::I know he is a Republican! It's one of the reasons I don't understand why he's on this list. But then if we were going by playoff success - Tom Brady has won 3 Super Bowls and rarely do his teams not compete - in fact the Patriots won the AFC East this year against all odds given their terrible receiving crew and the season ending injury to their star tight end. But he's on this list too. What I'm suggesting is that there's not really consistency in our deciding who is underrated or overrated - the only thing Brady and Manning have in common is they both were higher on their team's depth chart than Tim Tebow. So are we just looking for reasons to call them underrated? If playoff success is your standard - Brady shouldn't be on this list.

::Also is Manning overrated? Because every article I read on him rags on him for not being the same player in the cold and his lack of playoff success. In fact he recently got angry at a press conference when confronted with the disparity in his numbers. The media reports on this.--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 17:44, 22 December 2013 (EST)

::(Fairly, QBR doesn't account for running stats - but the other numbers speak for themselves.) Also is Manning overrated? Because every article I read on him rags on him for not being the same player in the cold and his lack of playoff success. In fact he recently got angry at a press conference when confronted with the disparity in his numbers. The media reports on this.--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 17:44, 22 December 2013 (EST)

:::Your chart is missing the the most important factor: how much the person is praised and hyped by the media.  That is what "overrated" refers to.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 17:46, 22 December 2013 (EST)

::::I just mentioned that Manning's flaws are mentioned. And their statistics show that they're some of the best quarterbacks ever - and Brady's playoff success is undeniable. Literally the only reason they're on this list is because they started ahead of a guy with a 9-7 record. Also how many negative stories have we run on Tebow? Perhaps he is overrated by our coverage?--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 17:49, 22 December 2013 (EST)
