This season of The GOAT podcast is inspired by the New York Times bestselling book Brady vs Manning: The Untold Story of the Rivalry That Transformed the NFL by Gary Myers.
“Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. It’s this generation’s football version of Mantle vs Mays, or Wilt vs Russell. Everyone has an opinion, but some count more than others. Gary Myers has decades of experience covering and reporting on the NFL. He has long been one of the sports most respected and credible writers. His long standing access to both Hall of Fame quarterbacks, plus countless sources who competed with and against them, brings exceptional insight to Myers’ take on one of football’s most compelling and ongoing debates.” —Bob Costas, NBC Sports
