Jim Irsay: Colts underachieved in the playoffs with Manning

Yet there are a few other numbers Irsay mentions that really hit home in processing the transition.
"We've changed our model a little bit, because we wanted more than one of these," Irsay says, flicking up his right hand to show his Super Bowl XLI championship ring.
"(Tom) Brady never had consistent numbers, but he has three of these," Irsay adds. "Pittsburgh had two, the Giants had two, Baltimore had two and we had one. That leaves you frustrated.
"You make the playoffs 11 times, and you're out in the first round seven out of 11 times. You love to have the Star Wars numbers from Peyton and Marvin (Harrison) and Reggie (Wayne). Mostly, you love this."
Then Irsay flicks up his right hand again.

Edit: 0-4 against Florida.

It's true. If you team has an ok running game and a good defense an above average QB can take you to the promise land.

Surely trading first round picks for shitty RBs is the way to build a champion

Manning chokes, It's what he does. He's the Bobby cox of NFL QB's. Tons of talent and one title to show for it.

He's not wrong. The Colts could have built a better defense around him but a team with a hall of fame qb, two hall of fame wrs, a great rb in Edge, and a great TE should have achieved more success. Plus it's not like they didn't have a few stud defensive players too.

He's not wrong about them underachieving in the postseason under Peyton, but he's full of shite saying that that's why they went in another direction or whatever. It had everything to do with Peyton's shaky and unsure health and their ability to get Luck.

I would agree.
Posted on 10/15/13 at 8:23 pm to Bench McElroy
Of course they wanted 3 or 4...he just told the truth!
Posted on 10/15/13 at 8:48 pm to Bench McElroy
The one time they won it they had a very solid running game and the defense played great.
Posted on 10/15/13 at 10:47 pm to Bench McElroy
Still comes off as an ungrateful prick

hes telling the truth

Truth sucks sometimes.
Posted on 10/16/13 at 12:45 am to Bench McElroy
count move on Irsay's part.
Posted on 10/16/13 at 6:33 am to Bench McElroy
I hope Manning breaks it off in the Colts.
ETA: what Irsay said was/is true, but he's a dumbass for saying.
