I don't think Brady is overrated but I do believe that the media talks up his feats even when they are more the result of other players doing amazing things. For example, that 100-yard TD that he threw to Welker against the Dolphins. That was essentially a 10-yard pass that Welker turned into a 100 yard TD. But all you heard that week was how awesome Brady was.
Now, fast-forward to the Steelers/Cards game a few weeks ago. Ben throws a perfect 40-50 yard bomb to Wallace who then turns it into a 100 yard TD (it was called 95 yards but that's really inaccurate because Ben threw it from the end zone). Ben got some praise, but all anyone really talked about was how fast Wallace is, despite the throw being much more impressive than the one Brady did.
