Ive thought about it and honestly think the smartest QBs would make great defensive QBs. The amount of film they study and their ability to identify tendencies would potentially be a scary combination. I don't know if there's any evidence of this but i thought about it after watching Romo predict plays regularly before they happen.

I'm a Ravens fan, and my favorite Manning story, and the one that showed me who the greatest was between Manning and Brady happened during the Raven's last superbowl run. Ray had announced at the start of the playoffs that he was retiring at the end of the season. When the Ravens beat the Patriots in the playoffs, Tom Brady pouted and ran off the field without shaking anybody's hand. When the Ravens went into Denver and beat them with the Mile High Miracle, an absolutely crushing way to lose, Peyton gathered up his family and waited outside the Raven's locker room for 2 hours just to be able to talk to Ray and thank him for the great competition over the years. Think about that. You just get beat in the playoffs as you are getting towards the end of your career and that might have been your last shot. You get beat in miraculous fashion by a play that had nothing to do with you. Your season is now over and while everybody on your team is completely bummed out, you sit outside the winning team's locker room listening to them celebrating for 2 whole hours just to show respect to one of your greatest opponents who you will no longer be able to play against. Pure class. The GOAT forever in my opinion after that. It's not just about super bowl rings and records. There is another part of it that makes you the greatest.

@@Silent_Hybrid Yeah...that was kind of the point, Sherlock. Because modern defense is so soft, guys get to throw to more wide open receivers. So hard workers like Manning and Brady develop great rapport with their guys, from spending so much time together in practice. Thus, when you get to the actual game, they could make many of those throws blind-folded. BUT THAT'S NOT FOOTBALL!!! Back when they played actual defense, qbs had to have some instincts and tenacity and toughness. When you play football against actual coverage, you may have to wait for a guy to get open. Or you may have to gamble on a throw where the guy doesn't have the separation you'd prefer. All that means that, first, you're going to get hit a lot more often, because you can't always get rid of the ball right away. And second, your stats won't look nearly as pristine. Nobody completes 75% of his passes when he's playing against a real defense. And these things still apply, when the defense plays well. It's just that today's defenses generally can't shut people down like the old ones, because the rules make it much harder. For instance, when Brady missed out on his undefeated season, the Giants played one of the greatest defensive games in history. But I PROMISE you, if it was best out of 7, like baseball or basketball, there's no WAY they could have done that more than once. The Patriots would have won easily, probably 4-1. Same with New England, when they got their first ring, against the Rams...you could see how tired they were by the fourth quarter of that game. Their defense was dead on its' feet. In a series, they'd have lost. But for ONE GAME...they had enough. Barely. Brady, Manning, Brees....they made their name in this modern league with stats, coasting on easy rules. None of them would have made it in the 70's or 80's, or MOST of the 90's...

That 41-0 loss to the Jets not only was the Colts' last shutout playoff loss, it lit a fire in Peyton. He dedicated himself to studying the D on every team he faced, just to find that one weakness and use it against them. The zone blitz worked twice against him, just like the Giants and Eagles with their pressure front line. The Seahawks even got to him with the Legion of Boom. It's why Belichick and Brady were there for his Hall of Fame induction, because Peyton didn't quit against the Patriots. Just watch his comeback against the Bucs from 10 years ago. Not even the best D in the league stopped him, just slowed him down for a few minutes.

Peyton was an incredible orchestrator. I got to see his iconic naked bootleg against the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Arlington his last year. It’s a shame he didn’t have the legendary defenses that Brady had… Brady has way more rings than everybody, but there were multiple Super Bowl runs where he had fewer than 5 touchdown passes in the entirety of the playoffs. Sure, touchdown passes aren’t everything, but Brady gets way more credit for most of those Super Bowl rings than he probably deserves. At least a couple of them came when his team didn’t have a lead until after time expired as the kicker put the ball through the uprights. Except for the seasons with Von Miller in Denver, Peyton usually had to not only overcome his opponents, but also the porosity of his own team’s Defense.

Top ten, but not even close to top three. Not enough grit, not enough championships. One of his rings was won in spite of him. In the lower half of the top ten for sure. Even in his generation he is far outranked by both Brady and Rodgers, whose stats weren't padded by playing in a dome. Manning is closer to Brees than he is Brady or Rodgers, the other great dome quarterback of the 2000s and 2010s.

He’s the best QB ever. Brady is the best winner. Brady had better teams, more complete teams, but Manning was JUST better. It’s great to hear people talk of their rivalry without speaking of the actual teams.
If Peyton played in his prime right now, hed tear the league up. The guy broke the touchdown record twice, once with a noodle arm that still holds the record for single season passing TDs and yards, despite there being 17 games now. His brain would embarrass todays league and with the increased penalties to defense hed pick teams apart. Man i miss this guy. Thats how you dominate a position!

