Peyton Manning in the playoffs.
 
It was good to see Peyton finally come through for the Colts.

Looking forward AFCCG and NFCCG next week.

He's done. Ironic that his last game of his career was losing to the Colts.

Considering he helped the colts win the superbowl in 2007 right here in Miami, it's tough to say that he "finally came through."

He's one of the best of all time along with Dan Marino. Anybody that says otherwise is completely delusional.

Unlike the other skill positions for Quarterbacks the gold standard is performance in the post-season. Manning, just like Marino was a regular season god, that had a long productive career and set a lot of records. Unfortunately he basically chokes in the clutch.

9-11 in the playoffs
One and done 8 times in the playoffs.
Most home playoff losses ever.

He's never going to be able to hide from his playoff stats. Trying to brush them aside would also be completely delusional.

He's a tremendous quarterback. One of the best, one of my favorites but I have to agree, he isn't 'Mr. Clutch'.

I heard he said he'd play another year if the Broncos want him. I'd be surprised if they didn't want him for another year, there really is no better option there. Next year will have to be some sort of a rebuilding year for them, one where either they really commit to osweiller using Peyton as a teacher or hope for the best in the draft. Because once Peyton is gone, they have nothing lol. A great supporting cast

Agreed that he is not at the same level of Tom Brady (extremely hard to say for a dolphin fan), but he is without a doubt one if the best nfl players any of us will see in our lifetimes.

Don't get too caught up with the thought of your quarterback being the most important piece of your team. Tremendous defense with average qbs can still win championships. Unless Russell Wilson, Eli Manning, Joe flacco, and Brad Johnson are elite quarterbacks in your book.

At least Peyton got a ring, unlike Marino.

Marino has a movie, Peyton only has commercials.

Lol. "Laces out!!"

Peyton has been great and its hard to fully blame him for the Colts. The Colts were not the best at having a well rounded team. Their defense was an issue during Peytons time there as alot of money was spent on their offense.

I thought this would be the Bronco's year with all the players added on defense and CJ showing up, but the last 6 games, Peyton was off. The loss this weekend wasn't all him(dropped passes and oline being burned), but he threw some bad passes and ugly ducks. Reminded me of Favre when he tried to play that last year. I think his body may be done.

Actually, Wilson may not be there yet, but I think he is the leagues next elite QB. Yes, his defense is good, but he is also a smart and mobile QB that can take games into his hands.

Perfect example of a QB that was carried to a SB..........Trent Dilfer

Hmmm. Interesting debate with Russell. I don't think he'll be nearly as effective without that incredible defense and the star of the offense: marshawn lynch.
