Reddit mentions of Brady vs Manning: The Untold Story of the Rivalry That Transformed the NFL

I know there is already a book, but that 30 for 30 would be fantastic. I bet they want to wait for Brady to retire because at that point their legacies won't change anymore and they can decide a champion.

also no one said that Manning and Belichick would be bad or be some drama filled partnership, I said it would work less well than the current combination. And even ignoring football, irl two alpha males work less well together.

Just a friendly reminder for those that may not be aware. Peyton and Tom are friends. They have dinner together, they keep in touch. They are both very competitive. Anyone who hasn't yet should read the Brady Vs. Manning book by Gary Myers. It's a quick read and gives some great insight. Peyton's skits are hilarious, and he definitely feeds into the media's perceptions about the two.

There's pretty good book on it too if you want to check it out. Also, "1 vs 199" would be an awesome title. If they ever made that, "Duel of Fates" has to be the theme song.

This is true. Brady was making a lot of noise in camp and preseason that year, but the Patriots had just handed Bledsoe a big 10 year contract. Belichick liked Brady a lot, but knew that starting him over Bledsoe would lead to mutiny from fans and ownership.

When the injury to Bledsoe happened, it ended up being the perfect circumstances to see if Brady could compete as a starter. And the rest is history. I highly recommend the Brady vs Manning book to any NFL fan; it dives into more detail about how Brady's career developed as opposed to Manning's.
