams quarterback beat the losing teams quarterback and thats why one group of 55 players are champs and the other are not.

Somewhere along the years someone took the very agreeable fact that the QB is the most important single position on a team and skewed it to make fans think that its the most important single aspect of a team. Thus when a team wins its because the Quarterback, and when a team loses its a because the quarterback. Only rather simply minds can't distinguish the vast difference between being the most important player and the most important aspect.

There are many aspects of a football team; the quarterback, the playcaller, the running backs, blockers, receivers, defensive line run stoppers, pass rushers, line backers, defensive backs, kicking unit, punt team, offensive line. The quarterback may be more important that a few of these aspects but not all or most. The best QB on the planet can be on a team with a below average everything else an he will look like shit. And the worst starting QB can be on a team the with best everything else and he will look like a star.

Tom Brady is a very good and competent starting QB, and a real asset to a team you are trying to build into a Champion. But if the team doesn't have at least 80% of the other aspects playing at a very high level they will not win games. And when the aspects around Brady break down he looks as bad as some of the worst QBs in the league. Even in this last game, when the pressure was coming up the middle quickly he was throwing balls in the dirt, and hastily getting rid of the ball to cause interceptions and what should have been an intentional grounding penalty.

I hope the NFL is smart enough to renovate the Hall Of Fame so when Tommy gets there, he's got his own arena sized section. Gotta recognize the greatest to ever do it.
