    That game sucked! It was as much Denver's horrible play if not more... They didn't even compete. Manning is a choker...period.. Brady would have made it a game at least...

    Denver looked out of it for sure. But the way Seattle hit hard, swarmed to the ball, played as a team was a thing of beauty.

    34 of 49, for 280 yds. Peyton didn't lose the game for Denver. The entire team lost the game in every facet.

    I agree, but he looked like crap for the majority of the game. The 2 interceptions were on him. The one he threw right to the defense and the other, he should have tucked the ball and took the sack (but his guy could have made an effort for it as well) early on, he was missing receivers by a lot.

    It was over before he got going, but no one else showed up either, especially the o line

    It was the most epic failure I've seen in a Super Bowl. Loved every minute of it :)

    Mannings stats don't mean anything in this game. How many completions over 10 yards did he have? 3? 4?

    That secondary was in his head. Every pass was a short screen or slant and Seattle didn't miss any tackles.

    Tom Brady shows up for big games, this goes back to his college days.

    Brady led Michigan to an overtime win in the Orange Bowl over Alabama, throwing for 369 yards and four touchdowns.

    Lets look at Peyton's last college game 31 Attempts, 21 Completions for 134 yds. 1 TD, 1 INT and cost Michigan our outright NC, I hate that guy:)

    Lost 42-17

    Who cares about Tom Brady. Did he make it the super bowl this year? Manning made it there and who's to say Brady wouldn't have had a crap game.

    Seattle has been a top 3 team in the league the last two years. They were primed, young, and confident. They dominated and deserved it.

    Well...i agree with you here too.

    Both Manning and Brady are over the hill. Brady had a better career. Both will compete next year but the winner will be in the NFC again.

    They will be the favorite next year, but like ive said before, they have to pay Wilson, Thomas, Sherman, Bennett, Browner and Avril over the next 2 seasons. Some of these guys arnt coming back, and well see how dominate they are when that happens.

    (They have A TON of money wrapped up in Harvin, Lynch and Rice as well)

    Over the course if their career who has one more big games?

    Montana is my top guy, but I would take Brady way before the "Choke Artist" formally know as Peyton Manning

    Not to change the debate, but Brady/Montana are interchangeable as #1/#2.

    I would still take Manning over Favre, Brees, Marino.

    John Elway would probably be my #3.

    Im a homer though. Aaron Rodgers will be in this debate 10 years from now. I can promise you that. He is a Quarterback that doesn't require separation to complete passes (Like noodle arm duck throwing Manning does).

    Look, I love Manning and hate Brady ... but I would rather have a young Brady as my QB than a young Peyton...but that's me ...

    Two questions:

    1) Would any current NFL qb have won last night if they played qb for Denver?

    2) Would any qb in NFL history have won last night if they played qb for Denver?

    Dont flame me, but Rodgers would have made more downfield throws. Manning WAS throwing ducks. I dont think he would score 43 points though.
