ESPN: Peyton Manning confronts own body limitations
Here’s a quick little aside from Jets-Pats week on Peyton. This article is really pretty depressing, and I can’t help but feel sorry for what Manning is going through and how frustrating it must be.

It’s really a team deal, you want to put him in situations where maybe he’s more careful with the ball than he has to be,” said Jets coach Rex Ryan about trying to slow down Brady on Thursday. “If you play standard defense against him you’ve got no chance. I mean zero. I mean you better hope for a hurricane or something, because that would be your only chance. And, quite honestly, I’ve been on the sideline wishing for a hurricane. He’s that good, he’s that kind of guy. He’s as good as it gets right now.
