2012-2013 Manning vs 2020-2021 Brady

this is a question I heard elsewhere. Who do you think was better?

we have the benefit of hindsight with Peyton. He had that crazy 2013 where he set the season record for both TD and passing yards at 37 years old. Brady hasn't finished this season yet, though he is on a very similar pace to Peytons 2013.

Manning was 7 years younger during his run. I would argue that age 44 Brady has a better arm than age 37 Manning.

Of course I take Tom, assuming he finishes this year strong. I belive if you were to swap them out that Manning would not have the arm strength at that point in his career to be able to stretch the field like Tom can now.

George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    I'll take Brady as well, he looks like he could play until he's 50, it's ridiculous how great he is at this age, he outplays guys that are much younger than him.

    Well, if nothing else, Brady didn't get lit up in his Super Bowl appearance like Manning did in his.
