Not really a hard hitting article, but a nice little fluff piece on Manning's supporting cast through the years. Most of the current Broncos on there still have a ways to go, which is why the list is skewed mostly to retired Colts:
So instead of debating about the guy who’s thrown those 506 touchdowns, let’s debate about the guys who’ve caught them. The 44 players who’ve caught a regular-season touchdown from Manning — seems low, right? — are listed below, along with their number of touchdowns. This isn’t a ranking of how many they’ve caught from Manning, or even the players they were with Manning as their quarterback. This is about careers as a whole, which is why the top spot might surprise you.
