I'd take Peyton Manning, without question. The Broncos backed off in the 2nd half in the playoffs last year and wound up losing to a team they were dominating in the first half. They didn't even choose to go for a score before the end of the first half with like 2 timeouts and P. Manning at QB with like 50 seconds on the clock, iirc.

Peyton Manning has had a long illustrious career. In that career, he has been mediocre at best in games that matter most. I would rather take 3 to 4 championships with a few frustrating regular seasons over a 10 year career than a guy who consistently can't get the job finished over those 10 years.
Wanting Peyton over Big Ben or Eli is the Marty Schottenheimer Way where regular season accomplishments trump playoff achievements.
