    That may have been the best game I've ever watched, and one of the best moments of my life.

    How many times has he really sucked on the road, though?
    He had a couple problem playoff games in New England, wasn't great at Baltimore last year (but still did enough to help his team win), and had a problem in the Meadowlands in 2002. He did win a playoff game in hostile Kansas City and was tremendous in the game.

    If I find time this week, I could make a list of starting QBs' records in playoff games. I am guessing that Manning's road playoff record is not that bad compared to other prominent QBs.

    Yeah, it was 2002 and our defense was over achieving, but we blew the doors off the Pats, Packers, and Colts in 3 consecutive weeks. Chad was twice the QB of the other guys, at least for that short stretch.

    I always hear how tough it is to win in KC yet they have hosted divisional round playoff games 3 times since 1995 and lost all 3.

    Manning's overall playoff record was poor until last year but on the road he is 1-4 and he has gone 118-212(56%), 1280 yds, 5 TDs, 9 INTs, 63.8 rating. That's pretty bad.

    Chad is 1-3 on the road, 88-153(58%), 944 yds, 4 TDs, 4 INTs, 73.5 rating. Not good but better than peyton.

    He is 2-4 on the road with wins at Kansas City and Baltimore. He lost in overtime in Miami, two times in NE, and once at the Jets.

    Yes, the Chiefs lost home playoff games to Indianapolis (twice) and Denver during the past dozen years, but I don't think that changes the fact that the stadium is loud and is not an easy place to play if you are the road team.

    I meant 2-4, I aded his bal #s into the individual #s I presented which as it shows are very poor.

    No doubt about it KC is as loud as they come BUT they can't seem to win home playoff games and thy have had ood teams each time they've lost. They were 13-3 all 3 years and los their 1st home playoff game all 3 times- that's ba and Peyton has lost at Miami against the one of the worst playoff teams of this generation. Miami annually got humiliated in the playoffs in those years, they got shut out by the Jets then beat by NE twice. His road record is not good.

    Okay, it's not good. But exactly how bad is it, really?

    If the record was 3-3 that would be good. It's hard to win road playoff games. Manning's road playoff record would be .500 if Mike Vanderjagt converted an overtime FG attempt against the Dolphins.

    It will be interesting to watch junc transform into an interdimensional wormhole when we play Kansas City.

    That was a long FG and if peyton did a better job against a poor playoff D he would be 3-3. 2-4 isn't a brutal record but the guy's #s are also awful. He has done a poor job on the road but then again until this past postseason he did a poor job in the playoffs period so maybe he's turned the corner.

    Huh? I don't care about Kansas City, I don't care if herm wins 2 games this year as it won't change the FACT that he did a good job here. I appreciate what he did ad i'll clap for him when introduced but that's it.
