I don't think he can. There is so much PRESSURE on this guy right now, that if things just get a little out of sorts in this game he is going to unravel ! The Bears are going to make sure he doesn't get comfortable. The beginning of this game should set the tone.
What do YOU think?

He may have. Having been labelled with not being able to win "The Big One" must have been nagging him for years. Last Sunday was a big one but not the biggest @ this level. The experience he gained in that game might just be enough to make him relax for what he has ahead. He has the talent and the D side of the ball seems to be clicking @ this time. Its his turn to go to Disneyworld!
I would also like to qualify this answer by stating I am not a Colts fan. The Steelrs will be back next year, look @ the opponents a 3rd place finish sets a team up with.

Part of his problem was with Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and the New England Patriots. They were the dragon he had to slay, and he did that in grand fashion...by coming back from 18 down! He also did it with a messed-up thumb. I have no doubt he can do it now. I just don't think the Bears are good enough to beat the Colts. Their offense isn't that great, but their defense is pretty good, however I don't think it's good enough to overcome the Colts' high-powered offense. Colts will win, and it'll be awesome!

I think Peyton has already gotten past his demons, leading the game winning drive down the field, he didn't choke under pressure, he stayed poised and performed well. I think he will carry this mentality into the superbowl and perform well. Win or lose, Peyton Manning will have a good game.

ive been a COLTS fan for a couple of years now and ive noticed that under pressure, Peyton does tend to "suk". After the 1st half though, he always finds a way to bring back the win. I'm sure he and his team are going to have an amazing game this next week.

Peyton Manning has already overcame his demons. Question is he just good at winning playoff games, or great ?

I hope he can. I think he'll be okay. But who knows? The Bears have a tough defense.

I'd like to think that 'monkey' on his back is off already. It looked alternetly like Belichick and Brady.
