When I coached high school football we made halftime adjustments every game. Our O-line coach was a wizard with the marker board. "Where are the lining up? OK, we need to do this then."
Maybe in the NFL those adjustments are made on the fly between series rather than at halftime. Hard to do that in high school with kids playing both ways.

Same.
I coached high school as well and we had a short position group huddle and then an overall offense/defense session before leaving the locker room.
On the between series stuff, we did actually do that on the sideline as well. Had a big enough roster nobody played both ways.

For big time football, yeah I'd say so. If you haven't made adjustments until halftime then you are already behind. In game adjustments start after the first series, or at least should.

I'm not sure what Manning was getting at here, or what he was trying to prove. I'm assuming he's just talking about how he just adjusted from play to play based on what he was seeing, but some people aren't great at that.
When I coached halftime adjustments were a massively real thing. Seems like they were for Nick Saban, Kirby Smart, and Urban Meyer as well, at least they reference them in these articles:

Definitely could be a difference between it being fake in the pros and real in collegeI'm not sure what Manning was getting at here, or what he was trying to prove.

Halftime adjustments are the female orgasms of football. You hear about them all the time, but you know in your heart that they are a lie.
