It is suspected that Peyton's neck issues started when the colts played a game against the Redskins on October 22, 2006. He received a high-low hit from by defensive linemen Andre Carter and Phillip Daniels. these are among the most dangerous hits in football and manning said "he wouldn't let go of my head" after the game. The redskins defence defensive coordinator at the time was Gregg Williams, and is said to have started the bounty program, a program that paid his defensive players more money for hitting offensive players on the other team as hard as they could. although the bounty system he was proven to be involved in was while he was Defensive coordinator for the saints, it can be traced back to his time with the redskins.
