| I thought Manning was done choking...
Before anyone says it...I know it was a team effort...
Untimely turnovers and the Colts D letting the 2nd string QB who had never played in a post season game go right down the field defintely sucked...
BUT...
Manning had two chances to show he's done choking on those last two drives...
Those two drives were the kind that define a clutch QB...
Proof once again that Manning is brilliant when it doesn't matter and average when it does

Now, Peyton will be 32 next year do you think he is going to get anymore chances at another ring? | |

His LT got blown up by Merriman, Clark dropped a ball that hit both hands... both INTs were from tipped balls. Again, it's more than just Manning... the Colts went from great to average with Harrison's fumble. It honestly just looked like the Charger's wanted it more. | |

Otherwise...he might be this generatiiosn Dan Marino...
But he did get it so that is that...
It's funny...last year I breathed a sigh of relief that Manning finally won it all and he didn't have to answer those questions anymore....I swore I was done being frustrating and that the SuperBowl win was a load off of my shoulders for his sake ...
But here I am...mad about the same stuff again...

Good call, blame it on Peyton. | |

Well, the QB takes the fall win or loss. | |

| If I were Manning I would choke too. I mean all that money that surrounds me would just suffocate me. Get real. The Colts D lost this for them today not Manning.
