They won 11 games (out of 12) by 7 or less points....2 in over-time. Manning had 4th quarter drives in at least four of them.
Just removing those comeback drives puts them at 8-8 last year....which had nothing to do with the defense.
Saddling a QB that has never made a start with the pressure of leading a SB defending team...Preseason is one thing, the games dont count... but wait until the critics and local media chime in when they start losing.
He faces his first real game plan on national TV against Carolina...and is going to be in a lot of tight ballgames. They arent going to get the shower of flags, late, like in the Patriots game either.
