I am not a Patriots fan, but you have to give Brady the nod for making the passes. The receiver has to catch it of course, but the pass has to be to the receiver to catch. Either down the field, underneath, across, screen, etc... the passes have to be accurate. A great receiver will catch those passes that the average receiver cannot. And Patriots have never had that "above" average receiver on their team, meaning it does rely on Brady's accuracy. Now saying he's the greatest of all time, that is just impossible to justify. Like measuring any current player to players of the past. It takes a team to win the game, he's just a big part of making points for the offense, when the defense cannot stop the other team.
Would Brady of looked that good if Ryan put up 57 points. Brady's stats would of been the same, his passes just as good, but the outcome would of been overshadowed because of the Loss. I enjoy talking about positions and players, but it's still comes down to all the players working together for a common cause.
