and he was injured for a significant part of last season...they had their 4th string OT at LT, and their 5th string at RT for at least a 3 game stretch last year...the game Peyton threw 6 picks against San Diego last year they were missing 3 OL and a few backups.
That offensive line hasn't been good since 2004. They are overrated because Peyton doesn't take sacks...
Kind of like how the Atlanta guy said today that, they were thrown under the bus for allowing so many sacks last year...and now they are praised...same offensive line...but Matt Ryan gets rid of the ball and avoids pressure so now instead of them 'sucking' they are suddenly good because the QB doesn't take unnecessary sacks.
People don't realize how much better Peyton Manning makes the players around him.
