2014 Contenders Football with Autograph

 2014 Contenders: I'm a big Peyton Manning fan.  He was one of the all-time great quarterbacks and has a great personality that makes him a good ambassador for the sport.  7X All-Pro, 5X MVP, 2X Super Bowl Champion, Super Bowl MVP, and the All-2000s team.  I miss him on the field.
No idea why I've never posted this pack I bought over three years ago.  I really like this design.  Just something about how the colors work, the design and the big logo in the background.  I can see me picking up more of these.
As a reminder, the Section, Row and Seat numbers are the player's height (feetinches), weight and uniform number.  Sam Bradford is getting a lot of MVP chatter for his amazing season he's having.  This was probably part of a Blowoutcards.com purchase.
That Touchdown Tandem is a good-looking card.  Always happy to pull an autograph but if you haven't heard of David Fales, join the club.  He played three seasons and got into 5 games in his career.  That is a Rookie Ink Gold #/10.  Great pull.  Just wish it was someone else from that draft like an Aaron Donald.
I know that Robert Griffin III's career didn't quite make the mark he hoped for, but I do like that photo and card.  The gold pants on their unis always look good with that jersey.  I'm also a fan of the dark blue Chargers unis.  Nope, not a powder blue Chargers uni guy.
The backs are okay.  The photos are duplicates of what we see on the front.  No stats but overall, I've seen worse.  5X All-Pro and All-2000s team member Luke Kuechly is one of my favorite players, so I was really happy to see him show up in this pack.  

BREAKDOWN:
22 – Total Cards
1 – Touchdown Tandem
1 – Rookie Ink Gold #/10

  1. A. I'm a big fan of Manning too. Loved his competitiveness and personality. Plus it was fun to root for him whenever the Colts played the Patriots.

    B. Congratulations on pulling that low #'d autograph. He's a fellow SJSU Spartan! Too bad he was drafted by the Bears :D
