    Brady / Manning Controversy ends here.

    OK, I decided to waste my time to bring some sanity to the Brady vs. Manning debate. The statistics below prove what most logical football fans already know: 1) QBs are better during the regular season against lesser competition than they are in the playoffs vs. better competition; 2) QBs generally play better at home than on the road.

    Let's start with Peyton Manning:

    REGULAR SEASON
    Home QB Rating: 100.1
    Road QB Rating: 93.4

    PLAYOFFS
    Home QB Rating: 98.5
    Road QB Rating: 68.2

    And, now, Tom Brady's stats:

    REGULAR SEASON
    Home QB Rating: 96.7
    Road QB Rating: 95.2

    PLAYOFFS
    Home QB Rating: 89.4
    Road QB Rating: 78.5

    Comparing Brady and Manning I think it's fair to say that, overall, Manning is slightly better, BUT Brady is more consistent.

    Is that fair?

    No, look at the playoff w/l record, head to head record and # of Super Bowl wins. Brady crushes in all three. If Manning doesn't get another Super Bowl it's not even close, Brady better/more clutch.
