He has as many rings as Trent Dilfer and one less than Big Ben.

Do you really have time to waste out of your "remaining days"...
...to be "snicker"ing around in this thread?
You evidently do not take the entire human race relying on your "focus" very seriously at all...

It's 'snickering'.
And, whoever told you that the entire human race is relying on my "focus" lied to you. Didn't think you that gullible, little buddy.
Finally, don't be so sensitive. What I said about Peyton relative to Eli is true.

One which eyer seems to have taken as an personal affront.
Evidently, Peyton allowed little guy Eli to attend a private passing camp led by #18 @ Duke this past week...
...Bronco receivers Demaryius Thomas, Eric Decker and the new guy, Wes Welker, were there, too, as targets.
Here's a shot of Duke head football coach David Cutcliffe telling Eli to quit whining like a little baby and hit the friggin' showers already...

This weekend 18 is at his alma mater Tennessee, pumping-up the football team and fans by big-time backing new head coach Butch Jones; he and his wife are also there to drop-off a $500K check to the Pat Summitt Foundation...
...during a meet with the press, Manning commented on his health status:
Keep in mind that Manning had his 2nd best professional season last year, tossing for "4,659 yards and 37 touchdowns while leading the Broncos to a 13-3 record"...

Has any QB in the history of humanity ever accomplished what P. Manning has in this short season so far...
...Not. even. close.
I used to ponder which team Manning would enter the Hall with; I've even visualized him wearing a half-Colt, half-Denver jersey upon entrance...
...but I'm pretty sure the dupe Irsay has now guaranteed Peyton Manning will be inducted as a Bronco.
Daddy traded away Elway before sneaking out of Baltimore in the dead of night...
...daddy's boy dumped Manning after Manning made the move stick.
Hopefully, mama had at least some hint of brains...
...'cause any her boys had sure were/are pickled.

Peyton is a step above. Calling plays at the line, changing those plays real time against what the defense thinks he is going to do.
Peyton.
The stadium that Pete built.
It just does not get any fucking better.

Even though Peyton did take a beating tonight, which had a significant outcome on the game, it was the Denver Broncos who lost on the road by 6...
...their weak passer-protecting offensive line, another goal line fumble, and their penalty-prone defense being more to blame for that than Manning's 386 yard, 3 TD night.
Manning now has 25 TDs with 3 interceptions (the one tonight squarely on the inadequacy of the Denver O-line), and the Broncos stand 6-1 on the still young season...
...while the ex-Baltimore Colts stand 5-2, with Luck tossing 10 TDs and 3 interceptions.
Luck entered the game ranked as the 21st most proficient QB in the league; Manning was #1 by far. That huge disparity will not be changed by your "Peyton got beat tonight" cheer...
...but you do seem to wear the skirt well, anyways.
eyer, eyer, eyer... you missed the point... Peyton is well respected in Indy -- you didn't see the hype in the local papers talking about having him come back to town. But, the truth of the matter is, Peyton doesn't walk on water... You put me in the unenviable position of sounding like a Tom Brady fan, and hardly anyone from Indy is a NE fan, but compare playoff records and Peyton comes up far short. Someone on this thread even pointed out that Eli has more Super Bowl titles than Peyton.
But, you know, I shouldn't be surprised by reading your other posts. Obviously the dress wearer on this thread would be you... But, I have another news flash for you. If Peyton isn't still married to his wife, he is definitely married to the game -- and either situation would take him off the market as a potential mate for you.

I lived and worked in Speedway full-time from 1985-2008, was a guest of the Colts @ XLl, and I read virtually every word written about Manning @ indystar.com this week...
...so, with your totally irrelevant words above, you simply exemplify why the first three letters in assumption are there.
Yay. Rah.

Manning only has a SB ring because Mrs. McCaskey liked Rex Grossman.
Sometimes the luck swings your way. This time it definitely wasn't in his favor.

