Peyton Manning : Warming the Bench

Monday, December 14th, 2009

After the Indianapolis Colts celebrated an impressive 28-16 victory over the Denver Broncos, there’s speculation that Peyton Manning, in line to receive the NFL MVP title, may be warming the bench until mid-January when the Colts will play their first playoff game.

MVP votes will be cast January 4th, and some are wondering if Manning’s name will remain top of mind, if he doesn’t keep a high profile on the playing field.   While Manning has led the Colts to an amazing 13-0 start, you can bet that other contenders for the MVP title will be scrambling a bit harder than Manning to keep their teams’ SuperBowl dreams in within reach.

For instance, Brett Favre is sure to spend the next few weeks focused on a leading the Vikings towards the SuperBowl.  And what of Drew Brees?  These two stand outs are sure to have plenty of playing time in the next month.  Manning and the Colts have a full dance card to get through as well, with a match up against Jacksonville just a few days from now.

So if Manning warms the bench, will this affect the Colts drive to the SuperBowl?  Will he hurt his chance at receiving his fourth MVP title?  Or will the Associated Press, who will be casting their votes in early January,  remember his name, even from the bench?

Peyton One of the Greatest

Sunday, November 8th, 2009

Some call Peyton Manning one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, but do you agree?  I mean yes, he’s a three time NFL MVP and greatness does run in the family with Dad, Archie Manning, and brother Eli Manning.  At just 33 years old, does he have another 5 years in him? Or if he is anything like Brett Favre, another 10 years?   Will he stay with the Colts?  Will he pull a Brett Favre and retire, comeback, retire, comeback?  With Favre the frontrunner for MVP of 2009, it will be interesting to see what homage, Manning gets at the end of 2009.  Is there room for more than one golden boy in the NFL?

Statistics speak for themselves and clearly Manning has an impressive record, as does current Viking’s sweetheart Favre.   So who is the NFL MVP title determined?  Does Manning deserve another MVP title, or will it go to Favre this year?

Who should be the 2009 MVP?
