Re: Around the NFL - Offseason thread
Why would you be happy? It's funny how long has played in IND and no backup QBs under Peyton Manning have been coveted. It's quite the opposite with Brady and Aaron Rodgers. Wonder why?

Re: Around the NFL - Offseason thread
I think this has to do more about coaching, rather than the QB. Also, one of the failures of the Colts FO over the past couple of years is that they haven't improved their team much and depended on Manning to ALWAYS carry the team. Their defense didn't get any better and their offensive players basically were made better by Manning.

Re: Around the NFL - Offseason thread
While I believe that players often do not make coaches, there is a confounding variable with regards to Indy's backup QBs, which is the competence of the backup. Manning had talentless trash behind him.

Re: Around the NFL - Offseason thread
because he is a smart qb, a student of the game, can read defenses well, and is young enough to closely relate to players
