Now it's a moving target.  You said first-ballot hall of famer.  Everyone believes he is a first-ballot hall of famer.

That's a fair point that I didn't clearly state.

Hes the most accurate passer I have ever seen.

His genius goes beyond his great accuracy. He, like Brady, can almost instantaneously process what he sees and go through advanced progressions to get the ball to the receiver. You either have that ability or you don't.

Well y'know that's why he's so accurate. You cannot be consistently accurate in real time without the ability to process and anticipate. You also need to have very sound fundamental mechanics. 

Oh I have seen him throw balls right through a moving tire when in shorts. He can do that too.

I think that most people consider him worthy of the HOF. But I do believe that there are many people who don't consider him in the discussion with the best of the best such as Brady, Manning and Montana. I have him sitting at the same special small table designated for the all time best. .  

He will have more passing yards than any player ever by about week 6 next year. He will be 2nd all-time in passing TDs by about week 11. He will be first by 2019 (he and Brady are currently tied). I would love to talk to the person that isn’t sure he’s a 1st ballot HOfer. I’ve never met anyone that thought that.

As I responded to Starrymessenger I should have been clearer to what I meant. The issue isn't so much as being a first ballot HOF but being considered at the top or near top of the rankings and in the same discussion of the best ever with a qb such as Brady. If anyone argued that Brees was better than Brady I would not be dismissive of that view, although I would disagree with it. But for my money he is in that same lofty GOAT discussion.

That’s fair. I’d have him in the top 5 I think. He is Marino that has a Super Bowl.

Kurt Warner is in the HOF on the strength of his SB wins. If I recall correctly he won the SB with two teams, St. Louis and Arizona. There were a few years where he was the best at making the quick reads and precisely throwing the ball. He credited that ability from his days in the Arena League where the qb was forced to make quck decisions. For a shorter stint than Bress he was one of the best qbs in the game.

He only won 1 Super Bowl.

QB comparative value is something that all of us have thought about. I agree that Brees and a few others have to be considered in the same class as TB. It's not that in saying that I do not concede him to be the GOAT I think less of Brady as a player. It's just that I recognize the importance of system and coaching in contributing to his success. Pats are the best coached and disciplined team in the game and have been for some time. That's Belly and his coordinators. If I was building a team from scratch and got to pick my QB from among the greats Tom would certainly not be my pick.

Was in two SB and lost both, alas.  One to NE (Brady's first) and one to the Steelers.

I sit corrected.  In Three superbowls, won one, lost two.  And I should know that,  too.

Kurt Warner was in 3 and won one.

 

Won Super Bowl XXXIV 23-16 over the Tennessee Titans

Lost Super Bowl XXXVI 20-17 to the New England Patriots* on Adam Vinitari's Field Goal as time expired

Lost Super Bowl XLIII 27-23 to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Santonio Holme's crazy last minute catch as well as James Harrison's goal line interception and epic run back just before halftime

Thanks for that info. That Harrison interception and stunning run back before halftime was an epic play.

Not a !@#$ing clue what he was thinking. Good for the Vikes and Zimmer though. Rooting for them.

Yeah, pretty sure the moral of this game is tackle with your head up...or maybe just tackle period.

Possibly would have won 2 if he hadn't thrown a pick six before the half.

 

Or if Santonio Holmes had not made a diving out of bounds dragging 2 toes circus catch with :35 to play because you know, good QBs don't need great WRs.

I will have you know, mister, that your behavior is in DIRECT violation of the TERMS OF SERVICE here, on this here website!!!  You HAD better take caution.

 

Sorry I hurt your delicate feelings.  Go squirt a few tears while you are living on your knees.   OK gal?

Yeah maybe now. He would have been run out of town here if he played anything like his previous gigs. 

Going into this season Keenum had played in fewer games with fewer completions for worse teams than Taylor. Most Bills fans supported Taylor going into this year. 

 

If your point is that we wouldn't have been happy with Keenum as our starter going into this year I think that's true. But at this point it appears Keenum has developed into a decent QB.

The things you're saying are really bad things, man.  I don't know how you can be so bigoted on a day like MLK Day.  What is wrong with you?

Well ... it's paying the bills and I don't have to actually WORK (especially on a national holiday - you must be in fast food), but it could be better.  Funny how you're a right winger and work an hourly pissant job.  Irony.  Love it.

That's what I thought.  Only the unemployed could post as much as you.

Well, I mean, it has its perks, but I'd rather be working.  But I did have today off and you didn't, so I guess I win.  I'm just waiting for the right opportunity to come along.

 

I'm not sure if you're asking out of true concern, or you're being mean.  But I'll assume it's because you're being sincere.  And I appreciate that.

My apologies.  I didn't really think you were unemployed.  Sorry that you are.  That sucks.

So what then in your viewpoint would have changed for him to spur his development?

I'm sorry about yours, too.

 

Gotta love those old commercials for Eyewitness News. Like the one where Irv asks “Does anyone know how to get spaghetti sauce out of a tie?” and everyone replies “Ask Irv!” 

 

I think my favorite was when he asks “Does anyone know how one removes their head from their own ass?” and everyone stares blankly at him and blinks a few times before shaking their heads.

It doesn't mean he would have here.  Completely different system.

Young, inexperienced safety mis-timed the play, got there way too early, and went low to avoid the penalty (clock stops/free play).  Probably figured his teammate would get there, but he took out his teammate in the process.

 

Rewatch it again from both angles, side view shows how early he was.  Makes more sense why he whiffed so hard, he was trying to get out of the way to avoid the early hit.
