Meh. Manning gets the same calls Brady and Brees get.
The big difference with Manning is that you simply cannot even brush against his WR's. Hell, covering them too closely is often enough to draw a flag.
I know in 2004-2006 no QB had more 3rd down conversions on penalties than Manning. I didn't pay any attention after that, but from what I've seen those particular manning rules are still in place.
