Surprised there's no thread on this
Not that it wasn't obvious but it is now confirmed he's retiring.
What are your thoughts on this man ?
I was lucky to see him play 3 different times. All 3 wins. Once at the Ralph beating us and twice at Denver beating Cleveland and this year's playoff win vs Pitt.
Amazing player. Made quarterbacking look easy. 2015 was sort of bittersweet. I'm happy he got to ride out winning the big game. But it was also painfully sad to see him play the way he played. He had nothing left in that game. I mean nothing.
But still. One of the greatest to ever do it. Certainly the best regular season QB of all time if you ask me. His post season record for sure is a bit of downer but as I have always said. Wins is not a quarterback statistic. For every one of those losses in which he wasn't as good as he was in the regular season you can find one where he was money and other factors lost the game. Its just not a fair stat for grading QB's.
Dude's also a quite funny dork on commercials. His SNL skits are also laugh-worthy
He also pretty much nailed his retirement speech. He was well prepared even for that one.
Best of luck to Manning. I expect him to be coaching soon and kicking ass at that too.
Omaha!
