Yep, I really hope it is here.

To those that say this is it for Shanny , then who would you really want to risk your coaching job with: Manning/Tannehill or another rookie OR RGIII and less young talent. If we don't trade up, I see the FO trading back and picking up some more pieces. If it's me, give me choice # 1.

This strategy will equal big wins and get this team relevant again for more than a year or two.

If Peyton is Healing I wouldn't be surpised if the Colt's pay him the bonus and put the number 1 pick up for sale. Restock the whole team by selling Luck.

I would be surprised if that pick goes anywhere.

Unless someone offers you 10 first round picks why do you even consider trading away the chance to draft the best and safest QB prospect of this generation? If anyone should appreciate the fact that QB's don't grow on trees it should be this fan base.

Think of it this way. Who has been a better team over the last decade? The Ravens before Joe Flacco or the Colts with Peyton Manning? You know why the Steeelers dominated the AFC North for so many years? Because they had a freaking QB while the Ravens were using retreads like Steve McNair and late round developmental guys (read:Troy Smith). The type of QB's that a lot of fans here would have picked for us in the same situation.

While the Colts may have been better during the regular season, the Ravens have the same amount of hardware as the Colts over this time frame. Furthermore the Ravens can lose there best player and not turn into a 2-14 team.

Re: QB Combo Possibilities: Which Do You Want (QB Rumors: Verse 10)

People tend to belive the media hype so much. Luck is not Peyton. No Matter how you spin it, if you can pull a Montana/Young type of transition for your team you better do it.
Not saying that they will.

But why can't the Colts take the opportunity to fleace us for picks, re-tool around
Peyton, draft tannehill to be his understudy and fill the other many holes in their roster that they will have this year?

Luck can still end up being a bust. Just sayin

Colts aren't going to pay him $28M without even being able to see him throw.

They're clearly ready to move on, new coach, new GM, and soon to be new QB.

IMO the best RUMOR to come out now would be the colts looking to trade out of 1st, want to talk about St. lou making a trade right now.

Re: QB Combo Possibilities: Which Do You Want (QB Rumors: Verse 10)

Pretty straight forward article. It's either Griffin III or Peyton Manning. I think the Redskins could win with either. But Mike Shanahan, after his failings with McNabb, his miscalculation with John Beck, and his irrational decision to go with Rex Grossman, has hurt the Redskins more than anything. This is his last chance to get it right. Maybe the sports writers are speaking for Daniel Snyder in saying that Shanahan will get canned if the Redskins don't start winning and soon. I doubt if he gets fired. He could very well be in Washington for all five years of his contract. But Mike Shanahan, must get it right this time around with his next major quarterback decision. Manning or RG3.

Re: QB Combo Possibilities: Which Do You Want (QB Rumors: Verse 10)

In the event that Washington is unable to trade up, I would say that throwing a boat load of dough to Peyton Manning would be better than drafting Ryan Tannehill. The Redskins could sign Manning, and then draft Brandon Weeden or Nick Foles or Kirk Cousins to be Manning's successor. Then in the draft, we could focus on building the team accordingly. We could use the first round draft choice on a right tackle, or maybe Justin Blackmon.

I still like the idea of drafting Robert Griffin III, but if we are unable to move up, then Peyton Manning wouldn't be such a bad signing. Hopefully, Kyle Shanahan will be intelligent enough to tweak the offense to how Manning plays quarterback instead of trying to micro manage him into being a Shanahan robot, which in turn would cause conflict.

Here we go


Unfortunately the commentary is in something that ain't ingles but the point remains the same. This guy is real. And for those who say TCU wasn't that great of a defense keep in mind they were #1 from 2008 to 2010. They dropped to 32nd this year in part because of this game where Griffin dominated them.
