What are you talking about? Manning had more completions made, and 100 more pass yards than Ben. The Colts still couldnt pull it off. I would hardly call allowing the Colts to have 290 Yards passing “shutting down Peyton Manning”.
B. Roethlisberger - 14 Completions, 24 attempts, 197 Yards and 2 TD’s
P. Manning - 22 Completions, 38 Attempts, 290 Yards and 1 TD.
I’m not trying to say it was all Bens playing that won us a superbowl, but youre crazy if you think he had nothing to do with it.
