re: Jim Irsay: Colts underachieved in the playoffs with Manning

Also one of the things I admire most about Manning is after all of these hard losses the dude goes right out there and takes it on the chin in front of the mics 15 mins later without acting like an arse. I think the fact that they are running shorter routes bodes well for their playoff chances in shitty weather.

Here is a stat for you. Peyton Manning's team has led in the 4th quarter in 11 consecutive playoff games. That does not sound like someone who folds in playoff games.
Irsay was talking about changing a system from relying on one person to the entire team pitching in. Here is former GM Casserly explaining what Irsay is trying to say:

Biggest stat provided by Casserly is the fact that the Pats won their first super bowl with Brady when Brady was making $315K! His second and third super bowl, he was making $7.5M. Since he got his big contract, they could not afford to pay for a great defense and have not won a super bowl since.
My addition: In the last 15 years or so, only one QB was making elite QB money when he won the super bowl - Peyton Manning. All other QB's who won were paid well below market value, allowing the team to spend more on other players.
