Title: I just was made aware of a stat that is mind boggling. Peyton 's teams have gone

one and done 9 times in his career. Put it in perspective, most players are lucky to be in the playoffs a handful of times in their career.

volsboy, let me help you out by giving the positive instead of the negative. The only way to accumulate losses in the playoffs is to keep getting there year after year . . .

Peyton Manning has led his team to the playoffs more times (14) than any other QB in NFL history. Brett Favre and Tom Brady are second with 12, Joe Montana 11, Dan Marino 10.

And even with all those one-and-dones, only 5 QBs have more career playoff wins than Manning.

Teams win. Teams lose. If it was all about the QB and only the QB, Bart Starr would be considered hands-down the best NFL QB of all time, considering his seven league championships. Yet he's never in the conversation. Why? Oh, because the QB was less important in the '60s. Well, if that's the case, why is Brady considered by the wins-trumps-all crowd to be better than Manning? After all, didn't Adam Vinatieri play a bigger role than Brady in two of those Patriot Super Bowl wins?
