his slump is less than 60%, 250+ yards, and a few TDs with a couple INTS...so is that a slump for him?
is there anything he can do to help his defense?

Yes he is in a slump. Only difference this season from any other season is Peyton is starting to choke much earlier. He usually waits until the playoffs to totally blow up.

I'm a huge peyton manning fan, but the reality is he is struggling. he's still producing yards wise but he hasnt thrown more than a TD per game since week 11. bottom line you cant win if you cant put points on the board. Indy's D is the real problem here there front 7 are so undersized a 12 year old kid could run through them. peyton has to keep producing if colts have a shot at winning, he has no control over the D, but the more he's on the feild, the less the D has to work, lately he hasnt been giving them much help, but he is due for a big game and the colts will come through

It's hard to produce when you're giving up 200 yards rushing per game. That burns the clock and puts pressure on Manning to score every time he has the ball. He is slumping a bit, but it's not all his fault.

No he is not in a slump. If you watch the games you will see that he throws the right passes but you cannot help it if the recievers cannot catch it when it is thrown perfect.

He threw for over 300 yards last week. I'm confused by your question. just because the defense sucks doesn't mean he is doing bad. Peyton doesn't play defense.

He's not in a slump, and since he doesn't PLAY defense, he has no chance of helping those goofballs at all.

I remember the same questions being asked about Kenny Stabler when he was with the Raiders in the seventies. He never said anything and kept trying to win games. However, Casper said it for him in that his receivers were not catching the ball.
