Brett Favre Can’t Decide If Peyton Manning Is Better Than Tom Brady

Brett Favre is having a hard time in the Peyton Manning vs. Tom Brady debate.

The Green Bay Packers legend and future Hall of Famer said earlier this year that Manning is a better quarterback than Brady.

Now, much like his decisions to retire so many times, Favre has changed his mind. In an video post on sqor.com, Brett Favre flip-flopped and now claims that Brady is the best in the game.

“Today’s game, he is the best quarterback out there. Not taking anything away from anybody else. He’s proven he can get it done. Bottom line, he can get it done.”

Favre may have a point, and it’s certainly difficult to argue against Tom Brady right now. Written off by many after the Patriots’ slow start and a blowout loss at the hands of the Kansas City Chiefs, Brady has gone on a tear and led his team to five straight wins.

In doing so, Brady earned himself AFC Offensive Player of the Month honors, his first time winning the award since December/January 2011.

As NFL.com pointed out, Brady was nearly perfect for the month.

“Brady led New England to a 4-0 record in the month of October and completed 100 of 144 passes for 1,268 yards with 14 touchdowns, 0 interceptions and a quarterback rating of 129.1. Brady’s 14 touchdowns are tied for first with Peyton Manning during October and Brady is the only starting quarterback that has not thrown an interception during the month. The Patriots entered the month of October with the 29th ranked offense in the NFL and under Brady’s guidance, the team climbed to No. 10. Brady’s play in the month of October also helped the 24th ranked scoring offense ascend to the third ranked scoring offense entering November.”

At the rate he is going, the 37-year-old Brady is on pace to finish the year with 4,118 passing yards and 36 touchdowns. No wonder Brett Favre changed his mind about the best quarterback in the game.
