Tom Brady may be the greatest winner the game has ever seen ?

In his 12 seasons as an NFL starter, Brady has taken the Pats to the playoffs 11 times. He has never gone in as a wild card. Thats right he has won 11 division titles. In all 12 seasons he posted or shared the best record in the AFC East. In 2002 the Pats & Jets both finished the season 9-7, the Jets were awarded the title on a tie breaker.

It is the only season Brady didn't produce double digit wins or advance to the post season. Some qb's who have won more games than they have lost in their career.

Aikman-23, Staubach-56, Elway-66, Montana-70, Favre-74, Manning-94. Brady has won 105 more games than he has lost in his career. If you count the playoffs he has won 113 more times than he has lost, he has won 77.4% of his career starts. Only Otto Graham has a higher winng % of 80.6 with the browns.

    Peyton Manning is nowhere near the greatest winner the game has ever seen. I mean the man only has 1 ring. And not only is he .500 in the playoffs, but he shares the record for the most playoff losses ever. Tom Brady is 1 of 4 QBs in NFL history with 3 or more rings. He has the highest winning percentage of all time. He has over 100 more wins than losses. He only has a losing record to 2 NFL teams. He has multiple Super Bowl wins, multiple Super Bowl MVPs, multiple regular season MVPs (the only unanimous winner), 50 TDs and 5,000 YDs under his name, the most passes thrown without throwing an INT (with leading the lead in TDs and only having 4 INTs that season, which is unbelievable). He has the most division wins and most playoff wins of all time. He had a regular undefeated season. The man has literally done everything there is to do in the NFL. In fact, the only thing he has left to accomplish is winning that 4th title. They can talk about Peyton Manning all they want, but they must be smacked if they think that he is a greater winner than Tom Brady.

    Modern day i will agree with ya but if ya wanna compare to past decades it is a differnt story there weren't 4 team divisions to win so it was much harder to get in the postseason

    While i agree that QBs don't win games teams do.The QB is the leader of a team and will take more blame for losses then he really needs to.He is also given more credit for wins then he probably deserves

    In the last decade the AFC east has been a pathetic division that the Patriots win by default.

    Buffalo ? ? ?

    Miami ? ? ?

    NY Jets ? ? ?

    All pathetic mismanaged franchises . . .

    The Patriots winning that division is like winning a prettiest pig contest. Sure you won but you're still a pig.

    This is not tennis where players win individual games or titles, in Football wins are a team effort.

    Look, I'm pats fan and Brady will go down as one of the all time greats, but he lost, they are out of it, the talk should be about Manning, the broncos and seahawks. Not about Brady or the pats or any of that other crap.

    I hate this 'winner' crap.

    It's a team sport. Quit giving Brady all the credit.
