Did his "idiot kicker" quote come up at any time during the Super Bowl hype? Just wondering, I never heard anything said about it.

Back in 2003 after the season was over, the Colts' kicker Mike Vanderjagt said some negative things about Coach Dungy and the Colts. He basically said he didn't see the Colts getting any better since Dungy wasn't a fiery motivator and they needed a real motivating team leader.

In response, Manning said Vanderjagt had been drinking when he made the comments and that the kicker was an idiot.

I think what rubbed people the wrong way was some of the other stuff Manning said about whether or not Vanderjagt would be back next season. He was talking like he made personnel decisions. Well, we've seen that he makes personnel decisions for players and coaches and makes offensive and defensive calls too.

That incident seemed to be forgotten, just wondering if I was the only one that forgot that.

SI article about the incident from the Pro Bowl

LINK /

"When I get home, I'll deal with it," Manning said. "If he is still a teammate, we'll deal with it. That remains to be seen."

If he had His "idiot kicker" he might have a couple more rings.

He is stupid guys! He's a great QB but he is not a decision maker or gm or good in the big ones! Usually goes away in big games all the wya back to high school! There of course are acceptions, but more big losses than wins IMHO
