Impossible. He's going to have to win at least 3 more Super Bowls and a couple more League MVP's. Until he does that, Tom Brady will be the (future) best quarterback in history.

The only thing about the Super Bowls is that a championship depends on SO much more than how good the quarterback is. There are so many variables in winning a Super Bowl, and the quarterback is only a very small portion of that. If you base it on Super Bowls, then you could say that Trent Dilfer was better than Dan Marino, because Dilfer won a Super Bowl with the Buccanneers, and Marino never won one. Don't get me wrong, Brady is incredible. But Manning is a scientist of football. I don't think there's ever been a quarterback with as much football intelligence as Manning. The Colts could probably get by without an offensive coordinator, just letting Manning do it himself. But they all have a long way to go to catch up with Favre's records.

A sign of respect maybe? A marketing ploy?

Personally I'd say the idea started from the former, and came to fruition by the latter.

I've only seen two people in this whole thread spell his name correctly.

Farve was a great quarteback but the greatest thing ive seen him do was lose to John Elway in the superbowl
