The New England Patriot’s Tom Brady has been revealed as the number one player in the Top 100 as voted for by the players. The question is; does he deserve to hold the number one spot? A quick glance at the figures he chalked up in 2010 shows that he has added another outstanding season to an already hugely impressive career.
· W-L 14-2
· Comp Pct 65.9
· Passing Yds 3,900
· TD-Int 36-4 (That’s a ratio of 9!)
· Passer Rating 111.0
As if all that wasn’t enough he threw an incredible 339 straight passes without throwing a pick and was named league MVP for 2010. Furthermore Brady seems to be capable of producing this standard of play no matter what the weather conditions are. Brady’s career stats are no less impressive with three Super Bowl rings, two NFL MVPs and six pro Bowls to his name.
I believe that the only other possible contender for the number one spot is Payton Manning, who was voted in at number two. The Indianapolis Colts Quarterback threw for an impressive 4,700 yards and 33 touchdowns this season finishing with a win-loss record of 10-6. However, he balanced out those 33 TDs with 17 interceptions in contrast to Brady’s mere 4 picks. Ultimately I think it was that clinical precision from Brady which helped see the Patriots produce four more wins than the Colts thus earning him the right to be crowned the best player of 2011.
