  1. I still think you can't even come close to comparing qbs today with those of the old days. The qbs today are so not in control of the game like they used to be. Puppets on a string, controlled by the coaches and the voice in their headsets. IMO, Brady is the classic example, he's never called the game on his own... Always looking at the wrist band, cheat sheet and decoding what is ordered to him in his helmet's headset.

     

    This goes for all modern qbs the last 15 years in the wireless tech era. Maybe only Peyton was a link to the old "seat of the pants" quarterbacking of the old days... And that's a stretch.

     

    It is like a comparing pilots of different eras. One's that flew by seat of pants or the one's that can get the big bird up into the sky & back down again on an electronic beam.

     

    The game is so different, it simply isn't fair to compare to past players who had to use more natural ability. Again, this goes for all modern qbs. Brady, with his cocaches, etc... Has of course mastered the art of the system & cheat sheet better than all others. That I will give him credit for.

    Do you watch any Pats games? Probably not. Brady does more " check with me" plays than probably all qbs combined.
  2. I actually canceled my DTV service last week and have been getting endless calls from a number in San Antonio. I assume it's DTV.

    if you like DTV you should take that call. You could end up with new customer rate and Sunday ticket for free. I cancel every May and usually within 48 hours I get a call from retention. I end up with free ticket and new customer rate as well as free dvr.
