Re: Manning stats without Harrison vs Brady
[ QUOTE ]
it is weird - the cast he had in the NE game was pretty similar to this week. (besides the oline). but subjectively he did look a whole lot worse.
it just means he's human, that's all

Can't forget no Freeney on D. Law gives Peyton the "jimmys" and Clark isn't anywhere near 100%. O-line is huge though. Imagine Brady without his o-line where he never gets touched and can just step up. He looks invincible right now. Also KC has a good pass D, actually one of the best in the league.
I just find it funny that he has a couple bad game stretch, albeit 1 game against an instoppable team and the other against a team where Madden has his worst half ever and almost won the game. Then he come sinto this game, he does play mediocre but still he isn't overall a mediocre QB b/c of a bad 3 game stretch. I'm pretty sure we can find many 3 game stretches in Brady's career where he is comparably bad.
Peyton wasn't particularly good last year in the playoffs vs KC either. Yes 30-38, but 3 picks to 1 TD. He used Clark tremendously with 9 catches for 10 yards. Marvin and Wayve combined for only 88 yards between the two. Addai was much worse on Sunday than last year. Probally has something to do with the o-line.
