Again, realize circumstance. The Colts made sure they secured the #1 overall pick so they made sure they didn't much games at all. Also, they were starting Curtis Painter and Kerry Colins, notice when they bring in Orlovsky, they won 2 out of their last couple of games if I'm not mistaken.
The 11-5 year was a result of Cassel losing to every good team (5) that Brady beat. That 11-5 year would've been a 16-0 year given a pretty easy schedule they received that year. Plus, Brady has only had some 4-5 years good receiving talent, 2-3 years of consistent rushing talent, and has had bad defenses the last couple of years. Peyton has had a couple thousand yard rushers if I'm not mistaken, good receiving talent, and at least 5 years of a Top 5 defense. But this isn't the point.
But the point of this post isn't to say which QB is better, is to say they using a select few statistics to determine a certain QB's skill (in this case, awareness) is inaccurate.

NFL analyst and experts praise Manning and rave over what he does in that pocket. He is the perfect example of a surgeon general. He is the most aware QB i have ever seen and the stat's i posted have backed all of this up. Brady is elite, yes, and a sure fire HOF'er, but If were being realistic nobody can touch Manning on awareness. Since this is "Who is the most aware QB" I will only touch on that. I could debate with you all day about Brady vs. Manning but we'll save that for another day haha
