The Epic Brady-Manning Rivalry Is Over

After years of epic games, the Brady-Manning rivalry has apparently come to an end.

Both the NFL Network and the Denver Broncos took to Facebook today to congratulate Peyton Manning on his 18-year NFL career, leaving pretty much no doubt that he has decided to retire.

Thank you, Peyton, and congratulations on your magnificent 18-year NFL career!

Though Peyton's official announcement of the news won't come until Monday, according to ESPN, several other outlets aren't waiting until then to say thanks for the memories.

It is rather fitting that Manning retires after 18 seasons, seeing as he wears #18.

And going out after a Super Bowl win is clearly a good way to end a career.

But with Brady still in the game for what he says is many more years, he'll clearly have plenty of time to catch up to Manning's career stats.
