One of the Giants blog said they counted and Eli was asked more Peyton questions today than superbowl questions
Yeah not sure I like this. I know Brady also commented on Peyton since they are friends.
I was kinda hoping it would not be like this but it was near inevitable considering where the SB is and who is in it. *sigh*

Move past Montana in the public view for best ever or tie him or just sit behind him etc?
I am not a big fan of QB rankings. But, if your team has won 4 SBs and you won 2 MVPs and have a few records in your back pocket then like it or not.......Brady will get GOAT consideration by many.
The Montana supporters will point out that he never lost a SB though and never threw a pick in any of them.
The non Brady/Montana supporters will point out it's a team game and that debate will rage on.
Regardless, I have to admit I will be impressed if the Pats win it all this year with THIS defense of theirs which at times this season has looked pathetic to me.
-
Yet they didn't get much pressure at all on Alex Smith.
True. But, then again you go into a Niners game worrying about the run and Davis. I believe SF receivers had one catch in the entire game?!
I also think Smith was pretty craptastic on third downs in that game.
Then again, this is Alex Smith we are talking about people.
-
I also currently like Eli's hair cut more then Brady's.
This is telling to me when it comes to a potential 2 minute game winning drive.
Eli is ready to go based on his hair.

i never was a big fan of farve so him being surpassed by aaron doesnt surprise me. As far as luck he may or may not become an elite qb but to say that he will have the drive like peyton does to be that good is highly unlikely. (Although possible) take rodgers out of the line up n they would still have a good team. (Like the season finale) take manning out of colts line up and they are 2-14. But i do get what you are sayin. I hope im wrong...i just dont think he will ever match manning. Just my opinion
What if he matches him in playoff wins or gets more someday?
Many Packers fans criticized Aaron until he got that ring and now an MVP is coming.
Like I said, it's all about winning. If we end up with Luck and he suceeds his bandwagon will grow larger and larger. The pressure will be on. He is a smart guy though and I think he can deal with it. I don't think many would expect an overnight miracle with the situation here.
Speaking of Luck, I wonder how he feels watching all this unfold in the media and seeing Colts fans wave his jersey around.
-
Before we drafted him Peyton told us if we didnt draft him hed kick our butts up and down the field for the next 15 years. I really believe if we dont bring him back he'll stick to his words (maybe not 15 years)
What if the Luck led Colts beat the Manning led....whoever they are. I mean the world would explode.
Then all of a sudden people like doogan would be on the Luck train since he beat Manning head to head!!!!
-
Then again are we getting into FG range or do we need a TD?
Meh. Can't go wrong with either really. Both have their strengths. I just like Eli's "OMG" moments at times is all. Eli the enigma.
-
Christ.
I wish I didn't start this now. I just meant kinda it seemed like DESTINY that these two teams are here in INDY.
Now the QB debate rages on........
Christ.
-
Eli.
He pulls "stuff" out of his rear at the best times. He has that "OMG what just happened" magic at times.
Hello...Hail Mary vs. Packers this postseason already? That IMO is when it was clear to me destiny was on the Giants side and not the Packers.
-
BTW I kinda feel bad for Eli and Tom right now. The SB QBs are getting overshadowed a bit by the Peyton drama IMO. Fair or not, it's a huge story that is taking a lot from the big game I feel.
-
Well if Manning looks old I don't want you to see a picture of me.
I personally thought he looked pretty good but that is my opinion and it usually isn't worth much. I am a picky female. I can't help it. *sigh* I also was once a makeup artist so I am often staring at skin/wrinkles.
-
See my previous post.
Don't care. I still think Lebron is one of the most mentally soft big star athletes I have ever seen. The league might do what they can to give him a ring though soon. We know the NBA.......
-
your controversy isnt if we draft luck or not, its if we keep peyton. You have been on ghis forum for months preaching to everyoene that peyton is good as gone and we need to except it. We all know we are gonna draft luck. But ur gonna have to eat alot of crow if we keep manning! You will have to disappear from this forum because you will have lost all credibility! Luck may turn out good but ur dreamin if you think he will ever be manning bro. Dont know why you want him gone so bad.
I honestly think it's unfair to compare Luck to anyone right now who is established. IMO he has all the tools/brains/leadership etc. of being a top QB someday but has not even joined the league yet. It is unfair.
I know Packers fans who didn't want Rodgers either once and no way would he replace Favre.
Winning cures everything. If the Luck led Colts someday win big games then people will be kissing his butt. If he is a bust, then we are in trouble.
