Peyton Manning playoff record and stats by age 27

Recommended Posts

By the time Peyton Manning was 27 years old he had been in the league as a starter for 6 seasons and made the playoffs 3 times.  Here were his playoff stats and record by that stage in his career

 

0-3

 

Comp percentage 47.6%

 

TDs:  1

 

INTs:  2

 

PPG: 11 (16, 19, and 0)

 

 

Let Cam grow and learn and get more experience.  Quit acting like what he is now is what he will always be.  Peyton by the time he was 27 and a 6 year starter was still struggling at times and learning, especially in the playoffs.  Why do some of you guys act like Cam should be better than him at this stage??

 

 

 

Most of you already see these things and know these things.  The "realists" who think they are more enlightened than the "blind homer nuthuggers" are the ones who seem to be missing it.

Its sad to see everyone try to burn Cam. His first road playoff game, against the defending champs and #1 defense, throwing to 3 rookies and being protected by 3 rookies, and getting crucified for making a couple bad throws/reads? Funny how when Rodgers and Peyton looked useless against this defense it was "just a bad game" but in Cam's case its because hes not a great QB and he'll never be a pure passer

Well...  I wouldn't even compare Peyton to Cam's situation..          Peyton had Edgerrin James averaging around 1200-1500 total yards a season back then.. plus Harrison and Wayne.

 

 

Colts were great at keeping quality talent surrounding Peyton.

 

 

Panthers give Cam an aging,  injury prone Double Trouble,  1 rookie #1 WR... two rookie guards,  the worst LT in the NFL,  a RT that no other team wanted  and the almighty Cotchery.

I was impressed by Cam today. You saw him handle some difficult things well today. Our offensive personnel is a station wagon trying to keep up with a Ferrari. Our GPS hasn't been updated since 1999. 

 

Think about it. With the game on the line, in the redzone, Cam's first read was Brenton Bersin. That should get people fired. 

 

None of his turnovers stood out to me as boneheaded, all of them were small mistakes that were punished mercilessly.

can we not compare cam to every single quarterback. it gets old

 

This wasn't meant to be so much a comparison as it is a statement about the development of QBs and their progressions to becoming better QBs.

 

The only point is that Manning was a better QB in his 30's than he was his first 6 years in the league (as is true for most QBs).  There is no reason to believe that Cam will be any different.

 

So the hyper reaction by some to every bad game, or playoff failures and successes, is dumb at this stage and we shouldn't always dwell on the week to week happenings of a 25 year old QB. 

 

The guy's future is incredibly bright, and therefore so is the future of this franchise

Great thread and I totally agree. People want to define Cam so early as a failure or will never get better. It's ridiculous. QB's need time to grow, and this offense is hardly even close to being a legit offense that people can say that Cam is holding it back or something.

excellent thread and pretty much sums up the sentiment that SHOULD be floating around this board. we've got flaws to correct and a ways to go, but if some of you slobber-chinned knuckle-dragging screaming banshees around here had it your way peyton manning would've been "not the answer" because reasons and cut in 2002.

 

let's focus on hopefully getting in a coaching staff that won't draw up third-down passes to branson barton as the surefire game-winner.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
