People really forget how other worldly good Peyton Manning was. He’s the only 5x MVP in NFL history. For perspective, no one else has more than 3. There’s never going to be another QB like him because he legitimately mastered playing QB. All the audibles and signals at the line of scrimmage, no one else does it like he did.
@@OldManLuffy just say the last sentence over and over it kinda rhymes like past and throwback, I don’t really know the point was that it was a good comment 😂

@@mingywantwingy1379 I remember the good ole legion of boom days when the Hawks would win 13-9 slug outs with the defense scoring more than the offense
NFL at its peak in 2004 and two legends facing off against each other. Plus, 2004 was the last year of NFL 2K5, when football games were actually amazing to play. I am feeling nostalgic right now.
Classic, classic, classic!!!! This game desperately needs to be aired in it's entirety either here or on NFL network. One of the top 5 regular season games ever to be played
This is low key one of the best channels on UA-cam. They edit the games down to just the action so you can watch all the classics without having to devote 3 1/2 hours of your time to watch the full game. I wish they had more 90s Buffalo Bills games and generally older games from the 60s-80s, but that's my only gripe. Keep doing you, NFL throwback!
They were supposed to meet in Super Bowl 44 when Manning was the MVP and Favre was having a career resurgence with the Vikings. However, a certain team in Louisiana had other plans.
Unreal thanks for HD! So often it seems that even NFL Throwback doesn’t have access to HD copies of games from early in the HD era, it’s so good to finally see this one in HD
This was, and probably always will be, the best game I ever watched in person!!! I remember being exhausted at halftime from going nuts during that first half!!! Manning and Favre were amazing!
That’s the problem with the way the NFL schedule works. The Packers would only see the Colts every 4 years thanks to the division rotation every year. Next time the Packers see the Colts will be 2024 at Green Bay and probably Rodgers and Rivers will both be retired.
@@tempest20000 Furthermore, I think every year an AFC team and NFC team from the division they played two years ago should play each other and the particular match ups would be based on finish within their division last year. In 2020 it would be: -AFC North teams vs NFC South teams -AFC South teams vs NFC East teams -AFC East teams vs NFC North teams -AFC West teams vs NFC West teams Why? Because each of these divisions played two years ago in 2018 (and will play in two years in 2022). That way you get variety in terms of match ups where we can get good match ups that don’t take four years to pass. If this system were utilized, the following matchups would occur: -Ravens vs Saints -Texans vs Eagles -Patriots vs Packers -Chiefs vs 49ers These teams would play because of the previously mentioned division matchups and all these teams were the division winners. And so it goes accordingly with the second, third, and fourth placed teams regarding matchups. What are your thoughts on that?

The thing everyone loves to romanticize about Favre was that “Gunslinger” mentality. That never made him great. His great period was 95-98 and he was playing within Mike Holmgren’s West Coast system. He controlled Favre and kept him from making to many bone headed mistakes. Once Holmgren leaves, he starts making stupid mistakes. 6 INTs against the Rams, 02 Wild Card, 4th and 26, 04 Wild Card and can’t forget the 07 NFC Championship game. Favre really needed someone to hold him at that high level but he only had that for 7 seasons. Imagine how great he would have been if Holmgren had stayed.
@@bootitup6927 I’m not blaming him for Sharper and Barnett hanging WAAAY to far back and letting Mitchell get the first down. No, I’m blaming him for the awful airball he threw right to Brian Dawkins on his very first overtime play. That lost them the game.
