During an appearance on Glory Daze with Johnny Manziel, Miller expressed his liking for Manning as the greatest quarterback of all time. “There’s gonna be a debate between Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, who’s the best, you know, for me, it’ll always be Peyton Manning,” he said. “Peyton Manning changed the quarterback position from checking … He changed the play. Come on. Check the play. Change the play again. Go over the top. He wasn’t scrambling and doing that and stuff. He did it all with his arm, and it was beautiful, man."

“And Tom Brady obviously, seven Super Bowls over the years. I’ve gotten to know Tom Brady a little bit as well. And you know you root for Tom Brady, too. Both of those guys are the greats, for sure.”

Individual achievements

Manning has already been included in the Pro Football Hall of Fame after holding virtually every passing record at the time of his retirement, and Brady will join him soon enough. Brady played nine Super Bowls with the New England Patriots and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
