Regarding the "NFL needs Manning to win" sentiment--Why do they need him to win?
The ads are already sold. Nothing to gain there. As far as his impact on the ratings, that's based on him simply playing in the game. Whether he's on the winning side when the clock hits 0:00 isn't going to make a difference on what the game ratings were.
Frankly, the logic goes that Peyton may retire (or be more likely to retire) if he wins. Surely, the NFL would like to have him back for another season or more. Overall, the NFL probably benefits more if he loses than wins.
