Like i said, there are countless ones out there saying the same thing people have said for years.

That's the thing. People have been saying it for years and I've been hearing it for years. I just want someone to explain how he revolutionized the position (eta: with some support). Repeating that he has revolutionized the position doesn't explain how.

Even in the article posted by lsupride, all the stuff that we credit Peyton for doing (shotgun heavy offense, pass-first pass-often offense), other teams were doing it already and doing more of it. Did Peyton bring about these changes, or was the league heading in that direction already?

Maybe it's the audibles. I searched google for history of audibles but couldn't find anything worth a shite.

I just want someone to explain what Peyton did differently than other QBs. That article might be out there somewhere. I was just hoping someone who said "every knows he revolutionized the position" (or something to that effect) would be able to tell me.
