[1] MANNING VS. MARINO
Forty-four scores and 20 years ago
Dan Marino would retreat, bounce on the balls of his feet and unleash a laser show with his quick release. Peyton Manning is the passing master. Always in control and better prepared than Ken Jennings, Manning systematically destroys defenses with audibles and accuracy.
Manning is about to hit another target--does he ever miss?--and this one's the biggie: Marino's season record of 48 touchdown passes. When Marino set the record in 1984, he torched it (George Blanda and Y.A. Tittle had shared the record of 36)--and Manning is about to do the same. With 44 TDs through 12 games, Manning has a shot at 60. If he reaches that neighborhood, it could be an untouchable--at least until the NFL changes the rules again to help offenses.--Carl Moritz
