    All four Wild Card games went under and no team scored more than 24 points.

    Here are some of Bob Griese's playoff stats: (these are wins, mind you)

    AFC Championship game, 1972 season: 3-5, 70 yards, 0 TD, 0 INT; Mia beats Pit 21-17
    AFC Championship game, 1973 season: 3-6, 34 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT; Mia beats Oak 27-10

    Griese is the most overrated QB in history. A notch above Troy Aikman.

    There are very few of Manning's playoff losses that can really be pinned on him.

    I don't think you can say the same about Favre.

    All 11 of Manning's losses are someone else's fault.

    And for all of Favre's playoff nonsense, he managed to have a winning record in the postseason.

    To be fair about the Manning/Elway comparison, at Manning's current age, Elway had lost 3 Super Bowls without yet winning one, had he not?

    Sure -- but that was at a time when the NFC was lording over the AFC. The fourth-place team in the NFC in a given year would have been favored over the AFC champion in those Super Bowls.

    Elway also had a resume including getting to three Super Bowls and The Drive.

    Where does Jim Kelly fit into the mix?

    Hall of Fame quarterbacks Sonny Jurgensen, Dan Fouts and Warren Moon never even PLAYED in a Super Bowl or NFL championship game. PS: Any of 'em could be on my team.
