Manning is also among the greatest of all time. And John Elway was in much worse shape at age 36 than Manning is, nobody got beat up more than Elway and Elway had some of his best years at the ages of 37 and 38.

QB's nowadays - especially pocket passers like Manning - can play at a high level into their 40's because of how the league protects the QB.

Elway had a MUCH MUCH better supporting cast at that time.

Despite the hate on the guy Favre could have been the toughest SOB to ever step foot on the football field. Do you really think Manning could handle at 30 what Favre did at 40?

Tap the brake a bit.... those Broncos' teams in Elway's final years were 10X better than what the Broncos have right now. The OL, RB, WR, TE and all around DEF were better. That's not to say this Broncos' team lacks talent, but keep it in perspective.

Yeah Elway had a top 5 OL, a top 2 TE, and a top 5 RB in NFL history. Nobody is arguing that. He was still beat all to hell and almost had to retire because of a bicep injury

Manning is a tough SOB. He played with that neck injury for 4 years and was making a run at Favre's consecutive games played record.

Exactly. He was good for an old brokedick, but "good for an old brokedick" =/= "great". He wasn't a difference maker.

VONDOOM will end Manning's career with an accidental dual power up pass rush in training camp.

I love how every year KC fan honestly believes his team is going to be bad-ass even though they are coming off a string of shit seasons.
Respect.
