I don't care what he does when he retires... just that he does - the sooner the better ;)

 

I know you Indy fans adore him, but I am soooooo over the hundreds of PM posts and NFL Peyton hype this year.  One of the things I would love most about beating the Broncos tomorrow would be to shut that talk down. 

 

However I feel, I think Philip Rivers would disagree.  Interestingly, when Manning announced he was coming to Denver, the most excited person in the NFL was Philip Rivers.  He said that Peyton Manning coming to our division would make us instantly better and make it harder to compete for the division title making him and our team a better team.  This year's play has prepared us more for the playoffs than earlier years where we we played too soft of a schedule.

Isn't it interesting to think that a fellow who has played football as his primary vocation could one day leverage that ability to the point where he could potentially purchase a business valued at upwards of $1,000,000,000?

Ouch. Your sarcasm is biting haha

He'll be honored in some shape of form when he retires by the Colts.  In fact I would dare say he'll be honored more than once.  Probably have his number officially retired (if anyone has ever deserved that for the Indianapolis Colts it's him and it would be fitting for him to be the first one to get that honor here).  They will put him in the Ring of Honor.  There might even be a statue for him as well.  You might even see a one day contract like we did with Saturday for him to retire officially as a Colt but Colts fans better be ready if he wins a Super Bowl for the Broncos they are going to honor him too. 

 

I wouldn't be shocked if he buys a sports team either but I don't think it will be the Colts. For starters I don't think Irsay will let them out of his family and I think Peyton is going to settle in Tennessee when he retires.  He might either look into buying the Titans or maybe just buy out the Grizzles who I believe his wife already owns a part of.

He'll come back to Indy to open some Papa John's Pizza's  to choke down after his days in Denver . 

 

18 failed to go thru the Colts to get where there at :thmup:   . The Colts beat KC at home & in LOS what makes you think they can't do the same to the Broncos in Denver ? That is if the Broncos don't repeat the Ravens debacle & lose to the Chargers .

Interesting use of the word choke.

Manning's and Brady's retirements dates are not far off and that is why this coming game with the Pats might be the most critical win of all between #18 and #12 simply because if Brady goes to another super bowl win or lose it will be a shot in his arm for who was the better QB. I recall the comparisons between Bart Starr and Unitas. Unitas got the tip of the hat on that debate but the Manning/Brady issue will be argued for generations to come. Honestly after watching Seattle beat N.O. yesterday I doubt anyone will keep the SB trophy away from them but that is not the issue now. Anyway, "make it one more for my baby and one more for the road". Go get em' #18.

    • Can't keep having your safety be leading tackler. We will also lose Cross to injury if the rest of the team can't learn how to tackle.    Especially Franklin    
    • I still think the inaccuracies and the sailing of his throws is masking the progress he's made as a QB. I think decision-making-wise and when it comes to reading the defense, he's on a very good trajectory. He looks like a QB who knows what he's doing, who knows where he needs to go with the ball. He probably needs to work on his timing with the receivers a bit and he needs to be a bit quicker with his decisions at times, but overall those are things a young QB will naturally get better at with time and experience.   Just take a moment and think about it - it feels like almost every single one of his worst looking throws are throws where he went through his progression, read the defense and made the right decision. Just the throws themselves were off. Some of them WAY OFF.    Now don't get me wrong, at some point he will need to start hitting those throws because at the end of the day what's the point of reading the defense and making the right decision if you sail the ball 5 yards over the receiver's head? If he doesn't get better at that, he will bust, because no team will have the patience for a vet QB who can't hit those type of throws with any consistency. I really hope the coaching staff is working with him on it and we see some progress by the end of the season.
    • Give him the rest of the year before we make too much judgement on progress. Dude is super young and still figuring it out.     I think his footwork is poor, and he relies on his rocket launcher arm to save him w/o thinking about mechanics. When he's under pressure is when he resorts to kind of like a backyard ball approach.    I think the WR's have issue on trying to catch his fastballs, so now he's trying to throw with "touch" and underthrowing quite a bit. Though there have been a lot of dropped passes by the WR's for sure.    All these wildly sailing balls and inaccurate throws are what's concerning. Hopefully it's all correctable. (I think it is?)
