Manning, Colts out of synch
Published: September 14th, 2008 | Tags: Indianapolis Colts, Peyton Manning, Ryan Longwell
Peyton Manning is showing his frustration in Minnesota. Playing without injured starters TE Dallas Clark, C Jeff Saturday and OT Tony Ugoh, the Colts are struggling on offense, leaving Manning looking exasperated on the sidelines. The Colts have 101 total yards on offense midway through the third quarter, including just 4 yards rushing. Manning, who has been sacked twice and intercepted once by Antoine Winfield, is 16-of-24 passing for 112 yards.
The Vikings’ 15-0 lead has come courtesy of five Ryan Longwell field goals (45, 27, 53, 46, 28). That ties his career-high, and is three off the NFL record set last season be Tennessee’s Rob Bironas. Follow it live in Game Center.
