MDFINFAN said:I noticed the word IF started your sentence, I asked would you be comfortable throwing a bomb behind last years OL or the ones before that for the last 2 years. My points was he hasn't had time..Manning, Warner, Collins would have fared no better last year, not behind what our OL did.
MDFINFAN said:Wouldn't have matter with BG, the OL in Denver going south, exposed BG, and he just did more of the same here with our inadequate OL..BG is just not that good unless he has a OL that can block well, he's a Kurt Warner type player. But if you have a good OL..just about any NFL QB can look like a star.
Ross said:Peyton wouldn't have added much because of our oline, not because he lacks ability. He can't throw the ball with a DE in his face 1.5 seconds after the snap. He's not a scrambling machine. He's at his best in the pocket. He wouldn't have had a pocket here. He had a better WR core, a great RB and a great oline and he still didn't get to a SB. No reason to think it would have been different here...

Finsflurry said:He never had a defense near as good as ours, all that stopped us were a few plays the past few seasons and Peyton would have delivered those plays unlike Jay...you act like every single play Jay had pressure and that is not realistic, maybe about 65% of the time but the times he had no pressure he couldn't take advantage of alot of them that a QB like Peyton would have... no doubt about it in my mind.
dol_fan_in_tamp said:so your basically saying koy detmer is better than fiedler? (you know since feely couldnt beat him out for the backup even after he played well like forever ago, and why didnt philly unload the older koy detmer instead?) and i am not comparing marino to fiedler. maybe marino's last two years, and i hate saying that but its true...marino is a god in my household and im still trying to convince my wife that daniel is a good baby name. Noone can be compared to danny
pigskinguy said:Although this has already been talked about here.......I guess it needs to be repeated again. DETMER WAS NOT THE FRIKKIN BACKUP IN PHILLY LAST YEAR, FEELEY WAS. Sorry for yelling but how many times do we need to go over the same thing.
In Peytons rookie year his line was pretty bad. He did throw some INTs and his rating was similar to Jay's. So, I guess you could say that with last year's OL a ROOKIE Peyton Manning wouldnt have made much difference. But, I dont see how anyone could think that today's Manning wouldnt have made a huge difference.Ross said:Peyton wouldn't have added much because of our oline, not because he lacks ability.

Finsflurry said:Wow I cannot believe you just said Manning wouldn't have fared any better...are you insane...Peyton Manning+Ricky Williams+Chris Chambers+Randy McMichael=SuperBowl. Sorry to say it, but Peyton would add so much to our offense I can't even begin to describe it....Chambers would be an all-pro, and the oline would look a whole hell of a lot better with Manning PA faking and actually hitting everyone in stride, he would open up the field like Jay never could. I can't believe you're even comparing the two. Jay is still inconsistent even when he has time but Peyton is dead money when he has time and also throws a hell of a deep ball, its not even a comparison. Big deal he would have got sacked alot, so what he'd more than make up for it with the big plays he can provide. IMO Peyton Manning would have led us to at least a SB appearance with the team from 2002 or 2003.
