We can only hope! He did mark it personal and confidential.
Simply superb..lol
-
This is fantastic. LOL
Someone at least saw it, even if just a lowly staffer. I can live with that.
On second thought, being that it was a courier package, I'll bet it went right to his personal box. YES!
-
It was delivered by UPS. To his attention. Now whether or not he has an assistant that tosses it in the trash or not I don't know, but I know for a fact it was delivered.

I would even send the refs on a blitz, someone is bound to tackle somebody.
or trip over somebody at least. -
My brother sent one of these to Caldwell. Wonder if Barnes & Noble has an extra copy?
I sincerely hope this is true and it made its way to his desk.

Yeah, that's kind of what makes him a great passer. All QBs are taught the right location to throw the ball depending on the route, receiver skill set etc etc, but only the best in history have been able to put the ball in those locations on a consistent basis and that is what makes him a great passer.

The ones who do it the best, get paid the most dollars. Great passers get paid the most dollars. Peyton Manning gets paid the most dollars.
-
Yeah from 1967
-
I never said that Peyton wasn't a competent passer, just that if you were to list why he is a great QB, I would not list a great Passer as the number 1 reason.
Now we're just splitting hairs.
-
Just for those keeping score at home.
John Elway 56.9 career completion %.
Jeff George 57.9 career completion %.
How dare you use numbers!
-
I guess we disagree, he reads the defense and to me puts the catcher of the pass in the best position to make the easiest catch. To me you can be a great passer and not be a great QB.
No, you can have a cannon arm and not be a great QB.
You can not be a great QB and not be an exceptionally competent passer. They go hand-in-hand.
-
I feel Manning puts the ball in good positions to catch not because of his arm so much but due to his ability to read defense and put the reciever in a good position. Manning doesn't have an exceptionaly strong arm, he can't "fire" it in there like say Elway could of even Rogers or Farve.
Exceptionally strong? Of course not, but having a rifle for an arm does not a good passer make.
And mind you, he doesn't "put" his receivers anywhere, he puts the BALL where his receivers have the best chance to make a play on it. Anywhere on the field. Hence, great passer.

One would think. But like SHOE said, this will be the week we throw 60 times, and I'll add this will be the week we unveil our new nickel-3 defense.

Sunday is going to be my first trip to LOS, I'm coming from Jersey. I'll be in section 453 row 1. Even though it's been a rough season I am still stoked to see them play at home.
Do the bars around the stadium open early on gamedays? Any suggestions on where I should go to get some drinks before the game?
Colts Grille!

There is more involved in being a great QB then just being a great passer, in fact I don't believe being a great passer = being a great QB. Joe Montana was not a great passer but is a great QB, John Elway was a great passer and is a great QB. There are a number of things that go into being a HOF QB, you don't have to be tops in each of those things.
I simply don't understand your logic. To be a successful QB, an elite QB, you better be able to put the football on point, with velocity, and on time. Throw more touchdowns than interceptions, etc. etc. Are these not attributes of a good/great passer? The difference between bad/good/great more than likely being accuracy with velocity and touchdowns vs. interceptions?
I mean, Manning has thrown some poop balls in his day but they are few and far between. C'mon.
-
Let me rephrase this.
Let's see a list of attributes that make for a great passer.
I've lost my curiosity and really don't want to know what his answer is going to be....
-
If that is the case i am sure this wont be the game we will throw it 60 times. we will pound the rock at their solid line.
LOL

Manning has a decent arm (well, had up until just recently, hope it returns!), superb vision and poise, uncanny awareness in the pocket, and the ability to maneuver under pressure and reset his balance (people mistakenly refer to this as "happy feet") almost in one motion to make a throw.
Oh, and he's extremely accurate. Sounds like a great passer to me.
-
Go Harbaugh!
-
So the Quarterback Challenge? Really,.. That is your answer?
That's like saying someone that could win a slam dunk contest is a great basketball player.
Again, Let's see a list of attributes that make for a great passer.
Alright, now I'm curious too.
-
:disco:
-
And to state that the only one who can run the present Colt offense is Peyton, is a bit well ....
Look no further than Curtis Painter.
-
what would be funny would be if that was the night Manning was cleared to play
We're gonna get a 40 burger dropped on us.
-
Well if Tom Moore said it then it must be the fact....
Absolutely. He's no Joe Fan.

I would say we are where we are because (1) we are missing Peyton and (2) For whatever reason the Colts made a very poor choice for the backup QB. If we had a viable backup this team is like 3-6 or maybe even 4-5 this season, however with the person manning the QB position right now the odds of us winning is not very good. And who knows...maybe that was the master plan of those in charge from the start?
Of COURSE we're missing Manning. That goes back to my main point. Who's more valuable to the team? Who's more responsible for the run of success? The Polians just because they made the right choice in 1998?? %$^@$
Who's responsibility is it to assess the back QB position so that we have at least a decent one? Joe Fan sure realizes that Painter is horrifying. Which raises questions for me on what Sorgi was actually capable of. If they (the Polians) think Painter is/was decent, they probably had the same misconception about Sorgi so for all we know we may never have had a decent backup QB in the Manning era.
Who's decision was it to sign Collins? I mean, Manning as awesome as he is, shouldn't be the difference between 10-13 wins vs. possible 0'fer. I'm sorry, not buying it. Even with an awful QB.
or trip over somebody at least.

2 Randy Moss clones (the 2007 NE version), 3 Jerry Rice clones, 5 wide -- The Painter still wouldn't complete more than 50% of his passes and wouldn't even come close to +5YPA.
