Tennessee - Peyton Manning on Letterman 1997

[kobeninjaspy3]

Manning is the master of preparation.

[feenyfighter]

woodson won?

[babykevinxoxo]

dave should have been a QB

[evanw2192]

lettermans a colts fan.

[letsgocolts127]

Letterman is a psychic

[yaimavol]

Letterman was actually really cracking up at Manning's jokes. He came prepared.

[SmoothCriminal57]

but i wanted to hear more on the cougars upset over the wolverines!

[finaldestination91]

letterman can see the future!

[ScarRebel]

Rocky top, you'll always be, home sweet home to me! Good ole, Rocky top. Rocky top Tennessee!!!!

[sjgilley]

@4:39.... Pretty cool coming from a record setting NFL 4 Time MVP

[ThleTruth]

wow dave nailed it on the second try, like manning...Nice..

[Coltsman4]

letterman called it...bein a colts fan im sure he was happy with the 1998 draft.

[JSwanny1030]

pretty akward hand shake/high five at 7:43

[ut4life05]

Gah Peyton looks young as hell in this video

[bmilla9]

damn, peyton seems so nervous lol!!!

[griessinthewood]

[success4111]

forest gump 

[brandondeal]

@success4111 You really shouldn't talk about Dave like that.

[ThleTruth]

@success4111 shrimp salad, shrimp sandwitch, shrimp cocktail, shrimp gumbo, shrimp stew, shrimp bbq, shrimp pasta, shrimp soup, fried shrimp, shrimp and dumpling, smoked shrimp...

[mcbrizzle82]

damn you letterman i wish it was buffalo lol

[Fancherkr]

@flozellthehotel why? He's a quarterback lol

[Fancherkr]

What a role model guy he is.. It's refreshing to know that there are guys like him still out there..

[sopranoman42]

Hmm, look at that. Two people clicked "dislike" by mistake.

[brocky70]

@sopranoman42 no they didn't. did manning get picked 4 times sunday by mistake?

[FlozelltheHotell]

hes probably too much of a southern gent.. thats his flaw..

he needs to get angry and get in peoples/players faces more

[reznorfan15]

great interview! dave tapped into some psychic abilities there me thinks.

[cmgww]

Summary, Peyton is not entirely at fault for most of his 9 playoff losses. It's a team game and sometimes the team didn't show up (2005 the best example). Yet he still manages to rally them someway, somehow. And the pick six in last year's SB was not all on him...people forget that Reggie Wayne ADMITTED to accidentally cutting his route short allowing Porter to jump it. That said Peyton still drove them AGAIN into the red zone only to have 4 shots and 4 dropped passes...

[cmgww]

2009, 14-0 start, Colts sit starters controversially, Colts advance to Super Bowl with ease. Beating Saints at halftime when Sean Payton makes most ballsy call ever with onside kick (I say scared cause he knew Manning and the offense would score on his team), and our 8th string WR doesn't recover. Freeney, playing hurt, is a non factor in 2nd half after ankle stiffens during long halftime break. Peyton throws pick six, but Reggie Wayne admits later he cut off his route (people tend to forget)

[EvilZeroSc]

@cmgww

damn dude, you just stated all the facts

[cmgww]

continued...wins SB in 2006. 2007, without Dwight Freeney, Colts led 7-0 driving for a 2nd TD when Marvin Harrison fumbles in the Charger's red zone. Changed the momentum as the Colts would have probably gone up 14-0. But no Freeney hurt big time. 2008, close game, one missed block on a 3rd and 2 results in Manning getting sacked, Chargers tie it, win toss in OT, Colts get called for lame penalties by worst NFL ref ever Ron Winters, Colts lose.

[cmgww]

Peyton will probably go down as the greatest ever. Yes, his playoff record is 9-9. But let's examine. 1st loss, against a superior Titans team in 1999 (they lost the SB to the Rams). 2nd loss-Blowout against Jets, team was in Dungy's 1st year in Indy and barely made the playoffs, but still a bad performance by a then-young QB. Losses 3-4, against New England, really only the 2 games where HE was outplayed. Loss 5, Pittsburgh, team came out flat, Peyton rallied them only to have Vandershank miss

[sbrooks729]

It is refreshing to see a college athlete finish with a degree and then go on to graduate school. There's been a lot of Tennessee players that have done that. And to think, people talk about how "dumb" they think he is...