I disagree. I believe it WAS the gunslinger mentality that made him great. He threw 50/50 balls far too often...but unlike most qbs, it worked most of the time. He was so unpredictable with his reads. He seriously played like he was playing in the backyard with some neighborhood friends. If you takeaway his “gunslinger” plays, then your taking away 90% of Brett Favres highlights. He was a risk taker and that’s what made him great. But being this gunslinger also came with the bad
@@crossbonez1028 but he didn’t throw a lot of those 50/50 balls in the 90s. Holmgren flat out wouldn’t let him. He’d bench him and put Mark Brunell or Jim McMahon in if Favre threw multiple of those. It worked in the 90s cause he didn’t do them often. He started doing it more in the 00s and sometimes it would work. But that was in the regular season. Come playoff time, this was the time to be serious. Time to make plays. He definitely made plays. To the wrong guys. In the 90s, I feel every post season failure the Packers had (except the 95 Championship game) weren’t Brett’s fault. 93 and 94, they flat out lost to the better team. 97 in the Super Bowl, Holmgren didn’t call a good game and they went into that game way to overconfident. Even Reggie White said that later. 98, they got hosed on that Jerry Rice fumble non call. Come the 00s tho, Favre is making stupid play after stupid play in the playoffs. Those were team losses or team faults like in the 90s. They had a good enough team to win a Super Bowl in the early 00s. But Favre kept blowing it. That gunslinger mentality got the better of him in the 00s and it hurts his legacy to me.
I remember watching this game, damn, Manning was a machine!!! But I just loved watching “The Gun Slinger” Brett Favre, go out there and compete, no matter the challenge.
My God. Peyton Manning is the greatest definition of a quarterback I have ever seen. He truly was a step above the rest. Preparation, mechanics as in footwork and timing, seeing things on the field. He is the true goat. Rings are a team effort. MVPs are what an individual player should be judged by.
not really you notice how the team is mostly built around the qb, not the other way around, tom brady should have won more mvps I dont know how he didnt get the 2021 mvp. Peyton should have won more superbowls I think he could have one more but all the times he loses to the patriots. Mvps are just things qbs from the best regular season team. Tom brady has the most raw skill and talentand hes better because he conditioned himself to play at super bowl calibur until he was 45.
I wish we could go back to 04 quarterback times. You had Brady,Manning,Farve,Brees with newcomers Rivers,Big Ben and little Manning in there rookie years. That was before the nfl turned into college football and had power running and you could actually hit offensive players.
Two years later they drafted Greg Jennings, James Jones the next year, Jordy Nelson the year after that, then added Randall Cobb and Devante Adams a couple years later. Id say they did alright 😎
Love the footage. Collinsworth sliding in and antagonizing Aikman is pure butter. Manning was threading the needle surgically. These were the good old days of Madden and 2k football. I actually enjoy Buck always mentioning no flags. I think if the NFL hears how many times an announcer has to verify with no flag, they understand how it takes away from the initial emotion of the result of thr play.
@@Serching4JerryGarcia I loved the pocket passer drill with 18. Really gave you an appreciation for how he played the position. The aughts leading into the mid teens i think can be considered the renaissance of the game. We have legends and those that paved the way, but the way the game changed from one year to the next starting in 99 was what gave us Mahomes, Jackson, Kap, Watson, Baker, Burrow, Wilsom, and Allen.
I’ve been hooked on throwbacks lately. The best part is 99% of these games I haven’t a clue who wins or what amazing plays lay hidden in them. I can’t get enough!
Greatest game I was ever in attendance at!! As Colts fan I got so spoiled during the Manning, James, Harrison, Wayne, Stokley, Clark, Freeney, Mathis & Bob Sanders years! Some of the greatest players of all-time were on my favorite football team!! Now we have Wentz😩
@@uzumaki8611 Buddy, what?? Lol, Marino is like top 3 most talented QB's I've ever seen. The dude was way ahead of his time, he was basically Aaron Rodgers before Aaron Rodgers.
Great matchup between the sheriff vs the gunslinger. Would’ve been great to see them play in super bowl xliv. But of course “this is not Detroit! This is the super bowl!” Happened.....
Yea but it should have never even gotten to that point with all of the no calls and illegal bounties. It was a miracle Favre was still able to walk towards the end of that game
Lucks rookie season, and the game against Green Bay, hell of a game, and that's when u knew Luck was gonna be special, had moments before that game, but the toughness and grit he had shown in that game, amazing stuff to watch
It’s very hard to believe that this would only be the second and final time that these two quarterbacks would face off against one another on the same field.
