All the Mannings are better than Brady.
Go Colts!

Awesome... Thanks!

Who has a picture of it?

Matt Flynn will be in Miami, not Peyton
True - new Dolphin HC Philbin was with the Packers, so Flynn looks to have a pathway in. Flynn ihowever, is not Peyton Manning. Peyton will fill the often half full stadium before he throws his first pass. Flynn will not. The Dolphins ARE preparing to move heaven and earth to get Peyton if he hits the market. Flynn gives a good team a development QB. Peyton gives a good team an elite QB. Their front office knows the difference.

Well folks, Irsay, Grigson and Pagano like him. So.... I'll like him too (for now).
-
On the "age" conversation, I consider playing style a key factor. A QB like Peyton... he's not a running QB, he's taken the fewest hits of any QB I can remeber, he gets rid of the ball quickly. he keeps his body in great condition. He is the definition of a pure pocket passer, To me, his skill set is the perfect skill set for longevity. The only question is will his desire fade. I believe, if he wants to, he can play 5 more years without batting an eye.
-
He was also the DC for the 49ers from 07-10, wonder how much he had to do with that D being good?
I find it hard to imagine that he played anything but a major role in it. That 49'ers defensive is old school tough too.

Just popped op on Colts Facebook. Who's Happy - who's disappointed?
-
I voted Colts of course. If healthy, I believe he'll play 5 more years and I want it to be with a horseshoe on his helmet. Period!
The Titans, Redskins and Cardinals are missing alot of pieces still.
The Jets would put both Mannings in NY... how odd would that be?
The 49'ers need a quality play making WR, not another QB to win it all.
If he ends up on another team, right now I'd guess Dolphins. They have the D (15th overall, 6th in points allowed per game at 19.6). They have a really good O-line and some notable talent at the skill positions (Reggie Bush, Devone Bess, Anthony Fasano, Brandon Marshall) They need and want an elite QB. Enter Peyton Manning and quite possibly FA WR Reggie Wayne (Miami guy) plus the #9 pick in this years draft.

Both Pagano and Butler earned their way onto franchises with very discerning eyes for premium defensive coaches. The pedigree is strong. I like the path the Colts are on. Nice work Mr. Irsay!
-
Perhaps I should have read the whole thread, but once I read that Kravitz wrote it, I knew it was worthless, twisted crap.
-
I think this hire makes our Secondary MUCH better coached and Im sure we will bring in some players to improve the talent as well. Our biggest weakness will be vastly improved since Pagano has extensive experience coaching the secondary and was a SS himself.
No doubt. His track record speaks for itself.

