Colts Officially Release Peyton Manning (QB Thread #11)

[Hog1]

PROBLEM!
Currently, Terrence Austin is wearing #18 for the B & G. PM will Never go for that. Damn, this could queer the whole deal........

People keep saying Houston but they forget Schaub isn't chopped liver

I really dont think we will land Manning. I would love us to, but I think he wouldnt want to battle his brother twice a year. I believe he will go AFC, and I believe its between the Jets and the Titans, and maybe the Cardinals.

I know that, that why after the two AFC teams, I included a comma - , - . But thanks for clearing that up for me and the rest of us.

LOL at people doubting Peyton Manning as a possible Redskin starting QB.

1. RG3 is very intriguing but he has won 0 THAT IS ZERO NFL games
2. we are talking arguably the best NFL QB ever
3. who cares if its a 2 year fix, would you like to go 6-10 the next 2 seasons?
4. he would not play if he thought he could get injured permanently
5. this is not a money motivated move for him

I can't believe I am saying this, but I want the old Danny boy running the show on this negotiation.

So was Manning the month before his draft.
Manning can get us two winning seasons?
BFD
Griffin could get us ten.
Manning has won the same amount of games for the Redskins as Griffin has.

Manning's not going to go to the highest bidder. He's going to go to the best situation. We're not even close to being in the running. Cards, Fins, Broncos, Jets and even Seattle are all more attractive options. No chance he wants to play in the NFC East.

How do you know this???

PM himself was quoted as saying he hasn't even thought about where he would end up playing....

Of course he hasn't. I mean the guy only watches infinity-billion hours of game film a week so he can have 5 different plans for virtually every look the defense throws at him. Not to mention he lives and breathes football and probably dreams about dreaming of football when he goes to sleep.......so yeah it's plausible.

i dont see these spots as more attractive than we are. the cards dont have much cap room, they do have a stud WR in fitzgerald. the fins have a good defense, and Marshall at WR. the broncos have a ton of cap room but arent normally big spenders so it might be hard for them to land manning. Jets have a loose cannon as a coach, if people dont think manning and the shanahans cant coexist, how could rex ryan and manning. the seattle team we beat this year, they have less offensive weapons than we do IMO. yes they have lynch but not much else.

Add the Chiefs to the list. I just don't see him wanting to play his brother twice a year with all the other options he has to choose from. Forget everything else. The O line and weapons talk is stupid. If he did decide to come here, we'd be the top option for just about every free agent WR out there and one top flight WR is all he would need. The O line is going to be improved no matter what. Just can't see him wanting to play in the NFC East.

And the money situation will work itself out. Teams would find a way to structure a deal and/or he'd take a pay cut. He's not chasing money at this stage of his career.

i just dont understand why people say he doesnt want to play eli twice a year. they are both in the NFL, and if one is NFC and one in AFC, they could play in SB. if you dont want to play him then try the NBA or MLB.
