Nice stats

Sunday against the Raiders, when the front included seven or more defenders, Manning was eight-for-10 with 9.0 yards an attempt, threw three touchdowns and no picks and posted a 143.8 passer rating.

With six or fewer defenders in the box — when the Raiders went with heavy coverage instead of concentrating on the run or the pass rush — Manning hit on only eight-of-20 passes for 4.5 yards per attempt, both of his interceptions and a 14.4 passer rating.
