Did Fox avoid Archie to avoid NBC?

peyton-manning-picture-1.jpgArchie Manning speculates in this article that Fox showed Peyton often during Super Bowl XLII but not the rest of the family because Archie, Olivia and the rest were sitting in NBC's suite and Peyton was located elsewhere.

Not so. Fox simply (and correctly) determined Peyton's reactions were the best story line. (Apparently Peyton figured he would avoid the cameras if he stayed away from his parents, but the opposite occurred.)

I was wondering why I never saw Archie there. When the Giants played the Packers it was all Archie, all the time. Just showing one glimpse of him wouldn't kill anybody. It gives the audience a bad impression of Archie Manning when his youngest son is in the Super Bowl yet is nowhere to be found.
