What does that say about Tom Brady given that he's lost to a 'choke artist' twice in the playoffs?
I guess Tommy must be a choker as well, at least by your logic.
By mine they're the two greatest quarterbacks of all time (Otto Graham is 3rd, Dan Marino is 4th) and if the Colts had better defenses and better coaching (like the patriots have had with Brady) Manning would have 3+ rings.
Football is the ultimate team sport, to evaluate a single player by whether is team wins the big game is stupid.
Its really sad how naive people still think this. He took a team trailing 17-7 and got it tied at 24 before his defense chocked and didn't even give him the opportunity at a game winning drive. That's not choking.
So Rodgers had a bad game but then had a fantastic 4th quarter, Tom Brady barely threw the ball and Andrew Luck actually played well in the 1st quarter.
At least Peyton Manning threw a pick and Brees lost despite a 390-yard game, so it wasn't a totally weird week for 'elite' QBs.
I made a similar joke earlier today Scuba: Me: "For just the second time this season, the Lions will not be loosing a game this weekend." Friend: "That's a bold prediction, even given the lack of an opponent"

I just noticed that the Lions aren't even playing today. I still fully expect Stafford to throw at least 3 picks.
He was great last two years, but has been really really bad this year. I expect he'll find himself and be pro-bowl calibre soon. How soon is the question.