I remember this game..chilling on the couch, hungover from a Purdue tailgate the day before. I was only raising my hands for touchdowns. as i knew our defense well
I was fortunate enough to be a season ticket holder from 04 to 11. This game was one of the most entertaining games I've ever been to, and seasons by a qb ever. Farve definitely made Peyton earn it this day.
I was at this game, buddy of mine got tickets for my birthday. What I remember most is that the colts threw the ball, I think, the first 23 plays. Never seen anything like it. You’ll hear Joe Buck comment a couple of times about “not running the football”. And Farve kept coming back…what a great game
Manning is the true GOAT. Won two Super Bowls with two different teams. Is 3 - 1 against Brady in the AFC's version of the Super Bowl. And he throws long touchdown passes and makes it look easy, never needed a Randy Moss to do it. Peyton Manning is my GOAT. Brady overrated
Brady never actually won a SB with Randy Moss or Wes Welker. His best WR's that he actually won rings with was Gronk and Edelman. Gronk is arguably the best TE of all-time. Edelman might not have lasted more than 5 years if he didn't come into that Patriot system led by Brady. Also, Manning is unquestionably a top 5-10 all-time QB, but Marvin Harrison was a HOF and one of the best WR of his era, which included Moss and T.O. He also had a near HOF in Reggie Wayne and a very good TE in Dallas Clark. He also was able to hand the ball off to a hof RB in Edgerin James. Again, Manning's career speaks for itself but his cupboard was far from bare during his prime years.
@@Riles3152 Manning's supporting cast never put up the same numbers without him. Yes some were older by then, and yes Marvin and Reggie deserve to be HOFers, but you'd be joking if you said Peyton didn't play a large part. Look moreseo at Denver's offense and players and how they ended up looking without Peyton. All of their career-high years were with Peyton.
Manning is the most pure pocket passer to ever play. He is a true field general. Any team he touched instantly turned to gold. He had a bad habit of throwing picks in the post season though. His achilles heel. He was a lame duck in his last Superbowl. I will always hate him for having my Chiefs number, but i cannot deny him his respect. Manning is a top 5 QB no question.
@@mingywantwingy1379 Don' t forget Dan Marino. I can' t decide who was the better passer he or Manning. But I' m more with QB who can run and scramble too.
This must've been an amazing day for fantasy football people. Unless you started a Colts running back. This was the year Peyton threw 49 tds, but I think he could've had 60. There were some games were Peyton had already four td passes by halftime and they called the dogs off halfway through the third quarter.
Yes. these were booth two amazing quarterbacks of there time. this game me the tingles. will watch this till I get really tired. it was that good. AKA. a Broncos fan 4 ever.
As a Pats fan, I respect both Peyton Manning and Brett Favre, but I would cheer for Favre over Manning. Brady and Favre are my two favorite QBs in the NFL.
Favre was so great, he made those around him play a higher level, even opposing teams.. the only 3x consecutive league MVP at a time when the league was full of talent and you could actually hit the quarterback
Is it possible you could do the 2009 AFC championship? I saw someone reccomend this a couple days ago and that was a good game. High quality content btw.
2 of the greatest playoff underachievers at QB in nfl history. Peyton is probably the greatest regular season qb with brett just right behind him but the amount of one-and-dones he has in the playoffs with a first rd bye is mind-boggling. I can understand favre’s underperformance bc his reckless, gunslinger playstyle really fucks him up in the playoffs but for peyton he’s too methodical and intelligent to play so poorly in some games. His 2 SB wins weren’t even because of him tbh. in the 2006 run he threw 3 tds and 7 ints the whole postseason, but i’ll give him credit for the comeback against NE. The colts D really stepped up during the playoffs especially against the run when they were ranked 32nd during the reg season. Let’s not even talk about the pick 6 against tracey porter and putting up 8 pts against seattle with the best recorded offense in NFL HISTORY. I am saying this a huge peyton fan throughout his career and he’s still a top 5 qb alltime imo and he’s had his fair share of great playoff moments like 2003 against the chiefs and 2009 afc chip against the jets but it has to be said. He could easily be the GOAT qb if he performed in the postseason as well as he did in the regular.
