Peyton Manning, on the Kravitz and Eddie show on 1070 The Fan in Indianapolis, on whether the first pick in the 2009 draft should play as a rookie or observe. “WithMatthew Stafford, I think you throw him in there right away. I think he’s lucky, the fact that he’s coming in with a new coaching staff. That’s a big advantage because basically he’s just like all the other veterans as far as learning this new system, learning the way their new head coach is going to approach things, learning his philosophy … I’m waiting for somebody to break that NFL rookie record for interceptions I set back in ‘98. Hopefully Stafford will give it a good run. But I’ll say this, there’s no way I could have played as well as I did in my second year if I hadn’t played that first year.”