[canaryfan98]

Thanks for posting this I had no idea Dave said this about the Colts

[68BarbP]

Where will you end up in the NFL? Will the Indianapolis Colts have a chance? Famous last words!!!

[Twixx20]

He sure looks different, but the voice is EXACTLY the same!

[nwo4lifedta316]

GO VOLS

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 peytons completion % is better than marinos

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 peyton is the greatest pure set skilled passer and the most accurate i never seen a qb throw like him besides unitas and marino

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 thats just a opinion sayin u need more than one ring, terry bradshaw isnt better than manning or brady even tho hes 4/4 in SBowl play!!

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 i agree wit ur points, but dont u think we would have won the superbowl that year against seattle is vanderjagt didnt miss that FG against pitt? peyton lead them back down the field even tho nic harper let ben tackle him which was dumb. peyton didnt have no picks in that game, just like our playoff loss against the chargers in 08 we lost bcuz of stupid penalties and darren sporles killed us

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 im not makein excuses, i just dnt like how u guys put all the blame on him wen they lose playoff games sure i will admit he had some terrible games but not all of em wur his fault, just like not all of em wur bradys fault. thats y i argue wit alot of manning haters, u win as a team u lose AS A TEAM! and a big part of it was our D. our d is dangerous wen bob is healty, wen its ranked high its bcuz of him tho our d isnt physical and we dnt even blitz the pats do plus they play the 3-4

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 see u started at 02 instead of 98-01 lol ur patchetic, the patriots d is superior to colts, our whole defense is based off bob sanders look at all the games hes missed shit he just GOT HURT AGAIN, the D will be stagnant once again. look at the run d stats colts sucked remember 06? the pats D is just better and the colts offense is better, defense wins chips offense sells tickets

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 idc cassell was a big surprised the pats wur loaded. our defense was weak thats y he only has 1 ring and our running game has been dead last in the stats joseph addai hasnt even ran for more than 85 yrds in any game last season and we still went almost undefeated wit multiple injuries on defense no sanders no marlin jackson no kelvin hayden freeney didnt even play in the 2nd half in the superbowl jerraud poweres out gonzalez out. patriots defenses wur superior to ours bar none

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 no, cassell didnt even get his feet wet in college, the pats r talented on both sides of the ball, the colts had to bring in dungy to help the D WHICH WAS A TROCIOUS, that patriot D was never a prob till last season, the colts wur awful at run d in 06 the worst run d ever and they still won the superbowl, its amazing how indy was won 12 games or more 7straight seaons without a great D they had some good ones and horible ones like i said our best D was in 05, vanderjagt missed the FG

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 reggie is a beast but he dosent show up in the playoffs to help out peyton, look at his numbers in the last postseason he was gettin shutdown. all peyton was throwing to was rookie collie and 2nd year surprise garcon. tom did not have a perfect season the giants stopped that shit. dnt u still remember that ur bois team was spygateing? brady was a fuckin bum wen he was drafted that BS tuck rule made him that was a fumble and u knw it they cheated oakland bigtime all it takes is 1 play

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 & lets not forget the pats had teddy bruschi. let me tell u how good the pats are tom brady got hurt in 08 and cassell gets his 1st fuckin start since high school and leads the team to 11wins, thats fuckin amazing, theres no way in fuck a backup qb would lead the colts to more than 3 wins a season. the colts is based off manning straight up. im not givein peyton to much credit im just tellin the truth. and manning is better than tom idc if he has 3 rings. peyton got the most mvps

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 1st of all i watched the colts before manning was even there they wur awful as fuck, i been a colts fan since, marvin was good but he needed manning more than manning needed him period look at peyton now still breakin records without him. peyton makes his talent look better than wut they r, shit our run game is fuckin garbage we cant even run the guckin stretch play effectivley anymore sonce tarik glenn retired, and by the way reggie wayne is not a HOF. who was garcon till last season?