It's weird to watch a game on Astroturf in HD. Most of those fields were gone by the time most of us got HD. So it's weird to see that bright green really pop in a way we haven't seen before.
Since you posted a crazy shootout for this one do you have the defensive struggle that was the Bucs/Rams 99 NFC title game? Or did you already post that one before
As a packers fan these defenses after Reggie white left and until we got Charles woodson was hold your breath bad with Darren sharper as the only all pro caliber player from 2000 to 2005
The Mike Sherman era was a disappointing one because it was an era where the team had to rely on an aging Brett Favre's arm and legs to get to the playoffs and lose by either making a colossal blunder in a close game (allowing an opponent to convert a 4th and 26 for a 1st down) or getting blown out of the building.
Sure must have been nice to have Wayne and Sanders to throw to and E James running the ball. Favre had A Green (also great) but receivers not as explosive as Manning’s.
@@andrewjankowski9650 lmao look at Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne, Damarius Thomas & Emanuel Sanders numbers before Peyton Manning became their QB also look at Edgerrin James numbers after he left Indy & you tell me who made who better & holla at me when you have an legitimate argument smh

He made madden what it is/was
Couldn’t agree more.
The real GOAT as far as I'm concerned
Being a dome/turf team certainly helped his numbers, but he is unquestionably one of the all-timers.
Could make good arguments for Him not deserving 2 of those (08 & 2009), but still a top 5 qb of all time regardless.

ok whatever its not me with the idea that thinks peyton is the goat lol@@theaveragesimmer4780
Reggie Wayne ran his comeback route about 5 times this game
I wish we could go back to 04 quarterback times. You had Brady,Manning,Farve,Brees with newcomers Rivers,Big Ben and little Manning in there rookie years. That was before the nfl turned into college football and had power running and you could actually hit offensive players.
Javon Walker. Wow! What a throw back to the last time the packers drafted a WR in the first round.
Two years later they drafted Greg Jennings, James Jones the next year, Jordy Nelson the year after that, then added Randall Cobb and Devante Adams a couple years later. Id say they did alright 😎
Back when NFL games were this legendary
Russell Wilson having a similar season with both of the QBs, great numbers with a lot of picks.
8 MVPs between these two QBs.
These NFL Throwbacks are a Godsend.
Can't get a more exciting game that this one. Manning had an amazing game, the colts protected him well & he did the rest.
The quality on these youtube videos is insane. getting to see this magnificent game in this quality is truly a blessing
Right...these games look exactly how I remember them when watching it live.
I went to this game and still have the ticket stub! Go COLTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing game!
Love the footage. Collinsworth sliding in and antagonizing Aikman is pure butter.
Manning was threading the needle surgically. These were the good old days of Madden and 2k football.
I actually enjoy Buck always mentioning no flags. I think if the NFL hears how many times an announcer has to verify with no flag, they understand how it takes away from the initial emotion of the result of thr play.
Watching Manning play was watching Madden being played in real life. Glad I got to witness my favorite player in real time.
@@Serching4JerryGarcia I loved the pocket passer drill with 18. Really gave you an appreciation for how he played the position. The aughts leading into the mid teens i think can be considered the renaissance of the game. We have legends and those that paved the way, but the way the game changed from one year to the next starting in 99 was what gave us Mahomes, Jackson, Kap, Watson, Baker, Burrow, Wilsom, and Allen.
I’ve been hooked on throwbacks lately. The best part is 99% of these games I haven’t a clue who wins or what amazing plays lay hidden in them. I can’t get enough!
