No quarterback has lost more playoff games (minimum 15 attempts) when throwing zero interceptions than Peyton Manning (5 games).
Peyton Manning is the only quarterback in NFL history with two (2) "lost comebacks" in the playoffs. A lost comeback is a game where the quarterback met all the requirements for a fourth quarter comeback, except the team still lost the game because they lost the lead again. Manning had lost comebacks against the 2007 Chargers and 2010 Jets.
Of Peyton Manning's eight (8) "one and done" playoff losses, his teams have led in the final 0:40 of fourth quarter four (4) times.

Isn't it funny how these facts are overlooked so often when people call Peyton a "choke artists" or something to that effect? It's ridiculous how many times he played well or did enough on his end to lead the team downfield and win only to watch as his defense screwed everything up. The Ravens playoff game from 2012 comes to mind.
