He's not there yet. He's having a good year, yeah...but there's still A LOT left to call him an actual "NFL QB."

Sounds like Peyton expects not to be resigned and becomes a FA.

I'd say Arizona or Minnesota (if AP is healthy), he is a FA so it is his choice. Miami or Washington migh throw more jack at him, but I'd say he wants to play for a team that could turn it around very quickly.

I feel Peyton likes a nice warm place to play. So, either a dome team or warm weather city.

I also think he wants to go somewhere and compete for a SB next year. NYJ are a QB away. Miami and Arizona, imo, are not. Especially the Dolphins.

NY is in no way that close. Their coach is why. Not that he won't go ther

Good QB play, if Manning can provide it, gets that team 12+ wins next season, imo.

a healthy manning gets any team in the league to the playoffs.

I would love to see him go to New York and absolutely stick it to the Colts.

Taking Andrew Luck instead of resigning Manning and getting 3 first rounders and a couple 2nd rounders for the #1 pick will end up going down as an all-time bad front office decision if they do it.

If somehow the Colts win a game and the Rams don't, then that pick, for the Rams franchise, would be worth, roughly worth, three (first-round picks) and two (second-rounders), maybe four first-round picks. And so there's a huge amount at stake if somehow the Colts -- who will continue to try to win games -- win another game, the Rams lose their two games and somehow come up with that pick.

If Manning is cut ,You can never rule out Jerry Jones and the Cowboys.

I saw somewhere that they are like 5th best odds to sign him.

The cowboys biggest concern is on defense and the oline. Spending money on manning wouldn't be smart.

if the colts can get to the playoffs and win a super bowl with peyton manning, the cowboys could win the super bowl every year for as long as peyton is healthy. that is what i believe.
