I don't think Manning would ever let a situation fall apart on him and result in a long losing streak, but then again, I thought McNabb did a decent job of preventing the season from falling apart, and he was sent to the bench for his efforts, twice.

I'm not saying Manning wouldn't be more successful than McNabb (I think it's a foregone conclusion he would be more successful), but I don't think he would be beyond the Shanahammer if it was deemed that Manning wasn't getting the most out of his team.

Something's still not adding up.

Why would Manning attend a presser with Irsay if he's going elsewhere. Makes no sense at all.

Peyton is SPECIAL. IF he is healthy enough to play, you take a chance on him. I think Peyton would carve up the NFC East defenses on a regular basis. Even if we made NO other improvements (which we undoubtedly will), how many more games do you think we would have won this year if we had a healthy Peyton instead of Grossman/Beck?

My guess who has the best shot to land Manning:

1. Arizona
2. Jets
3. Chiefs
4. Fins
5. Skins

Skins will be in the discussion, but I still think the focus will be to move up and get RG3. I think that appeals more to Shanny at this point.

5-11 wont be bad enough to get Barkley next year.

If Manning comes to the Redskins through free agency, I wouldn't be mad because I know what he's capable of as far as leading an offense. But at this point, I'd rather have RG3.

Manning sweepstakes

1. Kansas City
2. Arizona
3. Washington
4. Miami
5. Denver
6. New York Jets
7. Seattle

Irsay can mollify Colts fans. Peyton can say goodbye. A hopeful PR win-win.

my guess would be arizona, simply because of the building they play in/the climate they live in to keep those muscles loose

Denver could be the darkhorse. I think they got hella cap space too, a GM who wants another SB tomorrow and clearly doesnt have the patience with Tebow.

I know this might sound crazy, but if Im Baltimore Im on the phone with Manning's agent right now. You know what Ed Reed and Ray Ray are thinking, window is closing.

It would probably take less time to list the teams that wouldn't be interested

Yup, everyone can shake hands and walk away friends.

The fans will forgive them as soon as they get a good look at Luck on the field.
