Tasker Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Quick observations before half: 49ers are trying to make the Bills feel good about their Bears loss, down 34-0 in the first half to a Chicago team that has the 72 Dolphins very uncomfortable. Leinart was 1/9 for 12 yards when I started typing this. He just completed five passes in a row, but is still 6/14 and down 21-0 to Green Bay. I'd rather have Cutler than Leinart, but I'd rather have Whitner + JP than either of them and am happy with our #8 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Donahoe Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I like his work ethic... It's admirable, certainly, but many other QBs also have great work ethics, and put more work into winning than they do improving their own statistics. I like how he is the only QB in the league to call his own plays... You don't actually believe that, do you? He's really just the only QB to flap his arms wildly while calling his own plays. I like how he can make his teammates better... Better at what? Accumulating statistics, or winning important games? and he has been my I guess "idol" (for lack of a better word) since his 2nd year.

Thats why I said I didnt want to debate it. Peyton being the only QB who calls his own plays: Prior to Peyton Manning, the last quarterback to call his own plays in this manner was the Buffalo Bills' Jim Kelly, who ran the "K-Gun", no-huddle offense during their Super Bowl heyday. -Answer.com Have you ever seen a better argument for Tuesday Morning Quarterback's longstanding contention that many NFL quarterbacks should call their own plays? Jim Kelly was the last NFL quarterback to call his own plays on a regular basis, and that worked out pretty well as you may recall. In the last decade, playcalling by quarterbacks has become almost unknown. Peyton Manning has authority to call plays at the line, which seems to work out pretty well. - NFL.com he )tom brady) does not call his own plays. Peyton Manning does. (The first quarterback since, I believe, Jim Kelly to do so.) -SenorCafe Turns out the Indianapolis Colts quarterback may call more of his own plays than any other quarterback in the NFL - Florida Today Quarterbacks who call their own plays have become an endangered species. Jim Kelly did it in Buffalo. Peyton Manning still does it in Indianapolis. But the game has gotten to the point where most teams script plays and stick to a regimented plan put together by a group of coaches, with the coordinator responsible for creating a rhythm to the attack -SunTimes But anyway. Im not going to argue this. Ive done it so many times before and its ridiculous. I like Peyton Manning a lot and you guys dont. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I agree with some, Sunday without the Bills is not the same. I spent the day finishing my master bedroom/bathroom renovation and watching snippets of the games in between. I did catch the final 4-5 minutes of the Colts/Broncs game. Basically, without the Bills, Sunday becomes just another day to get crap done. I alao agree with some, Peyton is a great QB. He's definitely one of the best - of all time, not just today. Anyone that doesn't think so is just confused. I've liked him since day one in the league and he continues to impress. Hopefully, the Colts win the Superbowl this year. Not only will it occur in a year when the Bills have zero shot of even making the playoffs, but perhaps it'll quiet some of the anti-Peytonites (although I doubt it).

Thats a great post-season QB. A great QB to me means one who consistantly gets his team to the playoffs, can win a game singlehandidly if he needs to, be the leader of the team, and if they want break or set a few records (optional of course). Peyton does all of that. YES, he has not won a Super Bowl yet. BUT. He does consistantly get his team to the playoffs. He can and DOES singlehandidly win many games for them. He IS the leader of that team, and he spends countless hours studying for each opponent. I think his work ethic is un-matched by any other in the league. He is pretty much RIGHT NOW a 1st ballot HOF'er in my opinion. Im still trying to get over the fact that Hollywood Donahoe thinks that a ton of other QB's call their own plays. Im sorry, but when 15 different sources (most credible, NFl.com, Cbs Sportsline, and other outlets, it really takes someone special to disagree with them. Someone who has a vendetta against disliking a player. Oh ... like Hollywood Donahoe against Manning ... will do whatever they can to refute and put down the player. Hint, Hint ... Charlie Weiss called the plays in NE. If Manning does win a SB sometime during his career, the rest of the world will be calling him one of the best 3 (if not THE best) of all time and the minority of Manning-haters will make up some ridiculous excuse. Manning has been in the league for 8 years ... He has been in the top 10 of completions EVER YEAR of his career He has been in the top 10 of passing yards EVERY year of his career He has been in the top 10 of passing TD's EVERY year of his career ALL TIME LIST: (provided Pro football ref) Pass attempts: 21 Completions: 12 Passing yards: 14 Passing TDs: 10 For all of the Bills fans ... Peyton has passed Jim Kelly in TD's and will pass him in total passing yards in about 2 games (not that any of that really matters). Not to mention he is extremely durable. Partially thanks to a good offensive line and partially thanks to a good release. He is pretty tough though also ... he has taken some hard hits. In Marino's first 8 years, he missed 9 games. Peyton has missed 0. Of course everything I posted above doesnt matter to fans like Hollywood Donahoe, because until he wins the SB he is just an average QB ...

