Everyone likes to make a big deal about Manning’s playoff record. They love to point out that he is 5-6 in the playoffs blah, blah, blah.
I think Manning is a great QB. He has his moments of happy feet and he does not always realize that running the ball is better than passing but he is great none the less. He actually scares me more now that he seems to have learned to rely on his TE and RB in the passing game more than just throwing it to the WR. Still the stat that is most reassuring to me is that Manning is incredible against the Broncos and “average” verse everyone else in the playoffs.
Here are his playoff games:
