Love him or hate him, you can’t help but wonder what Peyton Manning has been eating for breakfast this season. At 37, this guy is playing the best football of his career.
Named the AFC offensive player of the month for September (his 7th AFC offensive player of the month award/3rd as a Broncos), Manning tied an NFL record by throwing 7 touchdowns in the season-opening win over the defending Super Bowl Champions, Baltimore Ravens, and his 16 touchdown passes are the most of any player in history through the first four weeks of a season.

Betting on the Dallas Cowboys?
Looking ahead to Sunday’s game, Cowboys defensive tackle Jason Hatcher told reporters, “We ain’t scared of nobody. I don’t really care who it is. They’re going to make plays. Any team can make plays against you. We just have to play 60 minutes of football, very sound football against a great quarterback.”
Just before waving off reporters this past week, Pro Bowl pass-rusher DeMarcus Ware said, “All y’all want to do is talk about Peyton Manning.”
And for the record?
“They have a really good defensive front—those two guys especially,” said Peyton Manning of DeMarcus Ware and Jason Hatcher. “They’re good players. It’s pretty impressive with the injuries they’ve had with the defensive line, how well they’ve continued to play. It speaks to their depth. They’ve always played a number of guys, rotated in. That’s impressive, they’ve had I think three significant injuries, yet they’re still creating a lot of sacks and are disruptive against the run.”
America loves their Dallas Cowboys, even though they haven’t been to a Super Bowl in 17 seasons, the longest drought in team history. And based on the latest numbers, the Dallas Cowboys attract an average of 87,016 fans per game, that’s +7,000 than the #2 attraction, New York Giants. According to Team Marketing Report, the cost for a family of 4 to attend 1 Dallas Cowboys game is $634.78, making it the NFL’s most expensive team to see live.
