  • If Peyton Manning wins the MVP the NFL will have reached a new low I would never have thought possible. His come back is in a division so bad that a good high school team could beat most of the teams. The teams that are real contenders to win the super bowl this year have handed him his A$$ on the field. He knew what he was doing taking the job in Denver, EASY pickings to at least get to the playoffs.
