Today is very likely the last game ever for the greatest quarterback in football history. Let's look back and reflect on Peyton's stellar career and pay respects to an SEC and NFL legend.


This is the day the child prodigy with the golden arm spurned his father's alma mater and signed with the University of Tennessee.


Archie, Peyton and Cutcliffe





Peyton leading the Pride of the Southland Band after VOLS romped the Alabama Crimson Tide at Legion Field in 1995


Peyton announces he will return for his senior season at Tennessee


#16's final game in Neyland Stadium


This was the night VOLS won the SEC championship over Auburn with Lord Manning engineering a 4th quarter comeback


I heard he went on to do big things in the NFL too




College stats
11,201 passing yards
62% completions
89 Passing TDS
39-6 record in starts

NFL stats
71,940 passing yards
65% completions
539 Passing TDS
96.5 career passer rating
Only player in NFL history to win 5 MVP Awards


Here's to the NFL QB GOAT and the most beloved player in Tennessee football history. It's been a fun ride

Do we think he was introduced to HGH in Knoxville?

It must bother you that the greatest Manning of them all didn't even go to Ole Miss

Sat in the Ga Dome in 97 watching him beat our arse I learned that night to hate hearing rocky top. While I am pulling for the Panthers, I wouldn't mind seeing Peyton go out like Elway.

Dude should have retired after the arse beating against Seattle. It's been awful watching his body fall apart.

As a die hard football fan I can't fathom one single fan that doesn't respect Peyton as a football player. I hate the program he played for in college but respect him and enjoy watching him play. Hope he goes out a winner.

Would have been easier to show this pic first since it's likely he started with this at a young age. Would never have accomplished much without his juice

Losing playoff record. Brady is by far and away the GOAT.
