How did Peyton Manning survive so many underwhelming playoff performances? His defenses weren't bad

it was pouring out most of the game

so in a year where he had 31 tds 8 ints leading the second ranked offense where the defense was ranked 23rd just because he didn’t put up huge numbers in the SB the defense carried him to a SB that year lol

That’s some tremendous logic

i said the defense won the Super Bowl, said nothing about anything before that dumbass nikka. When you learn how to read properly then quote me you fukkin bird

Because you're acting like he never was in that conversation.

No…I said he shouldn’t have been in it to begin with, he over achieved in the regular season. I never acted like he wasn’t in the convo, so once again wtf are you talking about…?

Fading into obscurity?? You're fukking delusional.

GOAT level players fade into obscurity with time clown ass fanatic…Peyton mannin will be an honorable mention at best and there will always be someone who bring up his playoff / Super Bowl flops….

Same is about to happen to Aron Rodgers if he doesn’t win any other rings with good playoff performances, and he’s better than manning :manny:

Anyone who says this is on literal crack. Explain to me how is he better than Manning. He doesn't have the stats nor the rings to back up your claim that he is better. So explain that fukking shyt to me.

He didn't get a pass at the time. People seem to forget that the Peyon we know now - the charismatic, goofy, witty, affable guy - is essentially a modern-ish creation. The Colts Peyton was a guy who many people AT THE TIME argued was a great regular season QB who got clowned in the playoffs by Brady or someone else. That was the narrative. Kinda similar to how Lamar Jackson gets clowned, the way people say "ok well do it in the playoffs" etc.

I knew the transformation was complete when I saw this shyt


Corny but kinda likable. But that was the perception. Ol' Peyton, beloved by his teammates, slanging the ball. By that point people didn't even care that he had thrown for 55 TDs in a season only to get utterly embarrassed in the SB by Seattle. My uncle always says some players just reach a point where people associate them with football, and once that happens they become myth. No one cares about the MULTPIPLE choke jobs anymore. Same with Favre.

The colts routinely had a bad defense in all those peyton years. The year they won the SB their defense finally nutted up but they let MJD rush for like 250 one game.



That was one of the worst displays of run defense I’ve ever seen in an NFL game. Amazing that they went on to win the Super Bowl.

Bob Sanders was great during his peak, him getting healthy was really key for that SB run.

No I'm pressed because Aaron is not better than Manning at all and blows my mind blown on how anyone could think that.

They not even that close in stats. Aaron gotta play at least 4 more seasons of high level football to match and even if he does it would have taken him longer to do it.

Yall niggss are mad delusional.

He’s a choke artist clown, bills went to 4 Super Bowls and don’t have shyt to show for it but ticket stubs. You can go to 10 Super Bowls and still choke…

This alien head fakkit is fading into obscurity quicker than I thought. Went from a supposed “goat” to barely mentioned at all. He isn’t even better than his little brother in big games :russ:

Man gtfhoh with that

It wasn’t “pouring out” the whole game and compared to mannings other super bowl avgs, it’s debatable if it made much of difference since that’s arguably his best super bowl performance.


Doesn’t matter like I said anyway, only 2 Super Bowl dude has were gifted to him by his team’s play and defense. Not his qb play, could’ve subbed in any number of qbs and got the same results or better



He was forced into the goat convo for awhile, now it’s “he’s top 5 in stats” :russ:

Now he’s just mentioned as a great qb :yeshrug:

until these young cats with 17 game seasons start to push this clown further into irrelevancy…

Bruh they have him in the mountrushmoure of qbs he's considered top 3 at worst qb

Peyton is the 2nd greatest QB in my book. :ehh:

His downfall is that he controlled too much of the offense. His timing offense often gets disrupted sometimes even get murdered in the playoffs because the intensity goes up tenfold. and after the surgery his arm strength got weaker and weaker. you can see the difference in arm strength between brady and manning in this famous game




LOB was able to exploit him because Manning didn't have the arm strength and got confused by the speed and length of that D. that was never a problem for Brady, the GOAT. sometimes we forget the game of football is very simple. you gotta be able to thread the needle with not only precision, but with velocity. Manning lost his fastball around 2009. he had good enough arm, but when it came to a crunch game his weakness showed. in a way his ego got in his way because he refused to adapt. he refused to let the coordinator call plays. he needed to rely more on the run game and more on dink and dunk to compensate his ultimate weakness.


but no doubt, he was great brehs. He is the ultimate football genius. some of the things he's done was pure genius. i mean it's crazy how smart he was.

I have him over Montana simply because overall body of the work and his impact on the game. between montana and manning - if you ask me who i would pick win a playoff game then i would go Montana. but if you ask me to pick a player to start a franchise then peyton easily wins over Montana.

bruh don’t bring that basketball shyt here. You don’t win a SB by yourself. It is an entire team effort. Minute someone talks that individual shot thry lose me in the conversation.

Bro i hate how they're forming narratives then forming "stats" and putting them out there to compliment their creative narratives to make it seem like qbs do everything on their own. Like its not a game with 3 different facets and 50 players getting snaps in the game.
I saw some bullshyt made up "stat" flash across the screen that said something like Lamar jackson is the youngest player to get to so and so amount of wins" i was like :what: since when is football racecar driving and he the only one out there.
It's so stupid but its driven by the need to compare players so they can ramble on those debate shows about top 5 list
:smh:/
