26CornerBlitz Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 John Elway's stats from his first Super Bowl win in the "Elway vs Favre" bowl: 12/22 123 YDS 0 TD 1 INT Stats are for losers. Terrell Davis says "Hello!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) Well yeah. That's the point. It's a team game, unless Peyton Manning is involved. Then it's bad to win as a team. Early in Brady's career the Patriots* were the ultimate team, winning with defense and lucky bounces. It's funny to me, that's all.

Chuck Wagon Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Manning has that 2nd ring, now he wants to wash the taste of being a game manager type QB out of his mouth. I doubt it works out well, sadly. But I'll certainly watch! I think it will be LA. They reportedly have interest, they have a sick defense and some great offensive weapons, and Peyton could play Seattle twice to get some measure of revenge. I think it'll be LA as well. From some of the comments from the Rams it seems they are taking a Broncos style approach to building a defense first team and now with Gurley they really just need a QB who can manage the game and get them in the right plays. Plus, "Peyton Manning" sells tickets and generates fan interest a lot better than "Case Keenum" in a brand new major market. With a 2nd team coming soon, the Rams really need to hit the ground running, whichever team is better is going to have a major advantage in winning fans in LA.

Chandemonium Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Assuming he's cut, what are the chances he wants to keep playing but no team is willing to sign him, or if they are he only gets interest as a backup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papazoid Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 breaking news from leadership gathering at the Florida Forum on Wednesday night: "Many of you have probably heard that I have a significant announcement to make, so I thought I'd go ahead and make it with all of you here tonight," Manning said. "Papa John's is offering 50 percent off tonight through Friday."I'm sure that was the response you were looking for." http://abc7chicago.com/sports/peyton-manning-jokes-about-impending-decision-but-offers-no-insight/1228792/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 It's sad to see players go beyond their years. The guy is filthy rich, will land any tv contract he wants, is a first round automatic HOF entrant and can go out absolutely on top so why risk any of this?

Dorkington Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Manning's "SB winning" stats: 38/61, 1 TD, 2 INT I wish we had a QB with those numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 First it was: Manning sucks because, sure he has all the STATS but what about RINGS? Rings are for winners, stats are for losers! Then: Well, the rings he "won" don't count because his STATS weren't good enough! LOL When does Big Ben give back his 1st Super Bowl ring due to insufficient stats? I want to watch the ceremony, if there is one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Both the Rams and Texans have 45 and 42 mil in cap sapce who have a run game, and a good defense. The Texans have said through back channels they are not interested. I've already said i thought he would retire, but by him not talking until now leads me to believe he is trying to see if one of these solid teams needing a QB want him. Why not from his perspective check it out first before you make the announcement? i don't know why not to leave on top as he's not going to have the same luck twice. It's like Johnny Unitas or Broadway Joe hanging on too long. I never fault a guy for continuing to build his wealth so if he wants to do it, fine with me. i just wouldn't do it. Retire when you jsut won the SB. Just like Elway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 @JamesPalmerTV The Broncos haven't told Peyton Manning they'll cut him if he doesn't retire. Will allow him to decide his future & they'll go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
