Who would you rather have lead the way?

Which QB would you rather have leading your team on a 4th quarter comeback drive?

My pick has to go with Manning.....Favre is a close second but Manning just has that swagger under pressure and the poise needed from a veteran QB.

I agree with with Birds20 , the rapist , BEN has 21 4th Q comebacks in his short but legendary career, and of course lets not forget those two superbowl seasons with the last one being the most thrilling drive in NFL History.

Plenty of Question, Bo Bo Bradey looks like crap this year and the Patsy's should be 0-2


Throwing out games that were tied or in which the defense or special teams scored the decisive touchdown, Manning has led 28 comebacks, Brady 21 and Roethlisberger 16, according to a study by pro-football-reference.com. Manning has played three more seasons than Brady, including Brady’s one game season of a year ago, and six more than Roethlisberger,

Before too long, fans may say that John Elway had a Ben Roethlisberger-esque ability to put together fourth-quarter comebacks

It says 16 above but Big Ben now has 18 game-winning drives in the fourth quarter or overtime since he joined the league in 2004. He now has the the most for any quarterback over that span

Out of this group it would be Peyton. But you left a better QB off the list. Also Farve should not be on this list. He hasn't been a good QB for the last 3 years.

now admittedly Brady hasn't looked sharp this year, although his week 1 numbers were just fine (and he lead a last minute comeback there for the win). While he may not yet be 100% physically, he is damn close. The Pats problem is not Brady. It's a weaker than expected offensive line, that is not allowing Brady the time he needs to put the ball where he wants to. He is hurrying because the pocket is collapsing around him. The Jets did a great job pressuring him, although notably they did not record one sack of Brady. Plus, Edelman dropped a few balls last week that Welker simply does not drop.

No doubt about it that after week 2, Brees is the # 1 QB. But re-visit that 4-6 weeks from now.

Brady has had the best O-line in football for years, he never gets sacked , he has all day back there, I would love to see Bradey behind the Steeler O-line, I would really love to see Ben behind Bradeys line ,,Brady would nt make it through 1 game ,Give me Ben ANY DAY ,brady is brail and we are seeing what happens when even the littlest pressure gets around that knee, bo bo bradey.

S. Holmes (mvp) dropped 4 balls, including one for a touchdown against Chi
