It's a stretch right now to put Tom Brady down as the "best of all time". It's obvious now in today's NFL that it takes team continuity on both sides of the ball including special teams. You can no longer say that a quarterback is the catalyst for winning games in the playoffs. Look at Peyton Manning... A season of spectacular play and record breaking numbers, but nothing other than MVP honors to show for it. Put Manning, Culpeper or Pennington in the Pats line up and you might even see better results. New Englands defense and ability to cause turnovers and make plays is still the primary reason for their "dynasty".
