Manning should sign with the Vikings if he comes back. Awesome running game, top 5 scoring defense, and a brand new INDOOR stadium.


I think they like Bridgewater too much. It would have to be a team that thinks it has all the pieces to win a super bowl minus a QB, and I just don't see it. You would have to pay him $12M to $15M for one year only. What does that get you? He's not putting any teams on his back anymore.

This is his final year. I think the NFL knows it and I think you will see him get the Jerome Bettis/Ray Lewis farewell referee bias to go out on top...hopefully.

I think it is probably already sealed.

Not that it will happen but a super bowl win and he's done, makes it to the super bowl and lose unembarrisngly I also think he's likely done. Lose in the championship game or get blown out in super bowl and I have no clue what he will do

Really I think if he makes the super bowl he will hang it up

You guys are talking about Manning winning the Super Bowl for fricks sake. 

Rex Grossman and company ain't walking out that tunnel again folks.


And why is that relevant? The bears were NFC champs. He beat Brady in the AFC CG. I'd say that's a well earned super bowl.

He can thank Brady and the Pats for taking out the best team in football that season

I don't get your point. The chargers lost to 3 teams that season, which were the ravens, chiefs and patriots. The Colts beat all those teams during the playoffs.

Just pointing out that if it wasn't for the Pats, the Colts would have had to go on the road and beat the best team in football. Which they probably wouldn't have done.
