One of my favorite Peyton memories was also from 2006 when he had two (technically one) game winning TD drives. The Colts were at the Jets and Manning led what should've been a game winning TD drive. The Jets ran back the ensuing kickoff for a TD. So Manning gets the ball back with 2:15 left, marches the Colts right back down the field, and runs a QB sneak from the 1 yard line for what would become the game winning score. To me, that game represented Peyton Manning's ability to will a team to win more than any other game, because of the way he responded to having to go out and essentially win the game again. Most QBs would've folded under the pressure, Peyton calmly led an 80 yard drive in 85 seconds that suggested that he could do this as many times as he needed to to win the game. One of the many reasons I will always believe that the 2006 season was Peyton Manning's best as an NFL QB.
