Greenie says of course, the two QBs would consider their teams' head-to-head wins/losses as a "personal battle", while Golic feels that only players who compete directly against each other, like WRs and DBs, or offensive guards and defensive tackles, etc. should be respected. I think that in football, QBs and their egos and levels of responsibility for their entire team dictate that they be considered "personal rivals".
Peyton vs Tom in the 2000's is the closest thing we will get to Cowboys vs 49ers when Aikman took on Young's 49ers in the 90's.
A breakdown of the teams best 7 season period in their respective deacde:
Tom's Pats from 2001-2007 were 86-26 in the Regular Season with 3 SB wins
Peyton's Colts from 2003-2009 were
89-23 in the Regular Season with 1 SB win
Aikman's Cowboys from 1990-1996 were 77-35 in the Regular Season with 3 SB wins
Young's 49ers from 1992-1998 were 84-28 in the Regular Season with 1 SB win
