Peter King's new football centered website The MMQB has been a big hit with players, fans and media members alike and one reason is the smooth interface as well as all the different featured articles, including the 3Q Interview, which has the staff talk to a player, coach or executive and asks them three questions about the NFL and their related teams.

On Tuesday King debuted a new 3Q interview with Peyton Manning, quarterback of the Denver Broncos and he got right down to the nitty gritty, asking Manning about new receiver Wes Welker as well as how he feels after coming back from four neck surgeries before last season. Manning spoke about coming back from the surgeries and how it is affecting his deep ball and mentioned how he does feel a difference now after being through the motions again for one year and making it through with no issues.

Manning said that he sees some great similarities in his receivers now in Eric Decker and Demaryius Thomas compared to Reggie Wayne and Marvin Harrison and mentioned that both players have made great strides and he feels more and more comfortable with them. King asked Manning about Welker and whether he asked Tom Brady for any advice, as the two have chatted in the offseason. Manning said he did not, knowing that he was his favorite target in the past and said that Brady said Welker simply just loves the game of football.

King also threw in the question about 15 years from now, asking what Manning would be doing. Peyton answered that he is focused on winning with the Broncos this season and that is all he is thinking about right now. Not a bad answer bra.
