is there any doubt that peyton manning is the goat now?

...I would still rather have Brady..

ya ok lol what planet are u on

[Fiz]

the scariest thing about manning is that every year he gets better.

he just needed an extra year to develop another corps of wide receivers to run his offense and now he's doing it all again.

Everyone used to take credit away from Manning because they said the talent around him was too good. Well I think now we can all see he makes everyone around him that much better. I don't think I've ever seen a more accurate passer, and I've certainly never seen someone run an offense the way he can. Most QB's get flustered fast if you start hitting them (Brady) but despite that fact Peyton was still performing all game long.

[Kicks]

The Goat? I thought being the Goat was a bad thing. As in the one who gets blamed for a loss.

That would be "scap-goat", to be blamed for something.

Manning is the closest QB I have seen to Unitas. Unitas called his own plays, the offensive coordinator was only a title back then. Manning has the right to call a different play and very often does. Not many QB's have the ability or power given to them. His touch is very good and smart.

The back to back Sacks he basically went down. Nothing there so Eat the sack and play for later. NYJ came out on fire and they didn't rattle him. Soon he was tearing NYJ up.

Regardless of whether he wins it or not. He is GOAT....Well next to Unitas.

One very important stat. Most wins in a Decade. Granted two extra game a year doesn't hurt the count.

Manning is so good that his HC and OC could stay home on gameday and it wouldnt' make a bit of difference to that Colts offense. What other QB can do that?

[blackcatgrowl]

Yeah, the Saints have a steep hill to climb. They won't be roughing up Payton like they did Favre. He'll burn them for 8 yards almost every time they bring a safety blitz.

Payton Manning is one of the best if not the best Qbs of all time. I am just glad he has finally been able to do well in the playoffs, I remember when Brady and the Pats just tore up Manning every year and people questioned him for not winning the big games. Now what can the haters say about him? if he wins in two weeks he will have two rings and he still has atleast three years left in him. With todays Rules protecting the quarterback he could play another ten years like Farve.

[G()AT]

I find this whole thread offensive.

[Lt Pinkerton]

There is no doubt, he is absolutely the greatest of all time. The awesome part is that he could easily play another 5-7 years at a high level. He probably finishes his career with three super bowl rings and six MVPs.

[RockyTopVol]

Arguably the "GOAT" right now, but yes, another SB victory would remove all question.

[CLTPanther]

He's the greatest of this generation at minimum.

[rmoneyg35]

I remember watching him play early in the season against the Titans and wow just watching the things he does before every play is amazing. I don't think any current quarterback can compare to him. Later on that night they talked how they dont really have an offensive cordinator that peyton pretty much does it all.

[Montsta]

I actually think that Peyton Manning's greatness hurts Marvin Harrison's HOF credentials. I mean, who the fug is Pierre Garcon? Anthony Gonzalez? Austin Collie? If you are a WR with decent physical attributes and even the slightest desire to get better, you will put up perennial probowl numbers with Peyton Manning throwing to you.

I don't mean to marginalize Harrison or Garcon or any of these other guys talent, but with Manning it seems like he never misses when you're open, and can thread the needle when you're covered.

Last night he hit One of his WR's the second the 1st-string DB left the game. He's very cerebral. I give tons of credit to Jeff Saturday too, because I think he's been with Manning pretty much his whole career, and he has to know everything Manning is doing at the line. That's a tough gig.
