[B.I.G.Poppa]

One of the greatest QBs of all time! Too bad about this season though.

[ejiminee]

A true "Field General".

I love that Prestige Patch Auto!!!!

[gladdyontherise]

Peyton is amazing to watch

[OriolesFan]

Without a doubt he is the BACKBONE of the Colts. Too bad for them that he is out for the season.

[schwood]

One of the greatest QBs I have ever seen play. Very unfortunate for the Colts.

That Prestige patch is completely nasty!

[wheeler281]

One of the best players ever to play as well as one of the biggest postseason underachievers.

disagree.....you are just now seeing what he had to work with...that team is not much without that guy and he makes avg players look waaayyy better than what they are...Marvin Harrison would have been a nobody!

The players around him have nothing t do with how horrible Painter or Collins are.. He was 9 and 10 in the playoffs most the time a 1 or 2 seed...
The year he won the superbowl he had a combined postseaon rating with the superbowl mvp perofrmance of 70.. The players bailed him out to get there

[Oilman]

as an observant of the AFC South a little more so than others (because my team is in it) You have your reasoning for Mannings playoff numbers a little askew...it was more due to the players around him not picking up their game to playoff level..o-line not blocking, receivers not getting open and so forth..haha, i don't think any player around him has ever bailed him out of anything...

Wow, im finding myself defending a player i can't stand...just calling it the way i have observed it

[munchman34]

Well Peyton is good but saying Marvin Harrison would have been nobody without him is crap. Marvin would have been a successful NFL player on ANY TEAM!!!!

[cornwellfamily]

A great QB. Just wish he was playing.

[JesRey]

It just shows you how much of an impact Peyton has on the Colts. One of the greatest

[ucffans]

An 0-5 season shows how important he is to his team. If you measure an MVP by how your \team does without you, he should have been MVP 10 times by now.
