Von Miller backs Peyton Manning as the quarterback G.O.A.T., arguing Manning changed the position with his arm-focused, pre-snap control and his knack for altering plays at the line. The debate with Tom Brady remains fierce, with Brady’s seven rings underscoring longevity, yet Manning’s five MVP seasons and historic single-season yardage and TD marks fuel Miller’s case. The piece also highlights Manning’s humility and his relationships across the facility, framing leadership and study as a bigger differentiator than pure physical tools for fantasy prep.

Brady’s dominance and longevity are acknowledged, but the article leans into Manning’s influence on pre-snap design and offensive evolution, likening the Manning-Brady rivalry to Nicklaus-Palmer—two legends who redefined their sport. For fantasy managers, the key takeaway centers on quarterback processing, audibles, and leadership as much as arm talent, with Miller’s praise spotlighting how a quarterback’s approach can unlock fantasy production beyond raw stats.
