Wow

Per @AllbrightNFL, the Broncos attempted to trade Peyton Manning to the Texans multiple times. That's telling in so many ways.

Or maybe he hates giving up assets for a guy with an arm that's about to fall off.

would have been a terrible move by both. Texas still building and Denver's window is closing.

Would have made Houston an instant contender, but I wonder what they would have needed to give up for it. Not to mention, they likely get 1 maybe 2 years with Peyton at a huge salary.

Denver is in that GB with Favre mode (Osweiler isn't Rodgers) where they know they likely won't win with him at this age but slams the door with their chances if traded. Not to mention being a horribly unpopular move.

I'll take him today over any QB the franchise has ever had.

If the Broncos are trying to trade him, it's clearly a trap. They think he's done, and they are trying to get whatever they can.

I'm sorry but what would make the Texans not take the trade? Only reason is if it included watt. No one else would be off the list.

They probably asked for JJ watt or something silly like that. I wish the Texans had made a play for him when he was leaving Indy.

Definitely. No way Texans pass that up unless Watt is involved.

Exactly. Especially since they can offer Peyton a dome where his arm isn't going to freeze off.

Dome stadium with a good defense and solid offensive weapons? Peyton would thrive

I bet the Broncos were asking for picks. A year from now, you'd be regretting losing those picks.

Peyton looked so terrible at the end of last year. So terrible.

Probably multiple 1's and players. Peyton can't take the Broncos to the SB at this point, he's definitely not taking the Texans. Why mortgage the future if you can't get that?

Meh

Old Andre Johnson and I'm not sold on Hopkins. Peyton would make them look better but that's not an exciting receiving corps for a QB IMO
