Given the same defense, I'd take Payton Manning over Brady any day of the week. He won almost the same percentage of games with a much worse defense over his career. 50% of Bradys games the defense allowed less than 18 points. Look up QB's that have won multiple Super Bowls and what kind of defense they had and get back to me. Starr, Montana, Aikman, Bradshaw, Elway. The exception is Eli Manning.
But, I don't know what I'm talking about. Keep that in mind. I never said a good QB isn't needed, but Superstar status given to QB's is based on win percentages, and it's a team game. I'm pretty sure Payton Manning would have more rings if he had better defenses over his career. I'll leave with this little stat. Win % of QB with games where the defense gave up less than 18 points.
Less than 18 ppg Win %
W L
Stafford 47 12 80%
Murray 11 1 92%
Trubisky 21 5 81%
Mayfield 21 5 81%
Allen 38 4 90%
Prescott 39 5 89%
Rodgers 78 7 92%
Cousins 36 4 90%
Brady 156 8 95%
Remember, it's the QB that wins.
