Chris Redman gave the Atlanta Falcons a feel-good finish to an otherwise ugly season.

This was supposed to be Peyton Manning vs. Michael Vick. But Vick was sitting in a jail cell, so Manning had the Thanksgiving night spotlight all to himself. Manning went past a couple of Hall of Famers on the career passing lists, throwing for 272 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Indianapolis Colts over the Vick-less Atlanta Falcons 31-13 on Thursday.
Peyton Manning will surely snap out of it one of these days. He'll throw four or five touchdown passes, pile up a bunch of yards and everyone will forget about this little slump he's in.

The disingenuous drifter doesn't love you or any other fan base. He doesn't love any school or any NFL franchise. He loves himself, his playbook and his bank account. That's it. Don't expect it to change.
"I have been talked about and ridiculed on a day to day basis by people who really don't know Michael Vick the human being. They only knew the football player which is unfair," Vick said in a handwritten letter released this week.