I'm a Ravens fan, and my favorite Manning story, and the one that showed me who the greatest was between Manning and Brady happened during the Raven's last superbowl run. Ray had announced at the start of the playoffs that he was retiring at the end of the season. When the Ravens beat the Patriots in the playoffs, Tom Brady pouted and ran off the field without shaking anybody's hand. When the Ravens went into Denver and beat them with the Mile High Miracle, an absolutely crushing way to lose, Peyton gathered up his family and waited outside the Raven's locker room for 2 hours just to be able to talk to Ray and thank him for the great competition over the years. Think about that. You just get beat in the playoffs as you are getting towards the end of your career and that might have been your last shot. You get beat in miraculous fashion by a play that had nothing to do with you. Your season is now over and while everybody on your team is completely bummed out, you sit outside the winning team's locker room listening to them celebrating for 2 whole hours just to show respect to one of your greatest opponents who you will no longer be able to play against. Pure class. The GOAT forever in my opinion after that. It's not just about super bowl rings and records. There is another part of it that makes you the greatest.

@@Silent_Hybrid Yeah...that was kind of the point, Sherlock. Because modern defense is so soft, guys get to throw to more wide open receivers. So hard workers like Manning and Brady develop great rapport with their guys, from spending so much time together in practice. Thus, when you get to the actual game, they could make many of those throws blind-folded. BUT THAT'S NOT FOOTBALL!!! Back when they played actual defense, qbs had to have some instincts and tenacity and toughness. When you play football against actual coverage, you may have to wait for a guy to get open. Or you may have to gamble on a throw where the guy doesn't have the separation you'd prefer. All that means that, first, you're going to get hit a lot more often, because you can't always get rid of the ball right away. And second, your stats won't look nearly as pristine. Nobody completes 75% of his passes when he's playing against a real defense. And these things still apply, when the defense plays well. It's just that today's defenses generally can't shut people down like the old ones, because the rules make it much harder. For instance, when Brady missed out on his undefeated season, the Giants played one of the greatest defensive games in history. But I PROMISE you, if it was best out of 7, like baseball or basketball, there's no WAY they could have done that more than once. The Patriots would have won easily, probably 4-1. Same with New England, when they got their first ring, against the Rams...you could see how tired they were by the fourth quarter of that game. Their defense was dead on its' feet. In a series, they'd have lost. But for ONE GAME...they had enough. Barely. Brady, Manning, Brees....they made their name in this modern league with stats, coasting on easy rules. None of them would have made it in the 70's or 80's, or MOST of the 90's...
Thank you for this. Stating the year he went to college and other occasions would have made it the video even better.

Brady can go out there throw 2 tds to 3 ints against the Chargers and the Pats could still win by 2 scores. Peyton could play the same chargers throw 3 tds to 2 ints and lose to a last minute smashmouth drive by the chargers who lost their probowl QB and mvp calibre RB during the game.

I remember his 2013 season and it’s crazy to see him In the Super Bowl completely choke
He was always my favorite player, granted some playoff games that hurt but he really changed how QBs were playing. Thanks to Tom, Peyton has 2 SBs out of 4 and probably would of made at least 2 or 3 more if it wasn't for Tom lol
Indiana born and raised and it was so cool to get a once in a lifetime quarterback for your home team. Peyton was great.
He went out a champion despite it all, poetic.
Life long colts fan here, Payton made me fall in love with the game. He’s definitely my goat
That story was just legendary. Peyton is truly one of the goats💯

I highly respect Peyton's mentality, even with all the playoff struggles.

Crazy how our brains work. His first couple playoff embrassments probably stuck around in the back of his head during every playoff game after until it became a repeating pattern. It's hard to mentally shake things like that, but he did eventually the second half of his career
Peyton Manning will always be my favorite QB of all time.
I grew up with the Baltimore Colts with my Dad, when they left Baltimore and became the Indy Colts we began to enjoy Football once again. Once again I purchased so many Colt Collections. When Peyton left I was finished with the Colts!! Peyton was a true player who enjoyed playing football!!!
I went back and watched a couple games from 2006 -09 and this dude was the best QB I have ever seen.

I grew up in BFE Indiana, and come sundays you could guarantee the town would be quiet bc everyone was watching Peyton perform at nearly an artistic level of play that none of us had ever seen before, certainly not coming from the Blue Horseshoe. I remember when he moved to Denver and even after his first great season their people said it would be a fluke and he couldn’t physically sustain to do it again, then in the first game he played I was down big with Peyton to play in fantasy and he put up the biggest numbers I’ve ever seen in a football game. It was like playing your little brother in Madden, he was just torching the defense with no let up at all. Truly the greatest player I’ve ever had the privilege to witness orchestrate an offense. Truly a savant under center.

The house Manning built. That standing ovation he got when he came back to Indy as a Bronco tells it all. Ive been watching the Colts since George, Chandler, Harbaugh, etc, just waiting, hoping for the Colts to become what Manning made them. That was the pinnacle. I had high hopes for Luck but those were short lived. Nowadays, It's hard to watch the Colts anymore.

