re: #85 Quoth the raven, Covfefe.

Manning, as opposed to the majority of NFL quarterbacks, was given the autonomy to call audibles on the line, and he was good at it. Freakishly good. Yeah, he botched his fair share of calls, and it undoubtedly cost him some playoff wins he should have had, but he has two rings with two different teams and a claim as one of the greatest gunslingers of his era. I’d say he acquitted himself pretty damn well for all that.

I think Manning was hurt because he never got a great D around him. Brady had great defenses in his early career.
