After that game, Denver started concentrating on the run a lot more and it was frustrating to watch, but they were still winning mostly. Still felt they were the better team and were gonna pull out the win.

This team today just feels snake-bitten. Anderson is the only bright spot. Peyton's been bad, D's been ineffective.

This is exactly what I expected from the Broncos in the playoffs. They may somehow win today, but doesn't look likely. Save them from thrashing in NE next week.

Sad game by Peyton and the Broncos! At least baseball season and the O&W game are not all that long away.

You are correct. He's great but he will always be known as being a huge choke in the playoffs. Tom Brady is a better QB.

To me it's pointless to even debate which one is better. They're both going down as all time greats, and everyone should just leave it at that.

It's kind of a joke to use these later years against him. He can't even throw.

Nobody on the Broncos is getting open. Nobody is making catches in traffic. He can't make plays with his legs. What can he do? He Missed like 5 throws in this game, but so did Luck. I wouldn't call this a Manning choke job. He's trying to manage a team to a championship and his team just isn't good enough.

I think Manning just doesn't have the physical ability to maintain his level of play for an entire season. Teams have figured out the deep ball isn't a threat so as long they get physical on the short stuff they can pretty much stymie him.

He may have one more season left but unless the running game become message the strength of the team I doubt they challenge for another Super Bowl.

It's sad. Peyton is the only reason I watch the NFL.

LULZ, Sanders was open on fade routes all game.

Peyton is awesome. Maybe the greatest. This game was on him. It's not even a choke job he just can't physically do it anymore.

Same here hopefully the Falcons can take up the slack from the Broncos to keep me interested.

I don't think I watched the same game, and no one tries to call Luck the best ever ha

He did not choke, got beat by a better team. Peyton has been beat up for a lot of the season he is old. Our dbs challenged and beat up the bronco receivers all day

I think unless Peyton aggravated the nerve injury to his neck or arm at some point during season, then he's been hiding some other injury the second half of season on through to today. It's not like he got old or lost all his talent halfway through the year.

He hasn't played this poorly all season. Again, unless it's the nerve issue, I think he can come back next year.

Elway was 37 when he made the helicopter run. Manning couldn't run for a wide open 5 yard first down. He's just not the same competitor. Sad showing.
