    He definitely could. Gisele isn't even the hottest women he's had a child with.

    I will never forget that series of plays. My hometown team (Indy) against the team I cheered for growing up before Indy had a team. I wanted the Steelers to win (once you like the Steelers, you always like them). My heart dropped out of my chest when Bettis fumbled and the guy started running the other way and I still don't know how he let Big Ben make the tackle. Not the most famous but maybe the luckiest play in Steelers history because they definitely would not have won the game (and then the Super Bowl).

    Then the most accurate FG kicker in NFL history (at the time) blows up his career with one major choke job for the ages.

    I was in tiny little pieces after that kick. Another reason I pulled hard for the Steelers was an earlier INT by Polamalu was nullified incorrectly even after the replay. A Colts win would have been tainted (for me).

    Anything that happened before about 1980 doesn't really matter at Clutchfans. How about Sammy Bough, talk about someone who changed the game forever!

    In 1943, Baugh led the league in passing, he led the league in punting, and on defense he led the league in interceptions with 11 picks.

    No. Brady isn't even the best now. NE is one great team.

    No salary cap until '94, basically the reason Moon was traded for a 4th rounder.

    Segregated single-wing pitchball doesn't count.

    Thats easy to say when Montana had the greatest WR of all time. The other WR John Taylor wasnt so bad either. His TE was great too and so was his RB.

    John Elway is the greatest of all time.

    How the Pats rely more on the pass than the Colts?
    Manning always had better RB than Brady, Peyton got Eldering James, and now Joseph Addai.

    well that RB comparison, was a point against me hehe :eek:

    Was I was try to say is that when the Colts need to run out the clock, they still pass, they doesnt run, and thats because they have more confidence in Peyton making plays than the RB.

    Look when Colts played against NE this year, they already got a FG to tie the game, but they kept passing and got Manning got intercepted, if they run it, then they would get a more easy FG and tie the game, to go to OT.

    If Super Bowls are your major criteria, you have to include Aikman and Bradshaw in your top 4, and that's just silly talk. Brady is a great quarterback, no doubt. He does more great things with skinny arms than any quarterback in history. But he's no John Elway.
