While brees and ARod are elite QBs and no doubt HOFers I don't think they are in the same class as PM / TB for the most part.
Not entirely sure either, I look at Peyton and Tom and I see possibly the Goats of the game, we've seen Peyton break record after after record and put up video game numbers all while being the entire coaching staff on a team, in all honestly, he prob doesn't need an HC / OC.
And I look at Tom and I see someone who's done it with so many different offensive philosophy's and still be great, not to mention the post season success.
I think what hurts Aaron is those first few years of sitting in the sense we possibly didn't get to see it all, think about it, he's already 31, his Oline play has been shakey he last few years, didn't really have a runnin game and no that defense is shakey as well. HoFer? Yeap, best QB today, possibly, goat? Nah.
As for Brees, those first few years were solid in SD, he comes to NOLA and puts up some ridiculous numbers, but then Last year you see the absense of Sean, and now you think... is it the man? Or is I both? Granted he's a HoFer, but same class as Tom and Peyton? I just don't see it.
It's like the other dudes in the Hall, where their in there cause of their numbers and fame at the time when they were playing, but their names don't come with the same weight as other players.
