It had to have been one of the dumbest things he has done so far in his career (making fun of his fans intelligence).

He should have simply said the game was his fault for throwing the INTs, not making the correct reads, etc.  (even if he truly felt that it indeed wasn't his fault he is the leader & should take responsibility).

 

If Peyton Manning had made those comments people would've laughed, because he is a proven great QB where as Blake is a proven failure at this point (despite his potential he averages 55 QB Rating on most occasions).


I think he's comments has more to do with his frustration of failing in his opening game than it does of anything else.  It really bothered me not because I was offended by the comments (I actually thought it was funny & bit accurate), but rather that it showed his lack of intelligence of making fun of the fan base after a poor performance.  Peyton wouldve never done that, in fact Peyton is fantastic when dealing with the media.

 

I still have faith in Blake to turn things around but he needs to have a near perfect game against Miami (regardless of the final outcome) to erase this comment from fans memory.
