Looks like Brady v Manning is finally settled (1 Viewer)

I've always wondered how good Peyton's superstars really were and how much of it was just that they happened to be the guys that had Peyton Manning throwing to them. Brandon Stokely looked like an elite player when Peyton was throwing him the ball too.I think Harrison and Edge were legitimately elite players, but is anyone convinced that guys like Reggie Wayne and Austin Collie are? Do we still believe that Dallas Clark is significantly better than any of the other 20 pass catching TEs that litter the NFL now, Hernandez/Gronk included?
:goodposting: This is what is more revealing with Manning out. Harrison was an excellent receiver, but not anywhere near his numbers would indicate. I don't think there is much difference between him and a guy like Rod Smith. And Wayne never was an elite receiver.

:thumbdown: Wow...
 
Too many people assume that the Colts would be a 10+ win team with Manning this year. With a healthy Manning, they scoop up some wins but I don't think they would sniff the playoffs.
