With Brett Favre seeing his astounding run of 297 consecutive regular-season starts come to an end recently, the race has already started to see who, if anyone, is able to take on and beat Favre’s incredible record, one that looks unlikely ever to be broken.

However, having said that, with Peyton Manning currently on 205 consecutive starts and looking pretty good to continue that run for some time to come, it is just possible that he can not only continue his current streak and title as the NFL ironman, but also manage to show that he can emulate the NFL legend that is Favre by eclipsing the other records that Favre managed to set during his extraordinary run.

One thing super bowl betting pundits can’t argue with is the fact that Manning shares Favre’s awareness that a good quarterback is not just there to earn their own personal awards and receive individual acclaim, but also to support the other players on the team who are key to safeguarding a quarterback’s ability to keep themselves fit, as well as helping the quarterback to earn passing yards.

Those looking at the super bowl betting odds note how the Colts have endured a pretty mixed season so far that has seen the franchise suffer from injury problems to key players at crucial times.

They know that Manning has been absolutely key to helping ensure that the Colts are still at 7-6 at this stage of the season but with the Colts a side that knows they cannot afford to see their starring quarterback end his magnificent run of starts now, Manning will need to show that he is capable of not only keeping his fitness top notch but also leading his side to the play-offs when the Colts come up against their next opponents, the 8-5 Jacksonville Jaguars.