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 and to close this there are allstar caliber players on every team u dummy, peyton made fuckin marvin harrison. in 97 before peyton got there he had 776 yrds 59 catches and 7 tds, ok peytons rookie season marvins numbers wet bizzurk 115 catches 1663 yrds and 12 tds, if that wasnt peyton makein him great i dnt knw wut it is, and he made reggie wayne to bcuz he had no confidence in his self early in his career

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 64.8 completion % to bradys 63.3. peyton is the only qb in playoff history to have a perfect 158.3 qb rating nfl record, and peyton only has 4 more picks in the playoffs than tom and peytons playoff numbers r better than bradys at every category. tom brady was drafted by a team that was already fuckin good thats y he was picked in the 6th round, they put the franchise on peytons back thats y he went number 1 the colts wur garbage patriots wur already a great team they had bledsoe at qb

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 whoah stop right there! wen the fuck did i start makein excuses, i replied to ur comment sayin peyton plays wit allstar caliber players evey year and but ur makein it seem like brady does more wit less thats the most bs i ever heard, one man cant win a ring by himself i never knew qbs can play on both sides of the ball. lets not talk about number now peyton will own every SINGLE NFL PASSING RECORD THERE IS. Peyton has 9+ 4000yrd seasons and counting, 5 30+td seasons....

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 toms staggering defensive players in the dynasty days: mike vrabel asante samuel willie mcginest ty law rodney harrison vince wilfork ellis hobbs richard seymour junior seau adalius thomas gabril wilson lawyer milloy, now peyton has never played wit defensive power like that ever, he has had better recievers and edgerrin james but come on man bradys D use to bail him out alot and put the ball back in his hands. colts D usually is ranked low besides the 05 season

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 ha r u f-ing serious. name me a superbowl winning qb that hasnt played wit a hofer? brady-moss, montana-rice craig, bradshaw-franco harris lynn swan stallworth, unitas-raymond berry lenny moore, steve young-rice, elway-shannon sharpe, aikman-irvin emmitt. peyton is better than tom period, and tom has had better defenses than peyton ever had. dnyt let me start nameing all his great defensive players

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 college is history bro peyton has a superbowl ring hes the best

[jmaal2345]

@MrSool15 alabama vs tenn is bigger rivals

[ogloque]

heh Peyton is so nervous here.

[ferrarimike23]

Manning has three more MVPs then brady

[clearimagemike]

@MrSool15 Again, you are drinking the media Koolaid. I am a Vol and I know well the two things Peyton didn't accomplish there: beat Florida and win a National title. Other than FL, we beat most everybody we lined up against at least once during Peyton's era. And we dominated our biggest rival, Alabama. He re-wrote the record books at TN and in the NFL since.

[Jentany]

"You're extra smart"

"I guess so"

[jeffbrister2004]

peyton and dave have a funny comedic chemistry lol

[jeffbrister2004]

it's funny hearing peyton say he isn't sure where he will end up :p

[adammvp]

13 years and still the same haircut,gotta luv him.

[8grove]

@adammvp Old man haircut....very boring

[dmp12481]

Class act.  Re: the debate below...Look at his stats

[nuknuknuk111]

damn this is old!!! greatest quaterback PEYTON MANNING!!!

[redfield1989]

lol @ Tom Brady being better than Peyton.

Tom Brady is about as gay as Tebow.

Big Orange and Peyton manning all the way

[kennyt97]

peyton manning is the gayest qb ever i fuckin hate him i wish he would stop playing football he is a disgrace tom brady is the best quaterback ever GO PATS FUCK THE COLTS and peyton manning

[calnwars100]

letterman was right colts got him

[kennyt97]

@tninbredretard so right could not have said it better myself

[sleepyhead7391]

is that swollen bursa sack the same problem he had surgery for last year?

[davidrzr]

@sleepyhead7391 yeah you are right, it was the same injury, on the same knee I think.

[KnowTheAnswer]

Manning is a LOSER

[Backalleypeprally]

He looks alot like Eli in this, like you can see the likeness alot more than nowadays.

