Age: 38Position: QuarterbackTeam: Denver Broncos The greatest regular season Quarterback to ever play the game, had a down year by his own lofty standards in 2014, but it would still be a season that almost any player would be proud of. The five-time NFL MVP threw for 4,727 yards and 39 touchdowns on the season but struggled after getting battered and bruised by a tough St. Louis Rams defence in week 11 and culminated in his ninth first-round play-off exit of his career at the hands of Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts. One positive on the 2014 season is that Manning broke the career passing touchdown record held by Brett Favre in October, when he threw the 509th touchdown pass of his career to Demaryius Thomas against the San Francisco 49ers.
