Having watched a few Manning games this year, I am always amazed to see those wobbly flying ducks just about always landing right on target. I'm not sure we can make too much of this factor. He clearly knows his limitations and is adjusting his throws accordingly. Usually from what I've seen, the wobbly ones are not into tight coverage, they are when he knows he has some leeway and just needs to get the ball out quickly. Ugly but effective.
That said - you are right about pressure being important. That said about that being said, Denver wiped the floor with the rest of the league in pass protection this year, with the least mobile QB in the league. 20 sacks in regular season, 0 so far in playoffs. (Meanwhile the Hawks were...dead last.) [http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/ol]
