That being said.....Tom Brady should win MVP and deserves it by all means this year. But there is nobody close to being as valuable to his team as Peyton Manning. The Colts are 1-15 and 2-14 without him. Again and again the Colts let the same problems beat them, but can get by and almost win a superbowl on the shoulders of their QB. No running game again for almost the entire season, a weak offensive line, brutal special teams outside of Vinateri and a defense that cannot stop the run.

The Dallas Clark and Austin Collie injuries were huge this year. Tamme stepped in and played admirably, but the Colts offense needs Clark. Revis shut down Wayne last year so Manning went to Clark and Collie for 3 TD's. This year he didn't have the same arsenal. Garcon had a big game but Tamme/White can't be counted on all game.
