Peyton Manning is Evil

HoustonFan said:
Get to Manning then. Babin did a lil' somethin' getting the 1 and only drop on Manning, but if this was done at least 3 or 4 times that would make a difference.

-see Pittsburgh Steelers vs Colts in the playoffs last season.

Greenwood got a sack...
 
Folks need to realize how rare multi sack games are against Manning. During the existence of the Texans--66 games--Manning has been sacked 2 or more times only 18 times--4 of those have been by the Texans.

Anthony Weaver was mad about Payton running up the score. He said the game was over in the 4th and he was still throwing deep passes. He said this was something the defense won't forget.

Nice post.

A little perspective is nice.
 
Hmmmm, Peyton a totally evil guy in league with the Devil.

It all makes sense now, I think I understand why my EX-wife was always calling out his name when we were making..... ahhhhhhh..... nevermind.

Suffice to say she worshiped him.
 
I agree with the school of thought that says stop Manning if you don't want him running up the score. However, I'll add that it wouldn't hurt to put a little fear into him. When Moses got blasted a couple years ago, the team did nothing about it. When Carr got spiked on Sunday, the team did nothing about it. This is a game of dominance and sometimes you just have to take a 15-yard penalty or two. There's something to be said for just plain hard hitting as well. The entire game on Sunday, I kept remembering the Eagles v. Oilers game where the Eagles knocked the hell out of the Oilers. They knew the Oilers could pass all over them, so they just let Moon do his thing and then they killed the receivers (and Moon) as often as possible. And they won. Perhaps our team needs to pull that on Manning and Co.

Bwahahaha.



Apparently, Colts fans do not have a overly developed sense of irony. Who would have guessed?

A number of them freaked out about my suggesting the Peyton's alliance with Satan, and dumped a bunch of comments.

Though my favorite comment, as it related to the Peyton's avoidance of injury, is this:

That's why I consult Nostradamus' Pro Football annual before betting on a game. Unlike the Necromicon, they provide injury updates.

It's a funny series of comments if you are really bored.
 
I also noticed and was pretty upset. I dont root for players to get injured...but I have to admit that I wished we ended his career for being a jerk. He was just padding his stats and he always does this to us, I dont know if he does that to other teams but I am pretty confident that if he were up 28-0 hed be in the 4th quarter still throwing passes. Once he gets injured as a result of this, he will think twice. Payton will go down later on in the season, write it down :wild:
 
just an FYI


“The problem we had was it was 30-3 and we’re up basically four scores,” Dungy said. “We substituted on defense. You’d like to go out there and hold them. We didn’t. They went right down the field and scored in about two and a half minutes. Now, we’re three scores up. Now, that’s not the time to substitute on offense. We told our guys, 'One more drive.’

“They took it down and scored and we’re back up. The defense does the same thing, so we sent the offense back out there. We’d like to have stopped them a couple of times, then gotten our substitutes out there on offense.”

Dungy wanted to sub the offense but since you guys scored so quick we could not take the chance you guys coming back and winning it.
Also those timeouts your coach called with about 3 minutes left obviously pissed Peyton and Co. Off which is when he threw the bomb to Reggie and we tried to score.
Your team was still playing to win why shouldn't the Colts? :deadhorse
just thought you would like to know the real scoop instead of assuming Peyton is out to pad his stats.
 
peyton is not even a good quarterback. in fact, he's one of the worst. all he has a good offensive line and probably the greatest defense that has ever played the game. i cant believe he does so good against the texans

Yes kinda true but really does not make sense. When its close to the end of the game, and teams are winning by 3 touchdowns, mostly every team trys to run the ball to run the clock. I watched this whole game and the colts never stopped the pass attack. I believe peyton is just trying to keep adding to his stats. If there were only 2 min left, colts up by 28, and peyton was near the endzone, do you really think they would run the clock down. No peyton will keep passing trying to shatter every record.

You guys are rediculous. He isn't trying to up his stats. It is the beginning of the season, he is working with his guys. Experience means everything, even if you have played for 10 years in the NFL. Everyone has to get used to each other again, it was just the perfect game for him to do it.

As far as this goes, thats rediculous as well, if he even said that. That's like you whining to your older brother for scoring on you at will in a basketball game.