Man this really feels like hd! Amazing, and thanks for the double upload!!
I was there. I'm a Packers fan. The Colts fans were literally the nicest people ever! It was my favorite NFL experience!
Great quality NFL Throwback. Great quality for a 2004 game
Greatest game I was ever in attendance at!! As Colts fan I got so spoiled during the Manning, James, Harrison, Wayne, Stokley, Clark, Freeney, Mathis & Bob Sanders years! Some of the greatest players of all-time were on my favorite football team!! Now we have Wentz😩
Should have won besides 2006
Objectively 2 of the 5 greatest to play quarterback here.
Eh, I'd put Manning #1 but favre like #6, I think Marino, montana, Brees, Manning, And Brady are better.
wrong
Brady, Montana, Marino, Manning, Rodgers, Brees. All better than Favre.
marino better than favre?? stretching that one folk @greysen
@@uzumaki8611 Buddy, what?? Lol, Marino is like top 3 most talented QB's I've ever seen. The dude was way ahead of his time, he was basically Aaron Rodgers before Aaron Rodgers.
Really awesome game. Bunch of great plays, two of the best ever, and a close contest. Had to be fun to watch live. Great game, great video
17:14 Wait... Doug Pederson like the Eagles head coach? He used to be back up qb for Packers??
Won a superbowl in green bay as backup
Don't be surprised lol a lot of these coaches used to be backups or starters. I think Frank Reich and harbaugh used to be starters lol
@@Saints-ji3vj Yep Frank Reich is one of the best backups in NFL history. Played in BUF for almost his entire career.
Doug was the Eagles QB too behind McNabb. Philly and GB got a lot of connections if you look into it. Started by Andy Reid.
@@elvintran9620 He's the one that had that 32 point comeback right?
Well... It was the sheriff vs the last gunslinger
Great matchup between the sheriff vs the gunslinger. Would’ve been great to see them play in super bowl xliv. But of course “this is not Detroit! This is the super bowl!” Happened.....
Yea but it should have never even gotten to that point with all of the no calls and illegal bounties. It was a miracle Favre was still able to walk towards the end of that game
2 of the ALL-TIME GREATS!
2 years later: Titletown Indy.
Fun fact: 2004 Colts only team with a trio of receivers to have 1000+ yards and 10+ TDs in the same season
400k plus subscribers your work is paying off. Best of luck to you and this channel. I love seeing the content!
Thank you!!!
Favre. Manning. Legends.
Amen
This is great quality for 2004
LETS GO COLTS!!!!!!!!!! 💙🤍💙🤍💙❕❕❕❕ Farve-Manning Rodgers-Luck and Rodgers-Rivers, every Colts Packers games are usually fun to watch!
@Mike F forgot about that one, that one is a historic one
@@jminer6529 Football Rules
Lucks rookie season, and the game against Green Bay, hell of a game, and that's when u knew Luck was gonna be special, had moments before that game, but the toughness and grit he had shown in that game, amazing stuff to watch
This video quality is awesome!
This was the best era in NFL football. It was like the world was watching. Doesn't feel the same anymore.
Nice quality 🔥💪
It’s crazy that they only played each other twice. This was the peak of Walker’s career. He and Driver were a lethal combination
Florida st legend at reciever
This was a beautiful game!! PM was the greatest at stepping up in that pocket!
It would be so cool if nfl throwback liked this
How about a heart?
@@NFLVault thank you
HELL of a game!
I was there! One of the most exciting games I've ever seen.
Double uploads are the best days of the week
One of my favorite games I watched as a teenager. Love how Peyton's first half was better than Ryan Leaf's entire career
It’s very hard to believe that this would only be the second and final time that these two quarterbacks would face off against one another on the same field.
Greatest All Time Quarterbacks Are Going Head To Head In This Big Game.