Well, kiss my ass then, obviously I was mistaken. By virtue of your having worked in Speedway for 23 years, you certainly are the utmost authority on anything related to Peyton and the city of Indy...
Out of curiosity, if you were 45 years old and you've lived on the planet for all 45 of those years, would that also make you the authority on anything related to the planet? Or, does that only come from being a guest of the Colts @ XLI?
You're the small person in you av, aren't you.
eyer, I think its obvious who the smaller person is here... in looking back through the thread, it seems every time someone offers an opinion that differs from yours, you turn your next few comments towards a personal attack on that person. That's a shame really, but I've learned from having kids that you don't win an argument against one who doesn't have the emotional maturity to carry on an argument based on the conversation that started it. Instead, they resort to name calling and other petty ways of showing their immaturity. My experience has taught me that you can't continue being petty for long and the bigger person needs to move on... you win, my child... obviously you could never be wrong in any regard and could never consider any viewpoint that stands counter to your own. Well, I can make a choice not to continue -- and that's my choice.

So, when he was six and oh, he was a step above and when he lost one, it was a team effort...
I get that.
I get that.
You're right, of course...
...here, let me re-post a perfect example of exactly what you're talking about:
So, for the children...
...perhaps you should consider enrolling your kids in real school instead of fantasizing you can teach them yourself.
So, when he was six and oh, he was a step above and when he lost one, it was a team effort...
I get that.
Actually, you don't...
...you just imagine you do.
6-0, 6-1...
...he's still much more than "a step above".
Your problem is with considering all things relative...
...where my immediate commentary above is primarily focused on the game against the Colts last night.
Eg:
Through 6 games this season, Manning had been sacked a total of 5 times...
...last night the Colts sacked him 4 times; ie, in just one game almost 6 games worth of sacks.
There were also numerous heavy rushings on Manning by the Colts, the one heavy hit by Mathais as Manning's arm was almost coming forward in particular resulting in a 2 pt safety and the ensuing TD by the Colts resulting in a full 9 pt swing...
...all because of Denver's O-line and weak defense.
And, as I also pointed out specifically above, Hillman's goal line fumble was another 7 pt loss...
...that's 16 points right there and that's not even counting Manning's interception when he was hit as he was throwing the ball - again, because of the weakness of the O-line.
Another poster used the team loss to the Colts last night to intentionally target Manning as the one being "beat"...
...I immediately pointed-out that even though Manning did take a beating last night, it was the Denver Broncos who were actually beaten by the Indianapolis Colts - just as I've always highlighted Manning's individual, record-setting accomplishments and personal worsts within the context of whatever team he's a member of.
But you gotta go with the troll, anyway...
...funny thing is, the Chiefs are the only undefeated team left and they and the Broncos still gotta play each other twice this season to decide who wins the division. Now, my understanding of the game is that it is the Chiefs defense which is most responsible for their success this year, and the Colts gave them plenty of clues how to deal with Manning last night.
Yet, I don't see the Broncos giving up 4 sacks and as many QB rushes again this year as they did last extraordinary night, so the Chiefs ain't going to beat 'em that way...
...and no matter how weak the Denver D is looking since last night, Alex Smith in Reid's usual conservative O ain't going to score 33 or more on them either.
Manning is still fully capable of tossing 386 and 3 TDs in both games against the Chiefs...
...so, I reckon all the Chiefs have to look forward to is the Broncos turning the ball over a bunch.
And if that happens, there is a good possibility the Broncos will beat themselves...
...just like they did last night.
On the day after being named the National Football League's Most Valuable Player for a record 5th time (he was also named the NFL's Offensive Player of the Year for the 2nd time in his career), and just hours away now from his 3rd Super Bowl start, here's a solid piece about what's different about Peyton Manning today, while nicely revealing all that's the same about him, too.
Includes a peek at a classic Manningism from his efforts at becoming Tennessee's starting QB as a freshman, and some insightful observations on how Manning plays the pro game from Bill Belichick:

Wait, Manning is in the Superbowl?
I would have never known!
he is obviously not getting anywhere near enough press these days!
I have nothing at all against the man. But I cannot handle another minute of him being shoved down every one's throat
The good thing if you're a Seattle fan is that has to be an entire defense that is so sick of him they are ready to start taking heads off.
