Curtis Painter Video: Watch Colts' QB Do His Best Peyton Manning Impersonation

If I didn't know any better I would have thought that Peyton Manning was actually back under center and looking good for the Indianapolis Colts.

If you were to just look at the stat-line I think it would have been a fair assumption.

A 67 yard touchdown reception to Pierre Garcon? That has to be from Manning.

Well, I hate to burst your bubble Colts fans, but I have somewhat of a good-news bad-news situation for you.

Naturally, we will start with the bad news.

The bad news is that it wasn't Manning hurling the ball down the field to Garcon. The good news, it was actually Curtis Painter.

That's right folks, it's time for the Painter era to officially begin.

Here we were thinking that it actually started a few weeks ago, but no sir Mr. Painter had his own plans.

He wanted to drag us on for a few weeks, almost as if he was planning on this.

It's a smart move if you think about it.

He set the bar so low that the first time he did something great he would inspire visions of grandeur in our minds.

I didn't see Curtis Painter out there throwing the football.

I saw a combination of Joe Montana, Dan Marino, Brett Favre and Tom Brady's haircut.

In a moment of seriousness though, it was really a great throw and it's worth watching, so enjoy the clip.
