WTF does that have to do with anything? Calling MVP's fanfare, which is what they are, seems pretty legit to me.
I'm fine with summing up Brady and Rodgers as 1a and 1b, but calling Rodgers the best QB in the league just because he has an impressive skill set doesn't make sense to me while Tom just won a Superbowl that came off 4 consecutive AFC Championship games, and the "it's a team game" only flies so far considering how flawed the Pats have been until this year. Without Tom, the Patriots don't make it past Baltimore this year. Again, Vick had a great skill set too, and did shit Tom could never do. That never made him a better quarterback. Tom has tools too, like reading a defense after the snap, that aren't as easy to see.
It's a team game, but we still see the difference between a Brady and a Manning in the Superbowl against Seattle
I can't argue about this all day because I dig Rodgers too much to crap on him in Brady's defense
