not to mention I'm pretty sure they pulled out A LOT OF GAMES that year at the very end...they didn't go on any 11 game, 7+ points winning streaks.
Honestly, go rewatch their losses this year. They fell down HUGE early and Peyton almost brought them back each and every time (one game ended because of a McGahee fumble)...
what was the common theme in those games early on? (other than the Atlanta game)
THEY DITCHED THE DUMBASS MCCOY ATTEMPT TO RUN PEYTON FROM A HUDDLE OFFENSE.
They ditched it right after they fell down 24-0 to San Diego and Peyton brought them back to win 35-24. After that, they quit...and since, they haven't had ONE close game.

Yeah, Peyton Manning makes everyone around him better. There's a shocker. The AFC is terrible this year. Of course they won every game by 7 points. They played in a division where there wasn't another single mediocre team. That's literally half their wins right there. They went 2-3 against teams with winning records.
I think they can still get to the Super Bowl. But to sit here and say they're a better team and have had a better season than a team that should've gone undefeated is insane. Completely stupid.
