The only truly "elite" defense that either of them ever played with was the defense that carried a broken, awful Manning to a SB in Denver. Brady played with some good defenses in his early years but none were like that Denver defense. Only Dilfer benefited from a defense as much as Manning that year. That SB counts on Manning's all time record, but they won it in spite of him not because of him.
The Bucs defense was more responsible for their championship than Brad Johnson. Although, Johnson was much better than Dilfer.
