Bradshaw on Peyton: If you like losing Super Bowls, he’s your guy
NBC Sports ^ | June 19, 2014 | Michael David Smith

Posted on 06/19/2014 1:01:09 PM PDT by kingattax

Former Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw says current Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning is great — as long as you stop watching after the regular season ends.

Bradshaw said during his his one-man show, America’s Favorite Dumb Blonde, that he views Manning as a regular-season star and a playoff choker.

“Peyton Manning, considered the best quarterback to play the game today. Nobody would argue with that — if you like winning good during the season and losing Super Bowls, that’s your guy,” Bradshaw said, via PFT Commenter.

in college, Bradshaw sat on the bench for 2 years and only got to be the starter when Phil Robertson (Duck Dynasty) quit football because he preferred to go duck hunting.

so if you love a backup bench warming QB, bradshaw is your guy.

heres a question :

with the same lineup and Brady at QB instead of Manning, would the Broncos have beaten the Seahawks ?

my answer is NO. Seattle would have won no matter who the Broncos QB was.

The Ravens haven’t won since the gave Flacco the big bucks.

<><><<>

LOL. You do realize that it’s been only 1 season since Flacco got the big bucks, right?

And yes, we Ravens fans were in complete denial about the loss of leadership Ray Lewis’ retirement would mean for the team.

Yep, but he didn’t have any suggestions for changing the Fighting Irish or the Seminoles etc. Again, if he was to say he’s for keeping the Redskin name he’s probably lose his job. It’s hard to find anyone these days who don’t have a price.

Jim Kelly lost four. John Elway lost three. Those are your guys for losing Super Bowls.

“Bradshaw is your typical sports announcer PC liberal.”

Meanwhile Brett Favre is making political commercials for Thad Cochran in Mississippi.

Bradshaw was on FOX's new program "Outnumbered" yesterday morning....wifey and both thought he was either stroke-numbed or under the influence of something.

He could hardly get the sh*t out of his mouth.

"Jim Kelly lost four. John Elway lost three. Those are your guys for losing Super Bowls."

I always felt bad for Jim Kelly. Were it not for the kicker missing wide, he would have had at least ONE ring.

And Elway lost 3, but won TWO SBs.

I love Peyton, but he just chokes in big games.

One ring is nice to have, but he should have had more.

And for some reason, he had problems when he faced Brady at Foxboro.

He could beat him at the RCA dome.

And it's obviously not that it was a dome. He does great in an outdoor stadium in Denver.

He just can't close the deal.

Manning is 38. If he doesn't get a ring this year, I don't think he'll get another chance.

“If you have to pick one guy I would go with Montana.”

I would go with John Unitas.

There needs to be an asterisk for quarterback records - those who played in skirts and those without skirts like Unitas and Raymond Berry.

He’s wacked out. I haven’t seen him in about 9 years and he was odd even then.

It will be interesting to see where he goes next.

I'd wager that Peyton will go into color commentary when he retires.

I'd love to hear him analyze a game in real time.

Never won an SEC championship. Never won a National championship.

Tee Martin did!

Tom Brady “lost” 2 Super Bowls? Did you watch the games you Schmuck? Those were two of the greatest Super Bowls ever played. The two loses by Manning could hardly be compared to Brady’s “loses.”

You absolutely cannot get to a Super Bowl by playing poorly in big games. In defense of Manning and Bradshaw....neither one played defense.
