Peyton manning

[the addict]

Let it begin

If he retires...

Top 5 ever no doubt IMO

Top 3 ever? Top 2? Best?



Hard to argue, that a larger or more crucial innovator of the game, has ever existed...

5 NFL MVP'S....most ever

4 SB'S
2X SB champ
1X SB MVP



Every record in colts history
Many records in NFL history


And the dude was a winner and worked Harder than many who have done it at this level...teammates and coaches love em...


To me he's top 3 ever

 

[the addict]

I look at the league and how much it's changed...and society in general...he managed to do things the right way and stay true to himself....very humble.....and was a much needed role model in a era where the media is dominated by players involved in domestic violence, dog fighting, bar fights, shootings, drugs, dui's, etc....


He is a class act who just happens to be an unbelievable talent....


He may be my 1st pick if I'm getting to pick a Starting Qb while in their prime to start my franchise with...


And his SNL skits are amazingly awesome...dude is funnier then most think....


And like Google does with their hiring process, I like to think of athletes using the "airport theory"...if you were stuck with a famous athlete in a airport for 12 hours, who would you hope it to be.....manning seems like he'd be a genuine cool dude to share a few beers with.

Gonna miss watching the sherif on Sunday's.

peyton was great,but he has to go....it`s time...that game was just awful offensively for him.....

Top 5 no question !

 

[the addict]

I sure hope he retires

This is the best possible ending he could ask for

 

[gjn23]

3rd at best....probably 4th

Still take brady and montana over him and probably elway who did more with shit than anyone ever (name 1 decent offensive player he had until davis)

 

[gardenweasel]

newton just walked out of his press conference....manning would never,ever do that....

he`s the mvp of the league...the face of the league....you can`t "style" when things are going your way and slink away and sulk when things go south...

very bad move by newton...

 

[Bisket23]

won 2 super bowls because of his defense/running game.....terrible stats overall in the big game

 

[lowell]

Newton is and always has been a thug and a thief. Got away with so much in college because of his talent but the chickens have come home to roost.

the very thing that his supporters in the media said he had out grown with maturity.

that whole me me me me me me me me me me me me me generation still don't get it.

and probably never will.

Just watched some of the post game


Peyton hugs papa John


Peyton is going to drink budweiser


He is one hell of a marketer. ...the product placement is funny.... .suprised he didn't pull a geico lizard out of his helmet



Dude is such a professional though...he knew if he discussed retirement during the post game it would take away from his teammates...


Bisket we agree on a lot ....but I know you are a anti Peyton guy. ..you don't think he is a top 5 qb? Top 8?