I'm thrilled with this decision!
Here's his Ravens Bio; http://www.baltimoreravens.com/People/Coaches/Chuck_Pagano.aspx
Chuck Pagano, who spent three seasons as the Ravens’ secondary coach, was named defensive coordinator in January, 2011. Pagano, Baltimore’s fifth defensive coordinator in team history, leads a veteran group that finished 2010 as the NFL’s 10th-ranked unit. The vaunted defense has finished as the NFL’s No. 3 scoring defense (fewest points allowed) each of the past three seasons (2008-10). Baltimore has given up a league-low total of 16.1 points per game and permitted only 80 TDs (tied with Pit. for NFL best) in the last three years. As the team’s secondary coach, Pagano led a defensive backfield that had to adjust to a number of injuries over the past three years, including a significant loss of seven-time Pro Bowl S Ed Reed, who started 2010 on the PUP list. Even after missing the first six games, Reed still led the league with 8 INTs in only 10 games. In Pagano’s first season with the Ravens (2008), the team led the NFL with 26 INTs, including Reed’s NFL-high 9 picks. Reed, the league’s only unanimous (50 votes) All-Pro in 2008, was also coached by Pagano at the University of Miami. Reed grabbed a Miami career-record 21 INTs and blocked four punts in his four-year career under Pagano. Chuck coached the NFL’s No. 1 pass defense at Oakland in 2006 and mentored outstanding secondaries in Cleveland and Miami, prior to joining the Ravens.
2008-10: (with Baltimore)
2010: Even though he missed his first six games on PUP list, S Ed Reed still led the NFL with 8 INTs, earning his seventh Pro Bowl invite...Baltimore’s defense, which was tied for eighth with 19 INTs, finished No. 10 overall (318.9 ypg).
2009: Guided an injury-depleted secondary to a No. 8-overall ranking (tied) against the pass (207.3 ypg)...Defense ranked No. 3 overall (300.5 ypg), the seventh-straight top six finish...Reed earned his sixth Pro Bowl and added to his 13 career TDs by scoring on a 52-yard INT return vs. Cin. (10/11)...Defensive backs tallied 16 of the team’s 22 INTs and Baltimore’s turnover ratio (+10) was fourth best in the NFL.
2008: Secondary ranked No. 2 against the pass (175.5 ypg), improving dramatically from a No. 20 finish in 2007...Unit allowed only 179.7 yards per game...Reed was the NFL’s only unanimous All-Pro selection...He led the NFL with 9 INTs and scored three defensive TDs, plus another (64-yard INT-TD) in the Wild Card victory at Miami (1/4/09)...Defense finished No. 2 overall (261.1 ypg).
2007: (with North Carolina) Posted a one-year stint as the defensive coordinator/defensive backs coach, where Pagano rejoined Butch Davis (Browns and Hurricanes)…Under Pagano, the defense improved from 92nd in 2006 to 35th in 2007.
2005-06: (with Oakland) Spent two seasons as the Raiders’ defensive backs coach. 2006: Raiders led the NFL in pass defense, allowing just 150.8 yards per game, and ranked third in total defense, surrendering only 284.8 yards per contest…CB Nnamdi Asomugha was third in the NFL with 8 INTs.
2001-04: (with Cleveland) Coached the Browns’ secondary under then-head coach Butch Davis…Spent four years coaching alongside Ravens current assistant head coach/special teams coordinator Jerry Rosburg. 2003: DBs helped Cleveland tie the franchise record for allowing the fewest passing TDs (13). 2001: Under Pagano’s guidance, the Browns’ secondary accounted for 28 of the team’s NFL-leading and team-record 33 INTs, which set a new mark…Rookie CB Anthony Henry led NFL with 10 picks.
1995-2000, 1986: (with Miami)
Coached the Hurricanes’ secondary and was special teams coordinator…Pagano coached four NFL first-round DBs: Reed (Ravens, 24th-2002), Phillip Buchanon (Raiders, 17th-2002), Duane Starks (Ravens, 10th-1998) and Mike Rumph (49ers, 27th-2002)…The Hurricanes blocked a surreal 39 kicks in 59 games.

1999: DBs did not allow a passing TD in the last 27 quarters of the season, en route to a 9-4 record.
1996: Posted a single-season school-record 12 blocks.

Irsay likes him, so I like him!
Welcome Ryan Grigson

Robert Mathis is an absolute madman, stud defensive end and Reggie is still an elite Red Zone WR. Both still have gas in their tank. Only a fool would allow them to walk.

So, all of the "we MUST take Andrew Luck #1" and the "we need to lose vs Jax this week" people have a glimmer of hope....
According to the Indianapolis Star, Orlovski was not at practice today...Painter was the QB practicing w/the first string...
I'm sure it is because of Orlovski's wife having triplets...but i wonder if he makes it back in time to play this week...
I also wonder how long it will take for the "conspiracy" guys to think that Polian is planning to start Painter in a last ditch effort to secure the #1 pick?! lol
Hah! Not long..... I know Polian is behind this somehow!
Probably told DO that to spend this week with his family, because family is much more important than football. -
DT?
Not drafting high enough has always been the F.O. line on why the Colts don't have a premium DT.
Fix the LOS and locate more values like Brayton, Anderson & Sims to round out the roster.
-
Exactly he gets paid to win now not make sure we get the top draft pick so we can draft what would probably turn out to be his replacement on the roster next year.
BAM! Nailed it!
-
U can take the Raiders off. They don't have any draft picks.
Right. Of course they don't... they're the Raiders!
-
I see a number of teams that will definately be making offers to swap places with the #1 overall.
(final draft order may vary)
Rams
Colts
*Vikings
Bucs
Jags
*Browns
*Redskins
*Dolphins
*Chiefs
*Titans
*Seahawks
Panthers
Bills
Eagles
Chargers

I believe he'll be playing another 3 to 5 years, and that's from a guy with 6 bolts and 2 rods in his back!

There is lots of negative talk about Peyton and lots of people just want to brush him off and move on. I saw this video on NFL.com and thought it was great. I know that personally, I have taken what Peyton does for granted. Things like his work ethic and his preparation are things we fans don't see, but the results are something we are happy with. We have witnessed and, in my opinion, will continue to witness one of the greatest NFL careers of all time. Enjoy
Great Video! Great Post!
The video that follows it, is a quick conversation about Payton adjusting to a different offensive system, on another team.

That kid behind you has a better chance of being my backup next year than you do.

Flea market management...
Let's all take a moment to bathe in the historic performance served up by our FO & coaching staff.
Probably told DO that to spend this week with his family, because family is much more important than football.
It's Official...
