From Bleacher report:

11 touchdowns, 0 interceptions, and a passer rating of 127.8, and three MVP awards.
Those are Joe Montana’s statistics in his four Super Bowl victories. In the biggest games of his life, Montana has played his best football. To go along with his Super Bowl stats are more playoff statistics that support his dominance. A 95.6 passer rating, and an NFL record 45 touchdown passes have led Montana to a 16-7 playoff record, the most wins by a starting quarterback in NFL history.

While Manning has been at the top of the pack, it should be noted his best days have come after the Ty Law Rule.
It is in the playoffs where, like Marino, Manning stumbles. His rating of 87.6 is not terrible and he has thrown a decent 28 touchdowns to 19 interceptions. However, these numbers have not translated to victories as he currently has a playoff record of 9-9. Six of those nine losses came in his first game.

Manning's post season mediocrity is more than the Colt's D, it's his propensity for Ints.

The point is that he doesn't "blow" in the post-season any more than Tom Brady does. In fact, he led the biggest comeback in conference championship game history against the Tom Brady Patriots.

What happened to Brady in that game? Oh yeah, he was intercepted when he had a chance to win it.

I guess that proposal to make citing Bleacher Report a bannable offense didn't pass?

Very telling stat. He was very fortunate that the patriots choked that AFC title game the year he won his only ring.
