He manages the game very well. He executes very well. He's one of the top 5 QBs in the league.
I still think he's a bit overrated, and I still think he benefits greatly from the system he is in.
Is he the best passer in the league? No...I can probably think of five QBs who are better passers (Palmer, Manning, Brees, Bulger, McNabb maybe), but very few who are better QBs.
If Manning wins in two weeks I honestly think he'll become the best QB in the league in a lot of people's minds.
And for all my Tom Brady bashing, I'd take him for my team.