Suck it up and beat them, dont whine about how you got your ass kicked. Pardon me but THAT is why we aren't a playoff team. If we were, one of our leaders would say, "they played a great game and we let them bully us around, we can't do this". I am tired of this whining.
 
Classy--Jags at 1:42 on the Pittsburgh 2 yd line not trying to score.

Not-classy--Indy throwing bombs at 2:42 up 20 points.

Yeah the Texans players should shut up and stop it but it doesn't change the basic problem--the Peyton Colts running up the score for whatever reason whether it be padding stats or childish retribution for being delayed 30 seconds by a time out.

When the Jags are classier than you, you have a problem.

Nice article. Didn't really think about it this way... the drive before halftime proves it.

I think he's trying to pad his numbers for a HOF run. And we helped his case.
Click to expand...

its not padding his numbers, it's called beating the spread, if they didnt score another touchdown the spread would have been 13, and the vegas line was 13 1/2. I thought it was completely uncalled for, and should be investigated by the league. most teams would have run the clock out with that kinda lead and put in their backups. I gotta cry foul on this. anyone else thought of that?

That's what Dungy says, but that is not what happened.


This is the first Colts offensive series after the score is 30-3 at the end of the third, beginning of the fourth:

1-10-IND36 (1:36) P.Manning pass short middle to D.Rhodes to IND 42 for 6 yards (D.McCleon).
2-4-IND42 (:55) P.Manning pass short right to M.Harrison pushed ob at HST 41 for 17 yards (D.Robinson).
1-10-HOU41 (:26) D.Rhodes right guard to HST 35 for 6 yards (Tr.Johnson).
Fourth Quarter
Indianapolis Colts continued...
2-4-HOU35 (15:00) P.Manning sacked at HST 45 for -10 yards (J.Babin).
3-14-HOU45 (14:24) (Shotgun) P.Manning pass incomplete deep right to M.Harrison.
4-14-HOU45 (14:20) H.Smith punts 45 yards to end zone, Center-J.Snow, Touchback.

Kansas City was able to keep pounding the ball against the Texans to the tune of a record setting day for Larry Johnson last year. And keeping the Texans offense off of the field. But the Peyton needs to throw it 4 out of 5 times when the Colts are up by 27 at the beginning of the fourth?

He was very fortunate that Babin didn't end the Colts season because Indy apparently can't run the ball up by 27 against the 32nd ranked defense in the league.

One third of the Colts players have injuries this week. link Not Peyton of course because of his Satan deal.
 
Yep, it was pretty crappy of the Colts to do. I understand if your up 20 in the third quarter and you keep throwing, you never coast, but with 2 minutes left? I understand that their back-up was hurt and Peyton had to stay in, but its called running plays. This is the kinda thing they do that makes you smile every year when they choke in the playoffs. Heres to watching them get pounded in the playoffs. It couldnt happen to a better team. Enjoy those stats Marino Jr., its all you will have when your career is over.
 
I just don't understand the pure hatred against Peyton from some of our fans. It is the typical jealous response...if he isn't on our team and is THAT good, he is bad! That is so childish. I am not a drooling fan of his, but I can appreciate the fact he is damn good and seems down to earth. He holds higher respect with me that our own starting QB, because he earned it.

C'mon folks, don't give us our fandom the moniker of "Bitterest Fan Base" or "Sorest Sports". We have enough of our own internal drama to keep us occupied for the year. It is OK to dislike him for being on the enemy team and taking our lunch money and giving us a wedgie for the last 4 years. Don't hate on a good player, find ways to beat the player. :)

Put the horse shoe on your foot. If it were David Carr doing this to the Colts (quit laughing, I can hear you clear in Katy!), would this be an issue? 'Course not. So why make it one now?
 
For a moment, I was also wanting Peyton to get a nice injury--Not a career-ending injury, but perhaps just a small concussion or a fractured fibula or finger in his throwing hand...nothing too serious, just enough to put him on the shelf for 6 weeks or so. I admit it. I casually and briefly thought about it.

I was angry that he was still in there, racking up passing yards when the game was already won. He could have been nice. "Could have."

And that's when I realized something that I had mentioned in a thread I started that same day after the end of the game. It goes something like this:

...We as Texans fans THINK we have it bad for being in our condition, for our team's "woes," but we have nothing on Colts fan. Colts fan sees an unstoppable Colts team implode in the playoffs every year. Peyton watches everything crumble before his eyes, all that he worked for in the regular season evaporate so easily without seemingly being able to do anything about it.

