Is Tom Brady the best QB ever?

How can you say best ever? Some were fortunate to be surrounded by a great team/teams (Montana, Bradshaw) others due to the system, different eras, etc. I would equate them all the same.

I agree. I don't think there's a consensus "best ever" and there shouldn't be. It's too tough to compare players across different eras.

Joey T=Best ever

Id say Brady is a good QB but its hard for me to say he is a great QB. I have watched the Pats for years because I hate them and in my honest opinion it is a true team. I think Brady can make good throws and lead the team but I dont think he is a Montana, Elway, or a Marino. I really believe the Patriots teams are just a well oiled machine that is build by a great system that lets players play to there strengths. I think Brady is a really good QB but watching him play he isnt in the great class imo. Before this season his numbers werent really eye popping. Just my opinion. HTTR.

Keep telling yourself Brady is a system quarterback. Don't be blinded by numbers.

Explain?

I don't really see where objective evidence tries to prove that Brady is a system QB. I totally disagree with the gremlin on this one, but by the tone of the response, it's almost like you are just assuming the evidence points to that.

It doesn't.

Ha! I was making two seperate points, but I see now that it looks like I was addressing the system quarterback statement with an assault on the stats argument.
