PEYTON MANNING- OVERMAN:
"In what is undoubtedly the greatest display of human fortitude since Aron Ralston severed his forearm, Peyton Manning has overcome his MRI scans in order to continue to throw a football. Truly Peyton is god's incarnation of a quarterback, and we are certain that any possible miscalculations that the Broncos makes within the remainder of his tenure here are merely byproducts of the receiving core, offensive line, defense, running backs, special teams, and coaching staff not being able to fully comprehend Manning's omniscience. Whereas a prima donna QB like Tom Brady will yell at his teammates because of his sociopathic urge to divert blame, Manning is merely hoping that his comrades can ascend to the same realm of intellect that he currently resides in. You see, Peyton is no longer a mere football player, but a being that has transcended his mortal vessel to become the Ubermensch that Nietzsche had prophesied. Although the referees might try to impede the unstoppable charge of Manning, even they are unable to understand the quarterback's full cunning. Every play that Peyton calls is a symphony the likes of which we have never seen before, ever pass is equivalent to Zeus throwing bolts of lighting from the heavens, and even the interceptions are a mere masterclass on deception on Manning's part. By giving the opposition the ball and employing his skills as a master thespian in order to feign a face of discontent, he is luring them into a false sense of security so that he can unleash his true might and claim victory. The NFL would be wise to hand Manning the Lombardi trophy and ever other accolade possible, in order to spare the 31 other teams from the unstoppable force that is Peyton Manning."
You think I can get a job writing for them?
Its just eyewash. He is very calculated to throw out MRI so that the chiefs also have something else to think about. This a total belichickian move. If it was bad he wouldve come out of the game.
Also it helps boost his ratings "playing hurt".
Athlete To Get Routine Medical Test -- News at 11!
Papa Johns loves the publicity.
If the MRI turns up negative, $2.00 off all large Supremes.
The way he got tackled and went down, then hobbled off before coming back in, it reminded me me of Gronk's injury against the Ravens in the AFCCG, which turned out to be a high ankle sprain. If it is a high ankle sprain, quarterbacks have played through these after getting shot up. It is much more difficult for WRs or other positions to play though them. It would certainly affect Manning's game, although he isn't exactly mobile to begin with.
It's all very Big Ben like, especially the story he told the sports casters about how he felt like James Caan in Misery, lol whatever Picklehead.
I hope his leg falls off and lands on Welker's arm and breaks it.
Personally, I'm waiting for the day he throws Welker under the bus. That will be goodness on so many levels. :rocker:
Peyton Manning’s meticulous manipulation of opposing defenses doesn’t end at the sideline. Manning is always thinking multiple steps ahead, and the thinking in the wake of Sunday’s post-game disclosure of a looming MRI is that Manning is fine.
Basically, if Manning wasn’t fine he wouldn’t have said he’ll be getting an MRI.
Mentioning the MRI may have been directed at the officials who failed to flag Chargers defensive lineman Corey Liuget for hitting Manning low. It was clear that Manning wasn’t happy about that, for good reason.
Moving forward, it’s unclear whether the MRI will examine Manning’s right ankle or rights knee, but it will be a major surprise if the MRI finds any real damage. If Manning thought it would, he never would have uttered those three letters.
Then again, maybe I’m just engaged in wishful thinking, given that Manning is due to play in the next two NBC Sunday night games, against the Chiefs then the Patriots.
