Re: *******OFFICIAL Ravens vs Colts Thread*******
Earlier this year I got in a big debate about McNair in the "if you could replace one player on your team" thread when someone suggested they should take Manning if they could have any one player.
Imo this game only re-enforces my point. McNair is poised, taking what the defense gives him, and not making mistakes. Imo, he is a great QB.
Please note that I'm not bashing Manning...I think hes great too, but I'm more than happy with McNair.
A big part of the debate was the Ravens offensive philosophy...as you can see, they take the short passes sometimes on 3rd and 7 or 8 even if it doesn't result in a first down. Its simply a conservative system, and that wouldn't change even if they had Manning.
