Blinded by Manning's greatness....hardly. Sickened by Manning's arrogance....very.
Brees shoulda, woulda, coulda been intercepted, but he wasn't and he won the game.
I don't have to say anything further, this was Peyton's chance and he blew it. Love it, maybe it will shut up the Manning jock riders for awhile.
The Bears defense in 06 was real good and yet with the terrible conditions Manning still had a good game. I am not saying he won on his own, football teams do. The Colts play the Saints, not Peyton Manning. Also you proof my point with "would of, could of". Think about it, Peyton made a bad read and now he is the worst QB of all time, sure ok. But Drees made mistakes as well but got away with it but what does that make him better? I am saying Peyton is good and even with that interception he still has a 92 QB rating. Great performance, most football teams win games if their QB has a rating like that. These are things many people don't take into consideration, you need to play football to appriciate/understand it. Highlights and ESPN don't tell the whole story.

Just to name a few, dan marino, john elway...
Peyton Manning is the greatest REGULAR SEASON quarterback of all time...but when the game is on the line i'm not calling on him to be my qb...i would rather take .500 record regular season everyear and win the superbowl.
Oh and i'm a bears fan and the colts didn't beat the bears in super xli...the bears beat themselves aka turnovers and just bad play calling in general.
when manning threw that pick i was so relieved but now he knows how rex felt when he threw that pick in the 4th quarter for a pick six.
Joe Montana is the perfect case of "right place at the right time". I feel he is a good QB but every one puts him on this pedastal because the 49ers won 4 Super Bowls. Qbs don't win games, teams do. Having 8 probowlers per season definitly helped Montana, not to mention 3 or 4 Hall of Famers. He didn't need to make plays, his stats are weak and that has all to do with the talent around him. Because he didn't need to score those extra TDs. I think Montana is VERY over rated. I put Montana in the top 5
Brady is a guy who I feel is a stud and what I saw out of him is nothing but awesome. Prior to the 2008 season I had him in the top three but Matt Cassel really made me rethink Brady's position. Matt Cassel didn't start 1 game in college or the pros prior to Tom Brady getting hurt. He was the 230th pick in the 7th round (similar to Brady) and yet his first season as a starting QB he pulls out a Pro Bowl esk type season. I find that fishy. Yes Brady has won Super Bowls but that "Greatest Defense of the Decade" tag given to the Patriots take away from his acomplishments. So what are the odds of the Patriots Drafting two QBs in the 7th round and have them be great stand outs? Something tells me I could play quarter back for the Patriots (exageration). I removed Brady from my top ten.
Terry Bradshaw in the top 3 QBs ever is rediculous. The only thing going for him is the Steelers Super Bowl wins and even then he barely contributed in the playoffs. His career was mediocure at best but I have to say he was potent in the Super bowl but with out that team he wouldn't have a job after 1973. With all that said, he does not belong on the top 3 list. Maybe top 10... maybe.
