I guess I'm saying will P.Manning even be able to play? Will a doctor clear him to play? trust me I'd love to have his brain here with the Skins as either a QB or coach but after the early reports we have not heard anything about where his status is and it might be he doesn't get cleared and he has to hang up the cleats. So if we could get him cheap then I hope the Skins pick him up but I'd bet the Colts would want to get something for him and will keep his status a secret just to get a reward.
Can the coaching change for the Skins be that they are firing the QB coach and bringing in P.Manning as our QB coach? I'd be thrilled.

Yes i agree with you on all points. I firmly 100% believe that Peyton will never, ever, be full health again. I also beleive that he will attempt a comeback, but it will end badly, with him either not passing a team physical, or him getting out on the field and just looking like a shell of what he was. Worst case scenario is that he suffers another neck injury.
My statement earlier was saying that "IF", and it's a big IF. IF Peyton is able to physically play and be what he was before, he would be huge here to hold us down at QB for a year or so until a young gun QB is ready to take over.
I personally want to see Peyton go the safe route and go into coaching, but the media pressure with this thing right now is unbelievable. I never even beleived we would ever be talking about the Colts trading Manning, but knowing the Redskins, and knowing Snyder, it at least has to be mentioned that he could end up here.
