From the same article...
“Every game he has played, I have watched,” [Tom]Brady said. “I have file folders of his plays, of how he plays. It’d take years for me to watch it all again. But what he’s done in Denver has been incredible. Think of what he did—changing teams, changing organizations, at his age, and then in four years going to two Super Bowls with that team.
 Manning started and well Brady said it well

jc...
Watching Manning run 'his' no huddle offense was like watching the conductor of an orchestra. His ability to pre-read and manipulate defenses was unmatched.
Glad to see him go out on top!

He was an old era QB in the sense he could call his own plays!
Curious to the fact finders on this board.
Has any QB other then Payton win Super Bowls with 2 different teams?
jmh?

jmh? He was the first to win one with two separate teams unless you count Plunkett with Oak then 3 years later with the LA Raiders. Kindof ironic that Warner took the St Louis Rams and the former St Louis Cards (Arizona) to SB's.

Just for the record...its not the City its the TEAM Name that counts Unless you are a big fan then it has to be City and Team to be real at least for me. Feel sorry for those Raider fans...back and forth.
Why the Jets and Giants refuse to take NEW YORK out of their names. Neither play and I think neither practice in New York...so what part of them is New York? Oh yeah I forgot...their bank accounts are in New York City...lol

I'll take the HOF QB with SB experience any day thank you.  Maybe we should revisit this subject in a year to see how far "Brock Osweiler" takes the Bronco's. This doesn't make any sense. The Broncos are going to lose a lot more guys than just Manning. They're probably going to lose Malik Jackson and Demarcus Ware. That's just off the top of my head. They are definitely losing Jackson. It looks like they'll be able to keep Ware.

Doesn't make sense? Defense shouldn't effect the offense production. Let's revisit, then instead of hypothetical s, we'll have hard stats.

great press conference ... love him or hate him
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
