Alex Hoegler commented on Greatest Pats of the Belichick Era:
Amazing that a PAts fan made this list considering that all they do is credit Brady for 3 rings and no one else!

Alex has yet to fill out a bio.
No problem bud.
I'm glad to see that you hate the Pats. If you aren't hated, you sure as hell aren't doing it right. Thank you so much. And please enjoy watching Manning. There is a reason why people love Manning, Steve Nash etc and hate Tom Brady, Kobe Bryant, Lebron James etc.
Ah Alex, I was waiting for the day you saw fit to comment on my work. I got a notification that you made a comment but for some reason I can't actually see it on the article...Shame.
I imagine as a Peyton fanboy you're ecstatic about Welker since he's an underneath guy and Manning can't throw more than 30 yards in the air anymore, and I don't blame you, but just remember Brady made Welker what he is today.
I was very sad to see Welker leave the Pats, but he's replaceable. I've been saying it (and writing it) all offseason, that Amendola could come in and perform just as well if not better. That being said, he's perfect for your boy Manning and I will miss him. He's a cult hero in New England and his leaving hurts on an emotional level even if it doesn't on the field
You didn't hurt my feelings, I hate the debate of Brady or Manning, who is better? They are both great quarterbacks, both hall of fame bound, both top 5 ever in my opinion. But the fact that you think Manning is so much better then Brady is ridiculous. I think Brady is better, I do, but I don't think Manning is some average quarterback, hell no, I think he is great, but in my opinion, Brady does more, wins more, and has more rings. I just don't think you give Brady credit when he deserves it. And the whole Brady has more weapons is not very valid either, I already commented on that though in the article. But you have an opinion, I have an opinion. We don't have to agree (hence me calling you an ass) but they still are opinions. I don't expect you to change yours, and I don't think you expect me to change mine.
You're an ass
Worst article ever written nice job. What really did it for me was your rebuttals. They consistently contradicted what you said in other comments and even your article. You article begins by saying the Rings argument is invalid. Then in the comments your reasoning for why Montana is better is that Brady and Manning need 2 more rings...Wait, I thought that argument was invalid. Also if Peyton has 2 more, then he only has 3 like Brady already does. So 1=3 and 3=5 Manning to Brady?
Also stop saying "you all" and "all of Pats nation" when it's simply not true. You know the old saying..You know what happens when you ASS-U-ME?
You criticize Pats fans for being "Homers" as well and Matt Milliner for being biased, but you list Manning as your favorite Athlete and ahead of Unitas and Montana. So you too are a "homer" and biased and based on your logic of disproving both us fans and other writers, then your argument is rendered useless and invalid.
It's also pretty sad when a writer stoops so low as to calling people names and saying they are "butt hurt". You should try to act a little more professional if you intend to have any sort of future in writing. Your work will always be criticized, especially controversial material like this and you need to accept the fact people are going to bash you and your work but you need to act professional about it, and in some cases listen to what people say and see how things might be flawed and could be improved.
All that statistic proves is that the Patriots have good backup plans. Just like with with their O-Line. Manning is not better than Brady, face it.
Alex, I disagree with your Manning vs. Brady piece, but don't let the haters get you down. Keep working towards improvement
If you want some clear points here:
-Brady has been to 7 AFC championship games and 5 SB's while Peyton has only won 9 playoff games.
-Brady has the most ever playoff wins while Peyton ties for second most losses
-Brady beat Peyton's TD pass record
-Brady threw 359 passes without an into, this year
-Brady has a better TD-Into ratio
-Manning's average into (14) is higher than Brady has ever had
Firstly, why don't you try and not post the same comment 5 times. Second *some* experts will side with you, *most* will side with me. Matt Miller had Brady as the top QB in 2012 and 2nd best in 2011, Manning was 3rd this year and 12th last year.
