It takes two people to complete a pass.
Brady has GREAT receivers to throw to. Not only does he have great receivers now, he has had great receivers in the past.
When his great receivers are not playing, the Patriots finish the season at 2-4. A good QB with only one great receiver to throw to sounds a lot like the New York Giants (6-10). And I would never put Eli Manning in a list of the top 5 QBs of all time.
Using your logic Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw would be average QBs. Both are 4 time super bowl champions, along with Brady.
Neither of them had the extended success as Brady.
The only QB who comes close is Peyton Manning. Who, btw, has played two full seasons longer in the NFL.
The thing about great players is they make everyone around them better. You see that trait in all the above mentioned.
To illustrate, what would Cincinati look like with Brady or Manning as QB? If we use your logic, Andy Dalton should be a future hall of famer.
Brady has GREAT receivers to throw to?
Through his career he has mostly thrown to cast-offs and been among the best with them. On occasion he has had an actually good receiver and he blows the doors off the league when he has two. Like him or not, your comment isn’t merely wrong, but other-dimension wrong.
