He's now playing with better talent surrounding him than he has the last few years in Indy with a better defense... and Brady still beat him (convincingly until our defense began to crap out, I might add).
1. Brady

And this is America. I'm not going to "give you" anything. You have to earn it.
I don't like to look at a football game as QB vs QB. It's a team sport. If you want to look at it as "Brady still beat him", well Eli beat Brady twice in the biggest game in sports. But that's not true because Eli really didn't beat Tom Brady, the Giants beat the Patriots.
I'm not looking at it as a head to head match-up. When they played, Denver had the better defense than New England. The Pats were still smacking them around well into the 4th quarter. Brady has been better in recent years and he's better now. Not to diminish Manning's season, as he's still been very good. But he hasn't been Brady, nor has he had to deal with the issues (makeshift O-Line, injuries to the top two receiving options, etc.) that Brady has.

Honorable mention Big Ben . . .
Peyton racked up most of his stats against terrible defenses (Raiders, Saints, Pats(secondary)).
I'm not sure what to make of the steelers defense considering it hasn't been the same this year with all the injuries and whatnot but he played well against them and the Chargers so some credit there.
