Would the Broncos have won yesterday if Peyton Manning threw for 239 yards, 2 interceptions and 0 TD?

Like Brady did against Baltimore last year?

Extra Question: Agree or disagree - Stevan Ridley (5.5 avg) and Shane Vereen (5.9) was completely irrelevant in today's game and the only reason the Patriots won was because of Brady's awesomeness and greatness

Update:

Maybe it's something along the lines of football being a TEAM game.

Update 2:

I don't care about your numerous Tom Brady posters

    No. The Broncos would have won however if when the needed one more first down to run the clock out, they did not call three consecutive running plays. Third and 7, You have Peyton Manning, Decker, Stokley, Thomas, Dressen, and Tamme... and you run the ball?

    The conservative calls cost Denver the game. You call plays that give your team a chance to win... not to hope that you won't lose. John Fox cost the team the game, not the Manning pic in overtime.

    Tom Brady made the plays that mattered most to win. The question should be would Peyton Manning pull off a QB sneak to get a winning touchdown like Brady did that would be a big NO.

    Also that was a whole different team last year and if it was for the Bronco's kick returner the game would of been 38-21 not much of a game. Holiday was the Bronco's MVP. This game Brady had 345 yards passing for 3 touchdowns and 0 INT's don't ignore it Brady is the best of all time.

    Broncos would have won if Manning would have thrown one less interception, or not fumbled, or the Denver defense would have protected against a long pass in the last minute of the game, or if the Ravens receivers wouldn't have outplayed the Bronco defensive backs, or possibly if the Broncos would have tried harder for a 1st down.

    Any of the above likely would have changed the game.

    But the Patriots won the AFC Championship Game. It doesn't matter how Brady played. He won.

    EQ: Ridley and Vereen (especially Vereen) were amazing today. Brady was great as well.

    Such an angry Jets fan.

    Imagine if Brady was a Jet? You'd have his poster on your room door, your avatar would be Brady... you would just go insane with platonic love for the man.

    I never said I had a poster, man. I said you'd have one on your door, read up! And your avatar would be Brady raising the Lombardi.

    It's just funny to think in a parallel universe, Brady won 3 SB for the Jets and you're cheering him on. As a Jets fan, you can take comfort in that (if you actually want to believe in that parallel universe garbage).

    this is why i tend to side with patriot fans because questions like these. the extra question is irrelevant since DK is the only one that credits Brady, the majority of patriot fans credit the team. i have a question for peyton manning fans, why is it that you believe he would win 5 rings with brady's super bowl winning defense if any team can win any given sunday.
