Inspired by the other thread. As good as Brady has been this season, and he has been tremendous, I posit the following question to TalkSox. Would the Pats be 17-0 with Peyton Manning at QB?

My heart tells me yes, but the more I think about it the more I am not so sure. I'm not sure if Manning would have the ability to fit in with this particular Pats team as well as Brady does. Brady, for all the shit I give him, has thrown the deep ball better than any QB in this league this season. Brady has the ability to finish opponents off (last season's Colts game notwithstanding), where Manning has the tendency to come up short in the big games.

What say you, Talksox?
