Relying purely on stats and numbers, and not counting the intangibles of what makes a great player great, is for nerds who never played the game

What played a bigger part in last night's game? Peyton's "intangibles", or the other "intangibles" that don't show up on the stat line (OL protection, receivers not breaking free)? What about the biggest intangible...the opposing team? Peyton looked horrible against Seattle...but he looked better than Eli.

Here is the breakdown for you...

Peyton 34/49 280yds 1td 2 int....QBR 24.4

Eli 18/31 156yds 0td 5 int....QBR 2.1

There...that makes one "intangible" a bit more "tangible" for you.

Yall all trying to prove through stats that Peyton is better than Eli.

Way to miss the point entirely. Also, I never said or implied that Eli was better. I just said he seems to have a certain emotional drive that Peyton lacks.

If you wanna put up huge stats and pretty numbers and look good all season, give me Peyton over any quarterback ever.

If you want to win one game - the Super Bowl, and it comes down to the "will to win" as much as it does the X's and O's, then give me Brady, Montana, Favre, Eli, Young, Bradshaw, Aikman, Elway... all long before Peyton.
