They ranked Peyton Manning 4rth. Placing Ben Roethlisberger at No. 2 and Kurt Warner at No. 3 in front of him. Huh???!!!! Ben Roethlisberger is the 2nd Best Quarterback in the National Football League??!! The guy who threw just two more touchdown passes than interceptions. The man that completed fewer than 60% of his passes is better than Peyton Manning a 3 Time MVP. a 9 Time Pro Bowler, and the active leader in every major passing category including most yards thrown in the Postseason!! Ben is good but if Peyton Manning had his defense than he would have 3 superbowls AT LEAST. And Kurt Warner is better then Peyton Manning? Let's get something straight here. I like Kurt Warner. He's a Top 5 Quarterback hands down. But if he's better than Peyton Manning then America's economy is better then it was in the Roaring 20s. The only Quarterback who can even be in the same conversation as being as good as Peyton Manning, he's No. 1 on CHFF's list AGAIN, still has to prove that he's the same player that he was after two surgeries to repair a torn ACL and MCL. It took Carson Palmer half a season to return close to his 2005 form and it took Donovan Mcnabb a year to begin playing like the player he is today. CHFF's reasoning for placing Peyton at No. 4 was that he was the reason for the Colts playoff exits the last two seasons. What???!! Did they actually watch these games or did they just read up about in Jason Whitlock's playoff commentary the next day? Peyton carved up San Diego's secondary in both games, 402 yards and 3 touchdowns; 310 yards and 1 touchdown, yet he is the reason they lost? Last time I checked, a quarterback throwing for over 300 yards was a GOOD THING. Never mind the fact that in the first playoff game the Colts defense couldn't pressure either Rivers or Billy FREAKING Volek and that last year the Colts started inside their own 20 on 7 of their 11 drives including 5 such times that they had to start inside their own 10. It's hard to move the ball inside your own 10 yard line even when you have a great offense, much less one that couldn't run the ball all game long. Plus Peyton Manning never had a chance to see the ball in overtime. Once again CHFF uses their blind contempt of the Colts to make up ridiculous accusations towards players, using games they know absolutely nothing about as evidence to support their claims. If they did watch our last rwo playoff games against San Diego, then they would know that Peyton Manning isn't to balme for these losses but the Defense and Mike Scifres are.
