A Tribute to the Manning QBs

If you have a chance, it's fun to watch this video compilation that the NFL put together with the top 25 plays by the Mannings (thanks to @clt_ny for finding this):

Three observations:

1. Peyton was obviously the best of the three, but mostly due to his accuracy and his sheer volume of productivity over a long career. He didn't have that many spectacular or dramatic plays (if the video is any indication, I only saw a small fraction of his games), he was just consistently good.

2. Eli gets the top 1-2-3 plays and 5 of the top 10, and he had more dramatic plays in important situations than either of the others.

3. It's been a long time since Archie roamed NFL fields, but this video is a reminder of what an outrageous and entertaining QB he was for mostly bad teams. Definitely the most fun to watch.
