Manning wins the (co) MVP award for the first time in 2003
Peyton would share the 2003 MVP award with Steve McNair. Over 16 games, Manning would throw for 4,267 yards and 29 touchdowns against 10 interceptions. And while Manning would lead the Colts to the AFC Championship Game to face the New England Patriots, the outing would end up being a sour note to end Manning’s MVP season, as the quarterback threw four picks against the Pats in a loss.
