I feel for the Denver D. Last year they got no credit due to Tebowmania. This year they get no credit because of peymeaton. Let him have his regular season MVPS. Last time an MVP won a SB was 1999 with Kurt Warner.

Colts winning only 2 games without PM was more about their inept GM and HC not their starter. Same as with the Pats winning 11 games in 08 was more about their coaching staff than their starter.

Bucs are a team I enjoy watching along with Cincy, SF and Houston. I think they will be contenders for awhile.

Let’s see, they both missed one season, Brady’s team won 11 games without him Mannings won 2.
Nice try bro.

Thank you for making my point. The MVP is the player who means the most to their team, and is missed the most when out.
Consider yourself educated…..bro.

Tom Brady is the MVP. He has been the MVP for the last 10 years. It is undeniable. Peyton can have Come Back Player of The Year, but not the MVP. However, the Manning Media Machine will certainly be lobbying hard for MVP, and he always gets the sympathy vote. So, you never know.

@brutus idk if you are a Bucs fan or not but if you are you should be pretty happy now. I like how Schiano coaches, going after the ball in the victory formation shows he didn’t want to give up and signing Legrand was a very classy move. I think he will take that team far, just needs to strengthen the D like I said before.

With all this being said I’m glad my Broncos won haha.

lanman, I would never down talk Brady. He’s a future first ballot HOF and has won Super Bowls.
But this year Manning is the clear MVP. Mythical sympathy vote withstanding, the Broncos are where they’re at mostly because of Manning. As great as he is, I’m not certain Brady will even finish in the top three in this years MVP.

Brady is an amazing player, but he’s also been around better talent than Manning. Just look at the thorough whipping Peyton received when he played those Pats’ teams in 2003 and 2004. Those teams had vicious defenses.

Plus, Bill Belichick is a better coach than Dungy ever was.

Ianman11 get your facts right before you post! Manning has 4 MVP Awards.
Brady 2.

@seabronco Aqib was a cancer and had way too many chances and Leonard Johnson will get better in time and yes the Bucs will be a great team in the years to come to think last year I was looking forward to this game with Tebow as Denves Qb

I understand and what you said makes perfect sense, but it seemed that Peyton wanted all the attention on him and did not want to share the spotlight.

By: beauregard

beauregard — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 01:58:14 +0000

Edith, the decision to move on without Tebow was made before the season, before we knew what Peyton was going to do. If Peyton has struggled you would of had a QB controversy. I know it seems very silly to say that now, with Peyton the front runner for MVP, but at the time there were a lot of unknowns. Peyton knew of the rabid fan base that Tebow had and didn’t want the distractions.
In the end Peyton was quite correct.

there is no reason to be rude and unkind and insulting. I think Peyton is doing great and brought Denver far. I just said Peyton should not have said he did not want Tebow as backup.

The Bucs held their own against a Peyton Manning led team that most people were expecting to blow them out of Mile High today! The Bucs found a way to stay in the game and I hope these two teams will meet again next year and Peyton Manning is still the QB. We might see a different outcome.

@edith, if you think the Broncos should have kept Tebow as a backup, then you don’t know football.

rs102: the difference is Manning put his yards up in the third quarter, Freeman piled his up in garbage time when the Broncos were playing prevent. Now I take nothing away from Freeman overall, I think he’s a great young QB, but he struggled today, especially in the first 24 minutes of the second half.

That win by Denver and the Atlanta defeat of the Aints clinched the nfc south for the falcons. Now we need to win out and get #1 seed, and forget all the comments about losing in the playoffs. That is history, this is a new year, new team and they are going to win. Go ahead and take your jabs, bottom line is 11-1.
What’s your team record, has your team been to the playoffs 3 out of 4 years?

edithpiaf51 — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 00:54:13 +0000

I have to admit Peyton Manning has made a difference for the Broncos. my fear is if he will perform as well in the playoffs. He has brought consistenty to the franchise. I still think it was not nice what he said about not wanting Tebow as a backup, and I think the Broncos should have kept Tebow as a backup. However, again Peyton has made a huge difference, resulting in a clinching of the AFC West division.

By: rs102

rs102 — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 00:53:48 +0000

Freeman passed for 242 yards (same as Manning) and 2 TDs. That equals being shut down? Congrats Broncos on clinching the AFC West.

@brutusmandingdong shoulda woulda coulda. If the bucs didn’t believe in that cb then maybe they wouldn’t have traded talib? Many games this year have come down to just a few plays, it’s about who takes care of business and comes out on top.
With that being said, I think Tampa is a good team and they will get better in the coming years, just need to strengthen the D this offseason. Every Tampa game I have watched was a high scoring shoot out.

Yea if the Bucs had all their players healthy and weren’t playing a rookie corner they would’ve beaten the Broncos and if Josh didn’t throw that pick 6 smh but overall and fearless effort fought to the end

Peyton wins in the regular season but can’t get it done when it matters. 9-10. Truth hurts.