This is some high quality for 2004
I remember this game..chilling on the couch, hungover from a Purdue tailgate the day before. I was only raising my hands for touchdowns. as i knew our defense well
I was fortunate enough to be a season ticket holder from 04 to 11. This game was one of the most entertaining games I've ever been to, and seasons by a qb ever. Farve definitely made Peyton earn it this day.
I was at this game, buddy of mine got tickets for my birthday. What I remember most is that the colts threw the ball, I think, the first 23 plays. Never seen anything like it. You’ll hear Joe Buck comment a couple of times about “not running the football”. And Farve kept coming back…what a great game
we here in Columbia SC love both QB's because these (2 guys wrk hard never never cheat because they grew up tht way now both QB',, s r legends now
OH MA GOD IVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS THANK YOU!!! The GOAT vs the gunslinger
15:39 Chargers win against Cardinals with a score of 7-1. Legendary Scorigami
Awesome game! 20 warriors going at it all game long headed by their 2 Elite Warriors in a strong war on the Colt Battlefield!!!!
Manning is the true GOAT. Won two Super Bowls with two different teams. Is 3 - 1 against Brady in the AFC's version of the Super Bowl. And he throws long touchdown passes and makes it look easy, never needed a Randy Moss to do it. Peyton Manning is my GOAT. Brady overrated
Brady never actually won a SB with Randy Moss or Wes Welker. His best WR's that he actually won rings with was Gronk and Edelman. Gronk is arguably the best TE of all-time. Edelman might not have lasted more than 5 years if he didn't come into that Patriot system led by Brady. Also, Manning is unquestionably a top 5-10 all-time QB, but Marvin Harrison was a HOF and one of the best WR of his era, which included Moss and T.O. He also had a near HOF in Reggie Wayne and a very good TE in Dallas Clark. He also was able to hand the ball off to a hof RB in Edgerin James. Again, Manning's career speaks for itself but his cupboard was far from bare during his prime years.
@@Riles3152 Manning's supporting cast never put up the same numbers without him. Yes some were older by then, and yes Marvin and Reggie deserve to be HOFers, but you'd be joking if you said Peyton didn't play a large part.
Look moreseo at Denver's offense and players and how they ended up looking without Peyton. All of their career-high years were with Peyton.
Manning is the most pure pocket passer to ever play. He is a true field general. Any team he touched instantly turned to gold. He had a bad habit of throwing picks in the post season though. His achilles heel. He was a lame duck in his last Superbowl. I will always hate him for having my Chiefs number, but i cannot deny him his respect. Manning is a top 5 QB no question.
@@mingywantwingy1379 Don' t forget Dan Marino.
I can' t decide who was the better passer he or Manning.
But I' m more with QB who can run and scramble too.
How is brady overrated?
This must've been an amazing day for fantasy football people. Unless you started a Colts running back.
This was the year Peyton threw 49 tds, but I think he could've had 60. There were some games were Peyton had already four td passes by halftime and they called the dogs off halfway through the third quarter.
Yeah it's insane his TD percent was over 10
Yes. these were booth two amazing quarterbacks of there time. this game me the tingles. will watch this till I get really tired. it was that good. AKA. a Broncos fan 4 ever.
This was a great game but I’m just absolutely in awe of that turf. It looks like concrete.
Colleges still use old style astroturf for field hockey 🏑.
I think field turf just looks ugly or incorrectly exposed on video way too often.
As a Pats fan, I respect both Peyton Manning and Brett Favre, but I would cheer for Favre over Manning. Brady and Favre are my two favorite QBs in the NFL.
THANK YOU FOR POSTING MY CHILDHOOD
Favre was so great, he made those around him play a higher level, even opposing teams.. the only 3x consecutive league MVP at a time when the league was full of talent and you could actually hit the quarterback
Best channel on UA-cam hands down
16 yrs later and buck still has the same routine. Pass is caught, touchdown, no flags
Lol
The only time Buck ever sounded excited was when the Patriots beat the Falcons in Superbowl OT
The best QB duel ive ever witnessed.
Best Football Game Ever!