[Matthewmullins212]

yeah that's when Tennessee was a team worth rooting for.

[gamefan101]

GO COLTS!!!! 28-14

[Juvy29]

He looks the same way lol, he wont change. Same haircut everything

[clearimagemike]

The ESPN led media gave it to Woodson that year. What a travesty! They try to create controversy every year. Tebow probably should have won at least 2 Heismans. If they would just shut their mouth with their silly analysis, the best man would win every time.

[cloud4527]

woodson deserved and earned it that year, but yea the media n all their over analysis bullshit

[PrUnEJuIcEtHeThIrD]

Charles Woodson was a legitimately beast college defense player. So I can't say that it was necessarily BS. But hey I'd say things turned out well for both players.

[AnEscapedMind]

GO SAINTS

[kennyt97]

@lkhjc80 peyton mannig is the worst tom brady is way better 3 super bowl wins to 1 perfect season to not even close and 50 tds in a seson to 49 but peyton and the colts suck

[Ruderidge]

Yes Payton could Indy have a chance in getting you? Stay in the south? Well Indy is in the AFC south so there ya go!

[joliefleur92]

He's so cute with his comb over!!!!!!! Best Quarter back of all time! GO COLTS!!!

[kennyt97]

@joliefleur92 not even close tom brady and the pats all the way colts and peyton suck

[joliefleur92]

@kennyt97 LOL yea he did his thing a few yrs ago ill admit pretty decent but Peyton still takes it!! and alot of room u got they didnt even make it to the playoffs this yr!

[jmaal2345]

classy guy best qb ever sorry tom frady u aint got notin on peyton

[kennyt97]

@jmaal2345 first of its tom brady and he is a way better qb and person then this faggot peyton manning i wish the colts an peyton manning would stop playing football because they suck so much dick its gross

[joliefleur92]

@kennyt97 Thanks For teachin us how to spell what we do with out u!!! AND! If you hate him so much why do u watch vids about him on youtube and make comments about how great tom is ... Insecure Much????

[P4TRi0T5]

@jmaal2345 umm, really tom doesnt have 3 superbowl rings and mannig has 1 really tom brady has the newest passing TD record, really brady doesnt have an undeafeted season under his belt.. i mean really!!!!!!!!!!!!  32 nfl teams play for 1 thing which is the lombardi trophy and a superbwol ring...so to say brady has nothing on manning you should really rethink what you just sed you idiot...brady has 2 more rings than manning has so now i believe it is manning has NOTHING on BRADY

[jmaal2345]

@P4TRi0T5 So is terry Bradshaw and Troy aikman better than manny bcuz try have more rings? Exactly

[SoupaMario]

@jmaal2345 C'mon man! Brady has two more rings, and broke Peyton's TD record. Brady IS better than Peyton.

[jmaal2345]

@SoupaMario So is Terry Bradshaw better than Peyton bcuz he has 4 rings? Exactly it takes a team not just one player. He broke making record by one td and Peyton would have had more if dungy didn't rest his starters that game vs Arizona. If y'all hate Peyton y watch his vids?

[sikness3r]

@jmaal2345 tom brady has 2 more superbowl rings on peyton.

[jmaal2345]

@sikness3r so wut man does that mean that terry bradshaw is better than peyton? UH HELL NO. brady has more rings bcuz he had a championship defense to bail em out for the longest time peyton had a weak d, they couldnt stop the freakin lions man, peyton had a better o but defense wins chips offense sells tickets

[afka3344]

check out that awkward handshake!! hahahah

[Prownis]

An amazing quaterback.

[daisymaytr]

Wooow, sure does look young!

And those damn bursa sacks! lol

Thanks so much for posting, that was really interesting to see.

[patelbhai987]

greatest quarterback of all time.

[JayCutlerOWNSy0utube]

oh rly?

[Gwitfu90]

@patelbhai987 If he's the greatest quarterback of all time, than why does he screw up in the playoffs?

[Gwitfu90]

@patelbhai987 I'll say he's one of the greatest, not THE greatest.

[koobsmooth]

@patelbhai987 How do you figure?

[8grove]

@patelbhai987 He's not better than Tom Brady
