Payton Manning's torrid start great even by his standards

The Indianapolis Star reports:
Peyton Manning has attempted an average of 36.2 passes in the Indianapolis Colts' first five games. He has wasted precious few.

Manning has completed a career-high 73.5 percent for a league-best 1,645 yards, a league-best 12 touchdowns, a league-best 9.1 yards an attempt and a league-best passer rating of 114.1. This is a quarterback at the top of the NFL and at the top of his considerable powers.
Amazing.