I might add though, if winning a Super Bowl was the criteria for measuring greatness, no Bill would ever be in the HOF nor considered great. You'd think that posters on a Bills' board would appreciate that more than just about any one. The one thing I will say though is that Manning, much like Elway, exemplifies exactly what makes football so great - its a team sport. As great as Manning may be, he'll never win a Super Bowl until they get a great team around him. One player can only take a team so far. That's why I like football so much, and that's why building through free agency is rarely a sure way to get to the Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your entitled to your opinion. Personally I dont think Tom Brady is as good as Peyton Manning. Considering you said that SB's wont change anything, lets just look at some different things: ----- Peyton Manning is in the top 25 of NFL QB's (history of the game) for 4 different categories. Attempts, Completions, Yards, and TD's. Tom Brady is not in the top 50 of any category in passing. Here is my point. Brady is the most WINNINGEST QB in the leauge and probably of the past decade. No doubt in (I would *hope* anyone's mind). But (in my strong opinion) Peyton Manning is the best "pure" (without SB/playoffs in mind) QB in the league and one of the best of all time. Tom Brady's SB teams were a TEAM. Peyton Manning's teams are an OFFENSE. Peyton knows he will most likely have to outscore teams, just like he had to yesterday. Tom Brady had one of the best offensive minds of the past decade, Charlie Weiss. Peyton Manning (even though you dont want to believe it) calls his own plays .. and once in a while he will change his formation/play at the line if he sees something he doesnt like in the defense. Some of that arm stuff is just hoopla. But guess what ... that hoopla is effective. Something people havent seem to have noticed about Manning until this year is his ability to win close games. Vic Carucci just wrote an article on how when the game is on the line and the Colts are down with a minute left, he has no doubt that Peyton will lead them back to win. I guess my point is that I believe Peyton would have won all 3 SB's if he was on the Patriots those years also. Brady won the SB against St. Louis with 145 yard and 1 TD. Are you telling me Peyton wouldnt have done that and more? The win against Carolina was more impressive with 300+ yards, 3 TD's and 1 INT. Although they did just squeek out the victory. Then his last SB he had another decent performance with about 230 yards and 2 TD's. I think Peyton would have done the same thing in the same scenario with those Patriot times. To me Tom Brady sometimes has to rely on his special teams/defense to win games. Peyton has to win the game by himself (well the offense) in about 95% of the games they play. If you dont agree, then thats fine. Life goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore, they get in a corner and make erroneous statments. 820704[/snapback] I hear where you're coming from, but by the same token I also think the modern online/talk radio culture causes people to lump in games/seasons together as if they're all the same. A good example is Philly right now, where everyone wants to fire Andy Reid and cut McNabb. They got outplayed vs. the Jags & Saints - but to pretend like they weren't the victims of terrible luck vs. the Giants & Bucs or that the common denominator in all 4 of their losses is the same - it's dumb. Regarding Brady, you really have to separate 2001 from post 2001. I don't give him much credit for that season because it was the luckiest team ever and the offense did next to nothing the postseason and him winning the MVP of the Rams game is a joke. But what the guy has done since is pretty incredible, and I have a hard time buying this theory that his team was heads & shoulders better than the Colts in 03-04. The score of that 03 championship game was like 13-3 in the 4th Qtr despite a gazillion Manning interceptions and in the 04 game the Pats are playing with a butchered secondary featuring Troy Brown. I think putting the majority of the blame on the Colts defense for those games when offense was supposed to be their bread & butter is just silly.
