Manning, Peyton. Enough said

So why would a team give Peyton Manning a short field? Well I think it might just be beacuse with two minutes left after the punt and one timeout remaining jackass Bill Belichick knew what I knew, Manning was going to score either way. He just did it the possession before. He has now comeback 40 times in his career.

To watch Peyton Manning really is fun, and I look forward to watching him almost as much as my own team because of the way he has mastered the game. I know there are a lot of people out there that probably do not like him, just like me and a lot of people do not like players, and a quarterback, like Tom Brady. But I do not know how you can watch Manning and not respect his game.

Last night was a great example, and a great example is this year in terms of how he can probably put me and my dog out wide to the right and complete 55% of his passes. Halfway into this season there are five players that have 24 or more catches, two of which were nobody's coming into the year in Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie who have combined for 61 receptions.

Oh, and he has only completed nearly 70% of his passes, thrown 20 touchdowns, and has a passer rating of 104.3 while leading his team to 9-0 thus far. No big deal.

Sure people will question the decision by the grump Belichick, but why not just respect what Manning can do? It was just so much fun to watch, enjoy it because they do not all come like him.
