I'm post-Superbowl drunk right now...a little bit.

I've said before that Tom Brady was a better QB then Eli Manning, however Eli blew Tom out of the frackin water tonight. He out-played and out-threw him, and quite frankly even though I was totally rooting for the Patriots, I'm surprised they scored as many points as they did. Brady wasn't in the game, the defense wasn't in the game....boo.

And the commercials sucked.

You know it's a bad Super Bowl when Madonna is the most exciting performer.

I've been having this argument with my dad.

Tony romo vs Eli manning

I think manning is definitely the better qb but my dad Is sure that romo is better. He's being stupid. Romo has a really good regular season record, but when he's bad, he's extremely bad. When both quarterbacks are having a bad day, romo is much worse. And then when it comes down to crunch time, romo sucks, manning steps up. Romo has a 1-3 playoff record. Manning has a 8-3 playoff record and two superbowls. End of discussion, right? Wrong. My dad just keeps going on about how manning has a better team, which definitely is true this year. But there were years that romo had a really good team too.

Let's took a look at romos playoff record. Of course there's the infamous botched hold on the extra point vs seattle in 2006, that single-handedly lost the game. Then there's 2007 when the cowboys finished with a 13-3 record. The cowboys lost to the giants that year in the playoffs. Manning threw 12/18, 163 yards and 2 touchdowns. Romo went 18/36, 201 yards, one touchdown and one interception. And then in 2008, in what technically was a playoff game against the eagles, whichever team won is the team that got the playoff birth. The cowboys lost 44-6; romo went 21/39, 183 yards, 0 touchdowns and 3 turnovers. In 2009 the cowboys were divisional champs, romo Had a 104.9 passer rating in the first round of the playoffs, the only good playoff performance of his career. But the very next game, the cowboys lose 34-3 to the Vikings and romo has 4 turnovers. And of course the next two years the cowboys wouldn't make the playoffs. Let's not forget to mention romos 7-10 record in December.

When you compare that to the 8-3 playoff record and 2 superbowls wins of Eli manning, I think it's clear who the better quarterback is.

Very happy New England lost, I don't think I could take anymore gushing over Tom Brady. The panel on the Sky Sports broadcast were insufferable on that as well as the pathetic over the top 'enthusiasm' they pretended to have.

Looks like Manning has his choices down to three teams: Broncos, 49ers and the Titans.

I'm hoping for the 49ers as a Manning fan, but the Broncos wouldn't be bad either.

I wish he would just retire myself. We finally get rid of Farve and now its Manningpalooza everywhere. He's old in terms of NFL years and should just consider himself lucky he's not in a wheel chair. I really dont think he could be that beneficial to any team right off the bat. The whole offensive scheme that he came from was centered around him calling the plays. I think its a process that takes time to develop within a organization to mesh well. Im not to sure how any offensive coordinator's going to handle Peyton coming in and dictating whats going to take place on the field. If it does happen to work out for a team, then kudos to them but I just dont see it happening.

Offensive coordinator to peyton manning,

"i will do whatever you say, master"

Seriously, you used Brett Favre as an example. Look at how easily he came in and improved the vikings when the pieces were their around him. Peyton Manning is the smartest QB ever, he made the colts competitive even though the rest of that team was awful. Even though the coaching staff was a joke.

I hope he picks the 49ers.

If he is 90% of what he has been, they would probably be the super bowl favorites.
