Brady v. Manning

Only one more day until the two greatest quarterbacks of their generation square off in Foxboro in an important battle for supremacy in the AFC. If Brady comes out on top, the Patriots will move to 8-2 and can do no worse than be tied with the Jets (who host the struggling Texans) for the top spot in the conference as well as first place in the AFC East. If Manning is victorious, the Colts will be 7-3 and maintain their lead over Tennessee in the AFC South. I will be in attendance for my fourth Brady-Manning Bowl. I have been lucky enough to watch the Patriots dismantle Manning and the Colts in the 2003 and 2004 playoffs and also saw Manning torch the Patriots defense in the 2006 regular season. Tomorrow should be an excellent game but in the end, the Patriots should win this game. They are playing better right now, the Colts are also dealing with more injury problems than the Patriots, and it will be played in the outdoor New England climate at Gillette Stadium. And, in my opinion, the Patriots have the better quarterback. I would take Brady every day of the week over Manning - especially on Sunday.
