The Peyton Manning Discussion thread

[AiiRxJONES]

Im going to say Denver just for the simple fact thay have $43 mill in salary cap space. The Broncos can give Manning what ever he wants such as signing free agents, Reggie Wayne, Jeff Saturday and Dallas Clark, lastly not to leave out his own personal asking price. This is crazy and i feel for Tebow, but come on its Peyton...

You're so focused on promoting your YouTube videos you missed that Wayne re-signed with the Colts.

6 hours? Jesus...I have a feeling I may have been wrong, and that Tennessee is closing in on signing Manning.

Every other team spent 6-7 hours with Manning. He stayed in Denver for 2 days, didn't leave for Arizona until 4 or 5 local time.

My Guesses are that if he takes some time to make the decision. My guess is that he makes decision in the afternoon tomorrow.

Yeah, I'm expecting that now.

Still, 6 1/2 hours is awfully long so this could mean something.

Manning's numbers playing outdoors have always taken a hit throughout his career. The warm Miami weather could help the transition to playing outside a bit easier. I'm not saying he can't win in Denver, Arizona or Tennessee. I just feel Miami gives him the best chance to go deep into the playoffs.

If I'm looking at this totally objectively, Miami has the least to offer of the potential teams. Bush and Thomas in backfield are fine, but that's mitigated by the fact that there's no one on the outside to throw to right now. Bess and Hartline are solid, but they aren't game changers and wouldn't come close to matching the firepower he would have right off the bat in Arizona or Tennessee. Add to that, there's not a whole lot of receiving talent left. Manningham is probably the best, but I'm not sure he's a true #1, then there's Brandon Lloyd, but he can't stretch the field.

Weather isn't necessarily in Miami's favor, either. Tennessee has a pretty mild climate most of the football season, and in Arizona, he'd be in a dome.

And as far as a deep playoff run, out of the NFC West, AFC West, AFC East, and AFC South, the Dolphins play in the least winnable division.


But I can dig it. I won't begrudge you your opinion. We're all just speculating at this point.
