Yeah but he's still not Favre. 

 

Meaning? :unsure:

 

I am a huge Favre fan as well as a Manning fan.  Two different styles to say the least. Though the commonality is that both are about as durable as any quarterback has ever been.  Both are fun to watch but for different reasons.  Favre a gunslinger with a high risk-high reward mentality.  Manning a methodical genius with the discipline and leadership of a general during war time.

 

Even though Favre's arm strength faded a tiny bit in his last couple of seasons, by the time he retired he could still throw harder than all but a handful of QB's in the league.  His demise was that time and some good beatings kept him from being anything but consistent except for 2009 when he had a 33/7(TD/Int) ratio and a 107.2 passer rating, both best of his career.

 

Manning never had the rocket arm to thread needles but his quick release, vision, and low sack rate has kept him from missing any starts(except for all of 2011) in his career.  I don't think his QB skills have faded much but this new offense has sure put a kink in the chain.  Hopefully this last Sunday night against GB is an indication that his timing has improved and he has made adjustments to excel in this new Kubiak system.

 

Oh, they have a tight end again. :D 

 

Go Broncos.