15:20 look at the referee at the top of the screen
Nice eye 😂😂
Is it possible you could do the 2009 AFC championship? I saw someone reccomend this a couple days ago and that was a good game. High quality content btw.
YES 2009 AFC championship Manning was a beast that game
@@jefframos9973 yes
2 of the greatest playoff underachievers at QB in nfl history. Peyton is probably the greatest regular season qb with brett just right behind him but the amount of one-and-dones he has in the playoffs with a first rd bye is mind-boggling. I can understand favre’s underperformance bc his reckless, gunslinger playstyle really fucks him up in the playoffs but for peyton he’s too methodical and intelligent to play so poorly in some games. His 2 SB wins weren’t even because of him tbh. in the 2006 run he threw 3 tds and 7 ints the whole postseason, but i’ll give him credit for the comeback against NE. The colts D really stepped up during the playoffs especially against the run when they were ranked 32nd during the reg season. Let’s not even talk about the pick 6 against tracey porter and putting up 8 pts against seattle with the best recorded offense in NFL HISTORY.
I am saying this a huge peyton fan throughout his career and he’s still a top 5 qb alltime imo and he’s had his fair share of great playoff moments like 2003 against the chiefs and 2009 afc chip against the jets but it has to be said. He could easily be the GOAT qb if he performed in the postseason as well as he did in the regular.
TWO LEGENDS.......TWO LEGENDARY QBS......IN THE NFL.............
Yo I've been watching these throwback videos for about a week takes me back when I use to play blitz on Nintendo64 good memories
4:46 I'm looking at this like "Ya'll blitzing Manning? Really??"
Against that O line, bad decision. Haha. Didnt work out so good.
Passing of the torch the best quarterback of the 1990s vs the best quarterback of the 2000s
Still surreal seeing footage from the early 2000's in HD
It's weird to watch a game on Astroturf in HD. Most of those fields were gone by the time most of us got HD. So it's weird to see that bright green really pop in a way we haven't seen before.
Ref trips himself 🤣 15:19
I remember watching this. Top 5 game in regular season and the bledsoe vs marino game come to mind . Battles!!!
PEYTON IS THE GREATEST QUARTERBACK OF ALL TIME!!! 🥇🏆
I remember watching this game while my ship (Carl Vinson) was doing a pre-deployment workup cruise. Standing room only in M Division berthing lounge
i love nfl network best nfl channel
I actually remember watching this when I was 9. Not the specifics just that it was a shoot out between Favre and Manning and that we won!
Since you posted a crazy shootout for this one do you have the defensive struggle that was the Bucs/Rams 99 NFC title game? Or did you already post that one before
As a packers fan these defenses after Reggie white left and until we got Charles woodson was hold your breath bad with Darren sharper as the only all pro caliber player from 2000 to 2005
The Mike Sherman era was a disappointing one because it was an era where the team had to rely on an aging Brett Favre's arm and legs to get to the playoffs and lose by either making a colossal blunder in a close game (allowing an opponent to convert a 4th and 26 for a 1st down) or getting blown out of the building.
I'll never forget this game it was the present vs the future Peyton Manning went crazy in this game skill wise he is the G.O.A.T to me
mE Too
Nobody evolved the position like he had
Top 5
Sure must have been nice to have Wayne and Sanders to throw to and E James running the ball.
Favre had A Green (also great) but receivers not as explosive as Manning’s.
@@andrewjankowski9650 lmao look at Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne, Damarius Thomas & Emanuel Sanders numbers before Peyton Manning became their QB also look at Edgerrin James numbers after he left Indy & you tell me who made who better & holla at me when you have an legitimate argument smh
Man I missed some good games as a kid. 9 yrs old and probably playing outside while this was going on.
Oh wow! Awesome game! Thanks for sharing
Miss this NFL
This was a great game. Questionable call aside, it was pretty revolutionary for its time. Donald Driver's tip toe touchdown was awesome.14:31
