Manning was just a goddamn monster that year and for one game that team suddenly couldn't do anything right. Literally from the first snap of the game.

By volume, that was the best season by a QB ever. I think advanced metrics would put Peyton's 2004 season (along with some others from different QBs) ahead of it, though.
Either way, yeah, idk. They just came out there bumbling around and couldn't do
anything right. It was truly bizarre.
I was always a big Peyton Manning > Tom Brady guy, but I stopped arguing so vehemently that night. I just didn't have the firepower anymore, especially after Brady and the Pats came back and won the Super Bowl against the same defense the next year.
