For Peyton Manning, MVP awards and Lombardi Trophies never have converged in the same season.
Never in the same season has he put together passing records with a Super Bowl ring.
So there is an encouraging omen for the Broncos in their quest to win it all this season: Manning has not been lighting up the stat line.
AND
The one time Manning hoisted the Lombardi Trophy — in a driving Miami rain to cap the 2006 season with the Indianapolis Colts — he had three touchdown passes against seven interceptions in four postseason games.
Those 2006 postseason numbers in sequence again: three touchdowns, seven interceptions and 4-0.
