I've never seen anything like it before. Tom Brady continues to step up when games matter most. He went 12/12 against a great Steeler defense in the 4th quarter and showed shades of Joe Montana. I know I said Peyton Manning was the better quarterback of the two and that Brady didn't compare to Montana, but people make mistakes and I admit I was wrong and what Brady displayed was simply incredible. And it's not like he has the greatest receivers either. The receivers he has have no ego and they just go out there and get the job done night in and night out acting like its what they do on a regular day basis.(In NE's case that's actually true since they always win but still) Talk about Cinderella stories here's one; An undrafted QB who wins a Super Bowl in his first year starting because Bledsoe gets injured. This guy continues to amaze me. Announcers are saying he could be the greatest of all time(although I wouldn't go that far yet).
I dont think tom brady is good as everyone thinks,i think its his offense that shows how good he is but hes not a bad qb but im saying hes not the team,I think some other players on the patriots are better.

The only difference between the 2 was that the Steelers dominated time of possesion so that they didnt have much opportunites to give up points/yards. The Dolphins defense has struggled due to an inemic offense and always being on the field, but talent wise they are just as good, if not better, then the Pitt defense.My point however was that this entire drive and his 12 for 12 is blown out of proportion because it is Tom Brady. Byron Leftwich led the Jags on 4 game winning drives in the last minute of the game last season. That is Clutch. But you would never see the media giving him credit for it because he is only Byron Leftwich. But when Tom Brady goes 12 for 12 in one game, although he completly sucked the week before, he is re-appointed the best QB in the NFL. Dont you think that is a little blown outta proportion?
Miami defense better than Pittsburgh? Hah.But I agree with a point you had. Brady is OVERRATED.And I'll say it again, Tom Brady is is OVERRATED, he's had a couple of good games but I agree with you, comprehensively. Brady is a great quarterback but not as superior as the media makes him out to be, they put him on the same scale as likes of Culpepper, Manning and McNabb. BECAUSE he "supposedly" led the Pats to 3 Superbowls in 4 years. You can put Ryan Leaf in his position and the media will still be all over him.Thats my two cents.
