It's well known that during his career Manning was famous for running his own offense and having free reign to audible before the snap..such was his high iq and vast study and knowledge of defenses. Well during the superbowl we saw a historic moment on that 3rd and 15, now known as the "wasp play", which sideline footage showed Pat calling for himself. Having been so right with his call, The question is will Pat start calling his own plays more often moving forward? And will Andy give him the license to do so? I think this will be the next big step In Pat's development tbh...Brady spoke about "having the answers to all the tests"...and this is the road Pat is walking on now.

He's not following anyone's foot steps. He's carving his own MFing path.

How many other qb's you know did what Peyton did? It's a very unique thing.

Today maybe. Lenny Dawson called his own plays frequently.

Pat is already better at this point in his career than fivehead ever was.

Nothing to do with ability...it's about calling his own plays and running his own offense.

I get what you are saying and do expect Mahomes to evolve into that "field general" with time. But, it started long before Peyton Manning, John Unitas called his own plays way back when. Obviously Mahomes a far better athlete than those two.

Well firstly thanks for reading the OP properly!!!..yeah I haven't studied Unitas much but clearly him and Manning are In the minority right? Most QB's rely on their OC throughout their career but IF Pat reaches the stage where he's a field general then it's really gonna be incredible to watch. I think Rodgers has a little bit of that In him too.

I expect to see Mahomes doing more next season when it comes to reading defenses and knowing how to deal with it. And as time goes on and experience we start seeing him more aware of the actual situation when he comes to the line. And his team getting more used to him changing things.

No. Peyton was a choke artist the majority of his career, Pat is already a champion.

Exactly.

Manning never won a championship because of his value as a passer.

He held those 2 championship teams back, if anything.

Choke artists dont go to 4 super bowls. Vinnie Testaverde, Mark Sanchez...someone like that. Those are choke artists.

Jim Kelly went to and lost four consecutive Super Bowls.

Fran Tarkenton went to three Super Bowls, and obviously lost all three of them. I thought you said you were 54 and along-time sports follower?
