Manning had another amazing season in 2014, throwing for 4,727 yards and 39 touchdowns. Manning is showing no signs of slowing down, despite being 39-years old. He is one of the all-time greats and should be in line for another monster season in 2015.
The only quarterback ranked ahead of Manning was New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who came in at No. 3.
While Manning was the only player on the Broncos to crack the top 10, four other Broncos made the top 100 list. Wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (No. 95), linebacker DeMarcus Ware (No. 87), linebacker Von Miller (No. 33) and wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (No. 20).
