New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning always have a score to settle to determine who is the best. This Sunday they will meet against in what is being dubbed the Brady Manning Bowl XVI and this game could have huge implications.

The Patriots come into Sunday game at 6-2 and are riding high on a four-game winning streak that has seen the resurgence of Pats tight end Rob Gronkowski and the Patriots offense. Last week Brady threw for five TDs against the Chicago Bears. The Broncos have been equally impressive with a stellar offense and defense. They are 6-1.

If these two teams meet again in the AFC Championship like they did in January, will the road to the Super Bowl go through Denver or Gillette Stadium? On Sunday, the team that does a better job of controlling the line of scrimmage and establishing a running game that will enable them to keep the opposing offense off the field the longest will triumph.

Regardless, when Brady and Manning go head to head the results are nothing less than legendary. Patriots fans will never forget the incredible comeback the Pats pulled off against the Broncos a year ago when they were down 24-0 at halftime.

Broncos fans are still reveling in the thorough take down of the Patriots in the last AFC title game, but smarting from the beat down their team experienced two weeks later in the Super Bowl against the Seattle Seahawks.

Brady holds a 10-5 career record against Manning when he led the Colts and now the Broncos, but two of the Patriots defeats were in AFC Championship games that derailed the Patriots drive to another Super Bowl title.
