1. Near the end: Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning is a first-ballot Hall of Famer and one of the top signal callers of this era. But Manning, 39, is almost finished. Manning's passer rating of 72.5 is his lowest since his rookie season of 1998. Manning has thrown more interceptions (10) than touchdowns for the first time since 1998. And his arm strength — which was never great — is now a major liability. Manning's run — which includes five MVPs and 14 Pro Bowls — has been brilliant. But it's also about over.
