or their relationship, but it could very well be that she wasn't interested in having a husband whose life was devoted to football. A wife like Peyton Manning's (or any other college or pro QB's) puts up with a lot -- I would suspect that he's away from home as much as any busy professional. Probably more so. Jake's wife may have decided as soon as they got married that she didn't want that, and influenced him accordingly, and that may help explain the way his career's gone once he got married.