-
Andrew Luck is only no Lebron....
Good. I guess Luck won't fold like a deck of cards then in his biggest games and in the 4th quarters.
-
I might be alone but this interview made me feel worse about Peyton. He IMO looked old and I felt he just said all the right things people want to hear. It was nothing at times.
If you pick anything up it's that Manning wants to play and fully intends to come back.
I still feel in my gut right now that Manning will be released sometime after the SB. When I don't know. But, I feel the writing has been on the wall and this team is rebuilding around Andrew Luck for a new era.
-
Voted Jets LOL. NO idea really.
But, Rex Ryan LOVES Peyton. He wants to be in the SB so bad and also to beat the Pats so bad. This has Rex Ryan+SB guarantee all over it IMO if Peyton is released.
-
I have to see it too. How many times were we told Sanders would be coming back fully fit..?
Yep. And let us not forget the return of Marvin Harrison to the playoffs in 2007. Worked swell. And he sure looked like his old self the following season. In fact this bugs me, it's sad to see greats decline.
-
I think everyone agrees that eventually the Manning era is to be over. Does it have to be now? do we have to deal in absolutes? Manning or LUCK? the fact that were even saying Lucks name in the same sentence as Manning baffles the mind. I sure minds with alot more insite are working on these decisions as I am also sure that these same minds need to be taking "all" of PM into this decison ie Everything hes done here. All this contingent upon the physical. Lord be with PM and hoping that he returns to the colts as QB or some other capacity. Regardless, those of u Luck, Luck, Luckers, don't be so quick to Railroad PM out. U may get ur wish and Luck "may" be a bust. would ya be posting then?
I have no idea how good Luck may be but he is a talented and intelligent young man. If he is the future I will support him 100%. I won't be like one of the old Favre supporters who booed Rodgers at camp and sent him nasty letters since he "stole" their dream man's job.
-
Speaking of aging.....a close up of Brady shows how dried out his skin is. This is almost sad. He must not be able to sleep thinking about JPP, Tuck and Osi.
-
And what is being described here? Because he looks old to a woman on this forum (WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING). that plays into him not coming back from neck surgery to play football? LOL this is too good.
I think he may play next year. Not sure where though. I think he may be too much a competitor to hang it up. I do think Irsay has been hoping Peyton would retire though to make this easier.
-
His neck would be in actual better shape than prior to the surgery. He can probably take the same amount of hits hes taken over his career, if not more at this point.
I have to see it to believe it. All of it. Call me a skeptic, but I am too used to aging Colts players coming back worse then before.
-
I don't think he will be a bust. He has the physical skills, the brains and the leadership. He has the whole package IMO. It depends on how the team gels around him too and rebuilds.
I also hope some are not hoping he is a bust if the Colts draft him. It's like the die hard Favre fans hoping Rodgers would be a bust. And they were there....and they booed him in TC.....and some even sent bad letters to him. Some despised the guy who replaced their legend.
-
I still think he needs to get hit a few times as well. Can he take the beating?
Cause with our o line......a beating might happen. This scares me more then some I suppose. I just feel like he is a hit away from disaster.
He might be able to throw eventually and throw fine. Can he take the pounding though.
-
And this ^ is the type of observation women are better at than men in many instances.
Manning did say, "the sooner the better" when talking about concluding this matter. I could be wrong but I still don't believe there will be enough medical certainty and/or performance progression in five weeks to trigger the 28M bonus. Don't get me wrong I'd love to have a healthy Manning back, just looking at this at face value. Saw an Irsay video interview where he said (paraphrasing) "I'll leave emotions out of it when making the decision on Peyton." We'll see.
Yes, we are an important part of the world. ;) We see things men don't.
Yes Peyton wants this taken care of the sooner the better he basically implied. Which means following the SB this thing is going to become more hard core then ever IMO.
If Peyton is going to play next year whether it's with the Colts or another team I believe he wants to know where he may be headed sooner then later.
I personally thought he looked pretty good but that is my opinion and it usually isn't worth much.

So there I did it. I just started a thread on Brady and his rankings if he wins this game.
Have at it folks. And realize it is a debate if Brady wins this game Sunday. A strong one.
But, in some ways this game does seem strange to me being the location and who is in it. Yikes.
