    Terrible premise...when comparing players of different eras, you can certainly debate the achievement (such as passing yds in a season) if the players played different amounts of games but in this case, they didnt. Also, to add the fuel to the fire, Marino' s 1985 season is still more impressive than what Brees did this year because of the rules changes over 26 seasons which have favored the passing game. Keep in mind that Brady will most likely exceed Marino's total, too.

    He made his Wr's hall of famers. Marino is in a class that Brees should not be mentioned in. That class is in no order Marino,Brady,Elway and Montana. To be honest,I know you are a Pats fan,Brady is the best I have ever seen lace them up.

    4everyoung-

    You're crazy if you think Brady is the best to ever lace them up. And those receivers were flat out good. Marino didn't make them hall of famers. I love Marino but let's get real. Brees is on his way to be one of the all time greats. He just needs to continue his body of work for another 5-7 years.

The Babe needed less games than Maris and Mantle to get 62.

    So, it's only fair to wonder what Marino would have had with say--another 60-80 attempts, well since Dan the Man averaged a ridiculous 9 yards per pass which is so Tecmo bowl good. He would have had another 540 yards at with 60 attempts.

    My all time Marino game was hanging 38 on those 85 Bears and their big bad defense.


    Brees will break Marino's passing record...but he is no Marino, and that is a fact.


    How many Super Bowls did Marino win? End of discusion and thread.

Brees is on his way to be one of the all time greats. He just needs to continue his body of work for another 5-7 years.

    I am not saying he is great as of right now. But if he wins another ring and gets 3500-4500 yds for the next 5-7 years then he will be considered one of the best. Saying he is not even in the same league as Marino just isn't the case. I would take Marino over Brees any day but Brees has a lot of life left in him.
