Is Tom Brady the greatest football player ever?

[Starkiller]

Brady is a good QB, but he, like Montana and Young before him, has the benefit of playing in a system that is ideal for him. He is a big beneficiary of the NFL's slant towards offense today. I wouldn't put him in the top-50 all-time, let alone top-10 as far as overall players.

Please name 50 better NFL players in history than Tom Brady.

if their is an All Time NFL Draft and i have the first overall pick, and Montana, Elway, Jim Brown, Reggie White, Dion, Jerry Rice, Butkus, Barry Sanders, Manning, Marino, Ray Lewis, Lawrence Taylor, Payton, OJ, are all on the board

it would only take me one second to decide, ..... I'M TAKING TOM BRADY!!!

If there is an all time draft I think long and hard about rolling with Aaron Rodgers or Peyton Manning.

Johnny unitas has to be on any all time great QB list.

Lol, this place has more tom brady threads than the Patriots board.

When it's all said and done he'll go down as one of the greatest QB's of all time.

i was thinking more like ranking say top 10 player of all time or top 20. cuz i know he'l be one ofthe greatest qb's aof all time if he isn't already, i just dont know where he'll rank in terms of best player not just qbs.

I can't think of a game or time I've ever watched Tom Brady and told myself 'this guy is the best I've ever seen."

Sorry.

Do you watch a lot of football?

The Manning-Brady comparisons in this thread, or at least this board, are disappointing. About 20% of NFL QBing is measured in Yds, TD's, INT's and completion%.

Yup, that's why I feel the way I do.

Who then do you consider the best and why do you think they are better than Brady?
