Peyton Manning completed 30-of-44 passes for 246 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception to lead the Colts over the Ravens in the Divisional Round of the playoffs, 20-3.
Manning averaged just 5.6 yards per attempt against a tough Ravens defense, but he was able to lead the offense on multiple scoring drives with a short, controlled attack. He also brilliantly convinced coach Jim Caldwell to eschew a field goal attempt in favor of one more shot at the end zone just before the half, effectively putting a low-scoring game out of reach. Manning and the Colts will host the Jets-Chargers winner next week.
