I never claimed his quad wasn't injured, or that his arm was injured. Just that his arm unraveled like a spaghetti noodle. He made some pretty terrible throws that you couldn't even have excused on a leg injury if his entire fibula had exploded.

So then don't know football is the answer. Ok, that's fine.

You need to use your legs to throw a football at any level, let alone professional, and let alone Peyton Manning standards. He was unable to move well or plant with his leg and the results are what we all saw on the field from that game onward. His arm was perfectly fine. His leg was not and it affected every aspect of his throwing the football.

Or hey maybe you know more than doctors/NFL experts/Peypey himself, idk :)

Had this been a problem exclusive to last season, I might be inclined to agree with you. Peyton's looked pretty poor for a while now, though, extending into this season. He's also routinely looked awful in important late season games long predating last season, so there's that too.

On the subject of knowing more than doctors, who knows. Maybe I'm just that smart. In all seriousness, if you can find me a quote from a doctor saying "Peyton Manning played bad because of his quad," or one from Peyton Manning himself, then feel free to link it here and that point might have some weight behind it.

Also, in regards to not knowing football, I'll simply say "scoreboard" and leave it at that. Or, in this case, "leaderboard."