Minor nitpick: the two TDs to Daniels that were shown in the "2013 AFC champ game" were actually in 2015. Great video. As a pats fan, I thoroughly enjoyed the rivalry he brought and the incredible knowledge he has of the game
Speechless was right about that first jets playoff game I remember we went to champps and got there early as hell to get a table so excited and then we laid that epic egg

In 2001 at the tinder age of 11 marvelous Marvin Harrison came to my elementary school in phila. I then decided to follow his team and make them my squad. Peyton manning was like a football Dad to me. Andrew luck was like our brother. I miss the good old Star Wars days knowing we were super bowl contenders.
Peyton was in a league with Brady and it fun watching those two play each other. I wish Peyton would try coaching just to see how good of a coach he would be.
Shoelace tackle by Ben is the best highlight of that colts game
I'm no Payton fan. But I give credit to a hof player. He is a true coach on the field. He can read defense and make changes. He was more fun watching him scramble. Have you seen him run. Well. At least he can throw. True legend.

Being a Dolphins fan living in south Florida I didn't really watch a lot of colts games after they were moved out of the AFC east but i do remember when Peyton was really rolling and we hosted them in Miami with a very stout defense with two shutdown corners where we always played tight bump and run coverage, but for that game Jimmy Johnson said not against Peyton and we completely altered our defense to play zone and protect our CB's. To me that was the ultimate respect for a QB that Jimmy viewed as the best he had seen.

He was nowhere near being the goat. And the Sheriff is just about the dumbest nickname of all time. When you hear the term 'sheriff', you picture a strong, silent, traditional guy, like James Arness...NOT a prissy, soft guy like Manning who never shuts up.
That 41-0 loss to the Jets not only was the Colts' last shutout playoff loss, it lit a fire in Peyton. He dedicated himself to studying the D on every team he faced, just to find that one weakness and use it against them. The zone blitz worked twice against him, just like the Giants and Eagles with their pressure front line. The Seahawks even got to him with the Legion of Boom. It's why Belichick and Brady were there for his Hall of Fame induction, because Peyton didn't quit against the Patriots. Just watch his comeback against the Bucs from 10 years ago. Not even the best D in the league stopped him, just slowed him down for a few minutes.

Brady tossed 4 TD's against Seattle's #1 defense the next year in the SB .. I believe it was the first time a QB threw 4 TD's against Seattle's "D" in 5 years - He was also clutch - 10 point comeback against Seattle in the 4th was the biggest 4th quarter comeback in SB history until Brady topped that against Atlanta in the SB

As a Steelers fan I respect the hell out of Peyton Manning. Peyton & Big Ben had some duels over the years for sure.
my father is the biggest Denver Bronco fan you could imagine. A signed Denver Bronco helmet from John Elway in his office, flags and pendants everywhere, the whole 9 yards. and I've never seen him more happy than when Peyton Manning led us to a Super bowl win. it was ages since Denver last won a super bowl, and my father thought he'd never see them in a Super bowl again. and the childlike happiness that I saw come out of him that night when Peyton threw the 2 point conversion to seal a Super Bowl win, I've never seen it again to this day. Peyton Manning took my dad back to being a kid watching football, and to see my dad that happy was incredible. Thank You Peyton for all you've done
It's amazing what you can accomplish with a good defense
Spectacular football hero….I’m from Indianapolis and this guy was the absolute truth. That comeback against the Bucs will forever be etched in my mind as his “bitch I’m the man” game. Really wish we could have mopped Tom and the Pats…they were his cryptonite. But hey, the GOAT is the GOAT. Eli got his ass tho!
Loved watching the Manning era Colts. He was different.
It's wild that with just a few plays breaking differently here and there, the Mount Rushmore of my childhood quarterbacks-Peyton, Brees, Brady, and Rodgers-could each have had 3 or 4 rings. Of the four, though, Manning always seemed to have the best head for the game and, for most of his career, the ability to completely take over a game when the stakes were high. A true legend of the game in all respects.

The TRUE GOAT!! 🐐💯💪
Peyton was an incredible orchestrator. I got to see his iconic naked bootleg against the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Arlington his last year. It’s a shame he didn’t have the legendary defenses that Brady had… Brady has way more rings than everybody, but there were multiple Super Bowl runs where he had fewer than 5 touchdown passes in the entirety of the playoffs. Sure, touchdown passes aren’t everything, but Brady gets way more credit for most of those Super Bowl rings than he probably deserves. At least a couple of them came when his team didn’t have a lead until after time expired as the kicker put the ball through the uprights. Except for the seasons with Von Miller in Denver, Peyton usually had to not only overcome his opponents, but also the porosity of his own team’s Defense.
There was a memorable late night David Letterman episode on CBS-TV [US] where Peyton was a guest. In the course of that interview, it was remarkable to hear about Peyton's road to recovery after the neck fusion surgery, as the nerves had atrophied to the point that he had no awareness of his arm when positioned behind his head. Peyton told Letterman, of his recovery process, that he had to use the reflection of a wall mirror to get a visible gauge of sense where his arm was positioned when simulating a QB ball throw.
Peyton is a great Qb and always was able to be brought up in the GOAT conversation
I remember where I was when I learned Manning signed with the Broncos. I remember who it was that told me. I remember the exact words he said, I even remember what time it was. I haven't missed a Bronco game in 47 years, and I remember most two things: when Elway signed and when Manning signed. God is good.
