He calmed down in the second half, taking only what the defense was giving him. That, of course, has been his biggest problem in the playoffs -- he wants to be the "glory boy" making the big TD toss. It is within his ability to win the big game; he just has to be more workmanlike in order to achieve that result. This weekend at Baltimore should be interesting because Baltimore's defense will offer him fewer opportunities, and he'll have to capitalize on 80% of those opportunities in order to win.
I agree with your assesment. The one think that I hate about Manning is when he does throw an interception and when he is walking off the field he has the look like he can't believe what just happened!
