    I agree completely with Vilma. If down 1-3, I would take Tom Brady. If down 4 or more, I would take Elway.But Brady does do quite a lot with such little talent and provides wins with Vinateiri backing him. He never had a primetime WR or a primetime RB behind him. You could make a case for Corey Dillon but John Elway had Terrell Davis in the backfield.

Who was their RB's in those SB's? Yeah no one knows. Who were the WR's? Again no one knows.Elway > BradyBrady got thrown onto an already good team. Elway stuck with Denver even when they went through slumps during his career.</div>Who were Brady's wide recievers? And who was Brady's running back when he went to the SB against the Rams. You cant make that point.

TD and Rod Smith, Shannon Sharpe, with some other good players around. I agree with you, Brady had crap compared to Elway.

In SB 36 Brady had Troy Brown and David Patten. They were both really good. Elway had Smith and Ed Macaffery. So they were about even in offensve. But that's not the point I'm trying to make.Brady was put on a team that already had the talent to make the SB. Elway battled through many losing seasons among other things.That's why Elway is better.

    Yes, but they weren't even talent. TD, McAffery and Smith > Dillon, Brown and Patten.

    Brady, he's already got 3 rings. Elway didn't get his 2 until the end
