I think Akili Smith would be a good QB for the patriots! I think its the system and the players around him. Remember what happened last year without Welker, Moss and Co.

 

That's a weak argument. Here's what happened last season:

 

12-4 Division Champs, AFC Runner-Up. 61.8 Completion Pct. 3529 Yards 24 TDs and 12 Ints. QB Rating of 87.9 (9th in the league). What's the matter with that? You can't win the Super Bowl every year. By the way Brady has been in the top 10 in QB Rating EVERY year he's been the starter. He has the 4th highest rating ever. He's been great no matter who he's been throwing to.

Horrible argument. He didnt have those guys when he won his previous 3 Super Bowls, did he?!?!

Not yet!

Yeah, he made it to the AFC Championship game and the team imploded in the second half. Brady makes that system go. Let's not forget, Bledsoe, who was a very very capable QB for years couldn't get the machine going when it counted. Even beyond that, it's how Brady performs when the game has to be put away. He's the best clutch QB since, at least, Montana.

He does not have the stats, but if he keeps up his stats like this year, not 50 TDs or anything, but 30 a year, he could be the best ever. He has the rings and wins.

He will be considered one of the best ever. He is only 30 and probably about to win his 4th super bowl.

How will he not be?

If he's not then who is?

He is leading a team that is about to go 19-0.

And the rings at the moment.

I bet Derek Anderson could throw 50 TD's for the Patriots. Before this season Tom Brady was lucky to throw 25 TD's in a season.

Is that why he did it 3 times before this season?

Johnny Unitas.

Look at the receivers he had. His best ever before this year, when he left, became an average AT BEST receiver for the Seahawks. He has not had talent at receiver until this year.

10 years from now most people will say that he was the best to ever play the game. I don't think any other QB in the league outside of possibly Peyton Manning would have this team 18-0, so there goes the Akili Smith argument. Brady wins, he's clutch, he can pass, he's finally got recievers, c'mon he made Deion Branch look like a #1 reciever. If he had played with Moss, Welker and Stallworth all along it's hard telling how many rings he would have by now.

Nice jab...:lol:

I think he is...and IF they win this year he will be the only QB (of the greats) to go undefeated and the only one to win 18-19 games. He also IMO does not have the HOF's surrounding him that many of the other greats QB's has on offense (with the exception of Moss this year). Montana threw to the best receiver ever, Bradshaw threw to 2 HOF's as well as a HOF rb. This is def subjective but I think when they win this week it will seal his legacy as best ever.

Guys, I can't believe I forgot about John Elway. Does anyone have his numbers? I know he has 2 Superbowl wins, doesn't he have 5 apperances overall? He may be the best if Brady isn't.
