Brees vs Manning.
Among the stats that you will want to know for your Super Bowl Party is one very underrated stat for quarterbacks, which is their completion percentage.
No surprise here that both Brees and Manning rank one and two in the league. Brees at 70.6 and Manning at 68.8, both mind blowing numbers.
The next stat I look at is their touchdowns vs interceptions. Brees was 34-11 and Manning was 33-16, extremely impressive for both QB’s.
Comparing the stats you can say Brees had a slightly better year than Manning, but I still give a slight edge to Manning. Nobody in my life time has control over an offense like Peyton. He puts defenses on their heels, and changes the way coaches calls plays.
If you don’t believe me, go ask Bill Belichick about his controversial call to go for it on 4th down deep in their own territory, when the Patriots played the Colts earlier this year.
Guru’s ranking:
- Brees 9.5
- Manning 10
