...I recall that just a couple of years ago or so, there were people claiming that Eli Manning had a better career than Peyton, who was labeled as "a choker"...never could understand that line of thinking. ...and as he retires he leaves behind some incredible stats...these are all NFL records] NFL career passing touchdown record: 539 Most passing yards, career: 71,940 Single season touchdown record (2013): 55 Most passing yards, season (2013): 5,477 Most wins (including playoffs): 200 Most games throwing for 300+ yards: 93 Most passing touchdowns in a single game (tied, 2013): 7 Most games with a passing rating higher than 105: 97 Most games with a perfect passer rating of 158.3: 5 Most seasons with 350+ completions: 10 Most games completing 80-percent passing: 19 Most game-winning drives: 56 Most comeback wins: 45 Highest completion percentage in a postseason game with 450+ yards (2005): 81.8 Highest yards-per-game, season (2013): 342.31 Most games with 4+ touchdown passes: 25 Most seasons passing for 4,000+ yards: 14 Most consecutive seasons with 25+ touchdowns: 13 One of two quarterbacks to ever beat all 32 teams (along with Brett Favre) First quarterback to beat 31 franchises: 2007 Most Associated Press NFL MVP awards: 5 (2003, 2004, 2008, 2009, 2013)
I'm a big fan, just a shame that the idiot in New England will break a few of those records by the time he's done.
I hope the only thing that guy in Foxboro gets is a 'broken' leg...or a 'nervous breakdown' when his wife divorces him...
I believe Peyton is also the only QB to win a Super Bowl with two different teams. From what I've seen and heard from him all these years, he's a good man, well spoken, gregarious.....I like him. Glad he went out a "winner" in the big one.
