When he was in Indy what happened was that they would send in a package of plays (usually 3 plays with the same formation. 2 passes and a run) and Manning would then decide which of the three he would run at the LOS based on what the defense showed him pre-snap. The idea that Manning was just calling what he wanted at any given time like an old school QB is just wrong, but once a narrative is established nobody really cares about accuracy. |

What do you mean by 'they would consult'? They would send in packages and he'd pick a play from those packages at the LOS. That's how it worked the whole time Moore was there. I dunno about in Denver though. Why would they have ever huddled if he called every play at the LOS? |

So if Manning was calling everything how did he get the right personnel on the field? Like if he wants a play that requires a 22 package, how is he doing the subs?
Clearly someone on the side lines is calling the play to some degree, even if Manning had a lot of freedom to change things at the line. |
