My Giants beating N.E. with a 57 yard field goal with 2 seconds remaining, edging them by 1 pt, 27-26. Ball hit the crossbar but somehow still managed to bounce in for the score as time expires. Watch it happen.

N.E. over G.B.
It won't even be close.
N.E. 37
G.B. 14
N.E over GB
pictures of you!! pictures of me!!
A NE/GB game will be the most watched game in NFL history....easily.
If Tom Brady wins another SB then I would think it solidifies him as the greatest QB in NFL history (and he's still in his prime).
4 SBs
Most TD record in a single season
Most points scored by a team in a single season
1st undefeated team in over 30 years and 2nd all-time.
Read the bold.
If he doesn't play, it don't count. That's why I said he and not the Patriots but I get your drift.
He could win this one and then muck up his stats later.
He has a ton under his belt already though. It'd be pretty hard to muck up 4 SBs, single season records, and undefeated.
I'll put it this way. If he wins the SB and then dies the next day, he is solidified. He'd be the third joining the ranks of Montana and Bradshaw but would 1up both with being undefeated and the single season records.
4 SBs mean the most but skill records along with 4 SBs knocks it out of the park....er.....is a touchdown.
I wonder what his average passer rating is this year? How many INTs as well?
edit: found it
QB rating - 117.2
TDs - a whopping 50
INTs - 8

I'd say Brady is in the HOF already - easily, too.
Best of all-time?
What if Peyton one-ups him next year?
Nothing at all against Brady, or Manning, for that matter, the fact is, though, that their making a mockery of certain passing records merely bodes ill for the record book.
Manning did it last year, Brady does it this year...maybe next year Romo or somebody will go further.
Never mind this once-in-a-lifetime deal - we've had two quarterbacks shatter all of the season records in consecutive years.
Better wait and see, huh?

It also doesn't hurt any of the modern day QBs that the NFL continues to tweak the rules so the passing game is emphasized and the QB more protected.
"I am the one who knocks."- Heisenberg
They are both great skilled QBs. It's not a mockery. Marino had the record before, Manning 1uped him, then Brady 1uped Manning.
Maybe people 'ill yell "Steroids!"
Shaun Alexander broke Priest Holmes record and then the next year LT broke Alexander's record.
How's that a mockery and bad for the record book?
If Peyton breaks Brady's record next year, he still doesn't have the SBs.
It's still Brady as greatest all-time.
Then last year Manning was the greatest of all-time, eh?
I mean, if all it takes is a superior statistical performance to get you talking this way...
Brady just gave us the greatest statistical season a quarterback has ever had, but Clocker is right - let him retire before you hand him the mantle - it's only proper.
Yes, and while Manning has carte blanche to change plays, he is merely the closest approach to fellows like Unitas and Starr, who (believe it or not) actually called their own plays, all the time.
