Enough is enough. Peyton Manning is the greatest QB of all time.

Jesus, how does anyone on VSN deal with you? You contribute...NOTHING. You sit back and make blanketing comments about someone's posts and make arbitrary rulings on the legitimacy of said posts based on...nothing. No matter what kind of argument someone formulates, if you don't agree with it, it's "wrong" and they're "retarded". Stop being such a pudwhack-troll.

Bump

Bump

Who was this tirade about?

[Houston]

him

[Len B]

Not trying to take anything away from Manning, but he picked a damn good year to be away from the game.

With Houston twice, Pittsburgh, New England, Tampa Bay, New Orleans, Atlanta and Baltimore on the schedule, it would have been a tough year for Manning to make much of anything with the current roster.

The team hasn't had a good draft in a while, and their lack of talent is starting to show. Bring in a half drunk Kerry Collins, and when the Colts go 2-14/3-13 fans can pretend like Manning would've made them 12-4 and cement him as the #1 QB of all-time without even playing.

Yes... yet, no. I mean, c'mon. If Peyton were in right now, the Colts are 2-0 in my mind. I mean, Houston's running game lit up Indy, but Matt Schaub wasn't all that hot in that game. Kerry Collins fumbled the ball three times and I'm pretty sure the Colts did not convert a third down the entire game. I'm sorry, but Peyton Manning wouldn't do that and the landscape of that game would have entirely changed if he were in.

And Peyton Manning would have creamed the Browns. No doubt. It's just aggravating to watch this offense only put up field goals. And I'm not even a Colts fan. This was the 3rd or 4th best offensive team in football and now, they're the worst. So, no, they probably wouldn't have gone 12-4, but with Peyton, they win the division and have a double digit win season 10-6/11-5 and that's FAR better than what they have now.

I guess...except for the fact that any season Manning was going to miss most/all of it would have been a scheduling nightmare for the Colts because 1. They are missing the GOAT and 2. The reason they are playing such a tough schedule is because they had Peytom damn Manning as their QB the season before and they won a bunch of games/made the playoffs.

When was the last time the Colts had an easy schedule with Manning at QB? Why would it all of a sudden change when he gets unexpectedly sidelined?

Why do you have Houson on there at all? That's two games they play every season saying he picked a "good season" to miss and then starting the list with a team they play twice every season makes no sense. Especially in regards to a team Manning usually handles rather easily. It'd be like Aaron Rodgers going down and saying he chose a good year to get hurt because the Packers play the Bears twice this season.

[JeremyHight]

I agree with the bump, how else would we be certain that Manning is the greatest regular season QB of all time? I'd still take 2-3 QBs over him in the playoffs, though.

[Glenbino]

BUUUUUUUUUUUUMP

[SethMode]

It's amazing to me that an average QB like Manning was just lucky enough to be blessed with all star WRs every one of his 15 seasons at the position. Unlike the other QBs in the NFL, who all somehow manage to win games with undrafted bums at WR.

Just go ahead and thank the OP if you haven't already. Or you can just send me a friendly PM if you don't wan't to be shamed publicly.

Peyton Manning is the greatest regular season quarterback of all time. And he will cement his legacy as not the greatest post season quarterback of all time when Cincinatti rolls into Denver and holds them to 24 points in a few weeks.

Regular season Manning > cold weather, choke in the playoffs Manning

[Maynard]

throwing 55 td's and 5500 yard in todays game does not make him the goat.

Joe Montana is the goat

Joe Montana is the goat

throwing to all star receivers and having better head coaches doesn't make you GOAT either.
