I think the Manning vs. Brady debate is one of the best arguments in football because there is evidence to support both sides, and I actually lean more towards Peyton myself. However, it's kind of funny that the first several paragraphs of your post make the argument that Brady has benefited from a superior team, and his 12-1 playoff record says more about the team than it does about Brady the quarterback. You then go on to say that if
Manning defeats Brady this weekend, all discussion on the topic should end, like it's a one on one battle.
How is it possible for Manning to beat Brady when Brady is only a small part of the entire New England Patriots? If Manning throws for 400 yards and 5 TD's, and Brady throws for 96 yards and 3 picks, but the Patriots somehow find a way to win, does that mean Peyton won the battle?
