NFL.com wire reports
INDIANAPOLIS (Sept. 29, 2003) -- Peyton Manning had a perfect day, and the Indianapolis Colts gave coach Tony Dungy what he had been expecting.
"It was one of those days where our offense probably played about as well as we could," Dungy said, hours after a 55-21 victory over New Orleans left the Colts at 4-0.
Manning produced his first perfect passer rating -- 158.3 -- since Nov. 10, 2002 and the third of his career. His six touchdown passes were a franchise record and one short of tying the NFL record.
The NFL rating is based on a combination of factors that include percentage of completions, yards gained per attempt, percentage of touchdown passes and percentage of interceptions.
