Jim Caldwell Says Interception Won't Diminish Peyton Manning's Legacy

Facing a critical third-and-5 on the Saints' 31-yard line with New Orleans holding a 24-17 lead with just over three minutes left, Colts QB Manning looked to do what he's done all year, hit all-pro wide receiver Reggie Wayne on a slant pattern for the first down, but as Wayne made his cut, Saints' cornerback Tracy Porter cut underneath him and intercepted the pass, returning it 74 yards for a touchdown to seal the win for the Saints. Though the interception certainly wasn't the only reason the Colts lost the game, Indianapolis coach Jim Caldwell was asked after the game what the play meant to Manning's legacy. "I don't think it will have any bearing on his legacy," Caldwell said. "Obviously, he's a great player. It never comes down to just one single play in a game. He's still a great player, an outstanding performer, a great competitor and that (the interception) doesn't diminish it at all."

I agree that that INT shouldn't diminish Peyton Manning's legacy but it will eat at him all offseason long.

He still won a championship; I don't see why championships are such a huge measuring stick for quarterbacks' greatness. Yeah, they're important, but one player isn't the whole team. I don't think this will haunt him the whole offseason; he's not the type to let things like this get to him. He'll probably have some nightmares in the next few weeks, but he'll get over it and come back and still play at a very high level. I don't see the Colts falling victim to the Super Bowl loser curse; although that's what everyone said about New England in 2008 and they (somehow) missed the playoffs the following year.

It won't diminish his legacy, but it was a foolish throw. He took a gamble to pick up the big gain instead of taking the man underneath.

Reggie Wayne could have and should have done more to get to the ball.