Peyton is, for lack of a better word, "tormented" by the inability to get over the top.

And THAT is the worst kind of torment: To be at the doorstep, to ring the doorbell, and the door never open. You're there. You're dressed in your tux with the carnation in-hand, and your date doesn't open the door. Sucks, doesn't it? It's a whole lot worse when you KNEW you didn't have a date for the prom. At least you could move on to other things, at least you knew where you stood. But for Peyton, he will not stop until he gets the girl. He won't budge an inch until he walks through the gym doors on prom night with his date, ready to boogie down to some great disco music. And then, it'll be even worse. He will not be satisfied with one championship. If you thought Brett Favre was hard to get rid of, just wait until Peyton's time has come...that guy will not stop.

He is, IMO, more competitive and robotic than even Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods. You don't understand: He DOES NOT see his wife the week of a game, which I think means that he must not see her all season long. I didn't even know he had a wife. Never knew it until they mentioned it in the game. Do you see her? Where IS she? He is focused on game film and practice and playing, and then repeating the whole process over as quickly as possible after game day is over. Dude is a freak. Period.

And so, it's no surprise to me (when I do the short math) that he stays in the game and continues to throw. Throws his helmet on the sideline when they have to punt in the 4th qtr. and they're up 342-10.

It's not personal against us. he isn't trying to insult us. He's viewing every play as perhaps the game-winning play in the championship game. He would play like that against a team of mentally challenged kids at a charity event. And that's OK. It stinks to be on the receiving end, but it's nothing personal...it's just "business."

Pact with the devil? Nah. Though that WAS a very funny article, TC. No, he's just not happy unless things are picture perfect. He could fit in well with the Count-the-floor-tile crowd or the Wash-your-hands-500-times group.

Rain Man.

If we were running the score up on any team, with a history of defeating them easily, or even no history at all, then yes, I would take issue with my team doing that. Texans (people, not team) are supposed to be hospitable and classy. Run the clock out, convert for a first down however you need to, and win. There's no need to rub it in anyone's face.

At this point, however, I'm all for the team rubbing it in the Colts' face when they get the chance (or any Dungy-led team, for that matter). As I said in another post, it really wouldn't hurt my feelings if they laid a few late hits on Manning, as much for a tactical "reminder" as a way to win. I agree we need to stop Manning - separate point.

I wasn't really considering what the Colts were doing as "running up the score". They were just winning the game. I have no problem with that. If they had let up on offense and stopped scoring, then there would have been a possibility for us to come back and win that thing. They didn't start running the ball to try to run the clock down because I don't think they thought they could. They just kept doing what was working. Which is just good football.


I mean, look at the Eagles. They stopped doing what had been winning the game for them and started trying to just run out the clock. They stopped moving the ball and scoring and the Giants were able to come back and snatch that victory from them. The Colts were just playing smart football to keep us from doing the same.

Consider this - the Eagles beat the Texans handily. They took the ball with about 9:00 left in the 4th quarter in that game and the Texans never saw the ball again. They could have easily bombed TDs to Stallworth for the entirety of the 4th quarter (it's not like we were stopping them at all), but they chose to run the clock out and go away with a win that didn't involve running up the score any worse than it had to be. You're telling me the Colts couldn't have done that? :ok:

KC was a pound it out offense but the Colts aren't. We had no pressure and no coverage so we were easy pickings. We weren't facing a team looking for a way to lose the game.
 
I find it this way..

If it's a team I am for don't complain if we keep trying to score. That's what our guys are paid for and you play for 60 minutes!

If it's against a team I am for please don't keep throwing and trying to score! You are running up the score and just padding your stats.

I don't think Dungy trusts his running game that much. Besides why change what's working? That's a mistake a lot of teams make. You're ahead, you take the air out of the ball, you lose your momentum, you stop picking up the third downs, and you get pantsed on national TV.

But you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. If we had been able to pick off some of those passes and come back, then the Colts look like *****s for not running it. If they start running it and we stuff them and come back, then the Colts look like *****s for going away from the winning combination. The bottom line is we didn't stop them. If you take the air out of the ball and win, you look good but if you start running clock and end up losing, then you don't have the killer instinct.

To my mind, the Colts just finished the game like pros.
