Peyton Manning Broncos Quotes

I pray every night, sometimes long prayers about a lot of things and a lot of people, but I don't talk about it or brag about it because that's between God and me, and I'm no better than anybody else in God's sight. ~ Peyton Manning

Andrew Luck, if he gets to his first Super Bowl and he wins that Super Bowl, that means he won on the road every game except for that first playoff game. He went and beat Peyton Manning ...

If he does that, he's just solidified himself in that conversation as an elite quarterback. ~ Charles Woodson

It's not just back-to-back Super Bowls - it's back-to-back Super Bowls in his first three years, it's back-to-back Super Bowls climbing over the backs of Tom Brady and Peyton Manning ... If Russell Wilson wins back-to-back Super Bowls, there is no doubt it puts him amongst the top. ~ Michael Irvin
