It's a part of the game, unfortunately, whether there is an actual payout or not. Certain players are going to do their darnedest to hurt key players on other teams. It's been happening for a long, long time. In the eighties, there was a Packer that kept a hit list on him for when they played the Bears.

Bounty issue... The Saints are going to eventually get what is coming to them for the stupidity.
As for Peyton, well what could I say. Any guy that can be of his stature and can wave at me while I drive by giving him a wave at grocery store, is awesome.
As for where he goes, I wish for the Rams... but I will say.... Either Miami, Houston, or San Francisco.

Well, my little brother (the household sports expert) tells me that the Dolphins, Cardinals and Browns would be the three most likely candidates. As a Steeler fan, I don't want to see him with the Browns (think what the AFC North would be like!), but he might go well with the dolphins, and would certainly do well with the Cardinals and Larry Fitzgerald. I can't see him with the 49ers or any team that went better than 10-6, simply because he has an amazing amount of talent and would be very costly to sign, but it is still questionable as to whether he can play at the same level he did before. It will be interesting to see how he performs with his new team, if he gets one.
On a different note, I think that after he is done being a player, he will go into coaching. He has amazing leadership skills, is smart, and charismatic.

And the Dolphins have lots of cap room and a dome for summer practice. Good center and left tackle. After that...
All the Matt Flynn talk kind of irks me; you want how much for someone who's played 2 games...Seriously? I get it, he's played under Philbin, but that doesn't necessarily translate to any lasting success just because he practiced for three years under him.

I'm surprised to hear on Around the Horn and Pardon the Interruption talking about my Texans being a good landing spot for Peyton Manning. There was talk about P. Manning and domed stadiums. My problem with this is... if the Texans pick up Peyton Manning (let's pretend they do), does that mean Matt Schaub has to go, or maybe even get rid of Matt Leinart? Or what about one Jake Delhomme? I think having Peyton Manning for the Texans would give the Texans a great veteran QB in their depth chart.
Peyton Manning is going to make somebody's team a good percentage better whomever he signs with.
I don't really have too much to say on the Saints' bounty deal. A lot of the old school types are more along the lines of "that's football. What makes this sort of violence any different?" I just don't really have much to say or comment on this.

I would love to see Peyton in a Redskins uniform, however I actually think that would be a bad move. For one, lets say he plays 5 more seasons, then retires. We'd be back to where we are at now. The Redskins in the past have put to much emphasis on free agency and not enough focus on drafting. Instead of trying to grab Manning, we should instead draft a QB that is a good pocket passer that can read coverages and make plays. The only areas we should focus on in free agency is our offensive line and cornerbacks. That's my opinion, anyway.
Well, they might be dumb then...

I saw that the Broncos were interested in Manning, and all I could think of was:
Tebow: Provide national sensation, win first Denver playoff game in a few years.
Elway: I guess we will stick with him going forward.
...
Elway: "Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down..."
Just seems like they aren't giving Tebow a fair shake here, if they're gonna boot him after the security he was given after the season. If, if, if, they get Manning, which I bet they won't

Peyton is a class act, I wish him the best.

Somehow, I don't imagine much more than 3 good years out of him; it would be foolish to sign him to a five-year contract.
Owners rarely give teams/coaches/personnel five years to turn anything around, in any sport, in this day and age, unless it's an expansion team. Heck, most stadium naming rights barely last that long.

So tired of the Manning story. Yes he is a first ballot hall of famer, yes he is one of the best ever qb's but his release from the Colts should have been done a long time ago. I wish him P. Manning well and I hope that his neck can withstand another year or three of being sacked..
