The tear certainly explains why he's been limited. I bet when healthy he can do what he did in the 1st half. I think he returns

All three games aided by Spygate, the biggest cheating scandal the NFL has ever had. So, essentially, Eli > Tom by this metric and it's a toss up between Peyton and Brady although Peyton is 2-0 against Brady in the playoffs since Spygate with a Super Bowl, which Tom does not have. He also beat THE Tom Brady just last year in the AFCCG |

SVP and Russillo had a very rational take on the situation.

The last couple years I wanted Peyton to get a ring so he would retire. Now I want him to play 5 more years!
Go Chiefs!!!!!

This EXCEPT until the Chiefs figure out a way to beat him, I'm not too confident. Deal is the Colts D made it look EASY. Why can't the Chiefs do that?

Him and Brady have both been spoiled also by playing in such crappy divisions their whole careers. Their stories would have been alot different if they had played in tougher divisions that challenged them.

You really, really don't seem to understand what Spygate was, so let me just clarify a bit. Fact #1 -- stealing signals of various types has ALWAYS been in the NFL. I'm not saying all teams do it, but lots of teams/coaches do and did. The traditional method, of course, is either keeping an eye on the other guys signals and trying to decipher them, or getting players from the former team (sometimes JUST before you play them) and having them tell you what those signals mean. This is PERFECTLY LEGAL AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN. Quote:
How do I know? Because Jimmy Johnson knew all about it. He DID it. He learned about it from who? Marty Schottenheimer's Kansas City Chiefs! Quote:
Quote:
Fact #3 -- The real problem for Belichick and the Patriots wasn't that they filmed signals in 2001, or 2003, or 2004, it's that the NFL came out with a relatively clear (to most people but apparently not Belichick) memo in 2006 which made it clear that videotaping signals was not permitted Quote:
But note the timing of it. September, 2006. If the Patriots had stopped then, the NFL would never have cared about any prior taping, by them or any other team that did it. Note also the absurdity of the rule. It's ok to steal signals in some ways, but not others? As the New York Times pointed out: Quote:
And yeah, I know, tl;dr, but you can rant on and on about cheating and asterisks, but honestly, it's absurd and doesn't phase me a bit. Once you properly understand the "scandal" and put everythign in context, it's pretty damn clear that it's really a big hullaballoo over not much at all. Or, as Bill Cowher (who the Patriots beat not once but TWICE on the way to Super Bowls): Quote:

That has been mentioned. Problem is the Patriots have approximately the exact same win percentage both in division and out of division. The AFC East hasn't been great, but it hasn't been god-awful either. Some other divisions have been consistently better over the last 10 years, but some have been worse, and others about the same.

This has been explained to you, repeatedly. It was 5 wins fewer than Brady had the prior year, and was against a god-awful weak schedule. Like the AFC North this year, all team's records were inflated by that fact. The 11-5 record DID NOT qualify them for the playoffs. They lost on a tie-breaker to the 11-5 Dolphins. So they went from soul-crushing undefeated team until the Super Bowl, to didn't make the playoffs. And you somehow cite that as proof Brady isn't awesome. Good God. You really need to stop. You keep regurgitating the same "facts", which don't support your cause.
