Does News Always Slip Out Before Presser?

I was just thinking that lately we have all heard the news leaks long before the Irsay press conferences but can you imagine a Irsay/Manning presser where nobody knows anything before hand and we are waiting scared or hopeful or Both at the edge of out seats? Now THAT would be a dramatic presser waiting to hear if the career of possibly the greatest player in football is over or not. Wow. I am sure that news will leak as well. Everything leaks these days.

That would certainly be interesting.

Nothing about Manning ever leaks. No one on his own team knew he was having twins, for crying out loud. People on these forums speculated for years as to whether or not he was even married.

Manning won't tell anyone associated with the media until the day it's announced, and he probably won't hold any meetings with anyone if a member of the press has access.

He's not going to know until he gets into training camp - at least.

Peyton's personal life has always been odd. Like you said about people speculating whether he was married or not. Got a buddy that worked for Zinc Distribution. Swears to this day Manning has a downtown love shack he takes jersey chasers to. He claims to know this because Zinc was called in to do a full bar setup for Manning. Like he would put his own name on the work order!?

I think for a stretch there, Manning died at least once an offseason.

    • Very well done @Archer as always. Love the idea of going QB fairly early with another one-year rental and upcoming pending FA plus health issues of AR.  Looking over our team and what I feel are the biggest needs are especially on defense.  WLB play has fallen off with Speed on a contract year.  None of our backup DTs are playing well enough to resign.  Almost at the point to dump entire RDEs and go heavy in the draft.  Nick Cross seems to be doing well at FS.  Blackmon on the other hand started hot but has been struggling.  At the mid-point in college football only one true SS that has proven himself and has my interest in Round 1.   My Mock:   Round 1 SS Lathan Ransom (OSU) he has been playing at such a high rate and watching him play against #3 Oregon he was one of two defensive players from Ohio State that has had success with their opponents.    Round 2 NT Simeon Barrow Jr. Miami (FL) 6'3" 290-pounds - After 6 weeks has an elite 84.7 grade on 173 snaps generating 17 TOTs, 4.5 TFLs, and 3.5 sacks with 14 QB pressures and has an 84.4 RDEF and an 80.6 TACK grades.  Hasn't missed a tackle on the season.     Round 3 RDEdge J.T. Tuimoloau (OSU) 6'5" 269-pounds - Would have loved taking Princely Umanmielen in Round 1 and pray Tuimoloau lasts this long in Round 3.  As I mentioned before with Ransom, Tuimoloau has been steady this season and against #3 Oregon finished with a 73.8 grade on 56 snaps.  Tyquan Lewis is injured, Dayo is a pending FA, Ebukam is also injured and nearing end of his career, and not much faith in Isaiah Land.   Round 4 DT Rayshaun Benny (Michigan) 6'4" 296-pounds - Benny's been a highlight reel this year.  Against #3 Texas earned a 74.4 grade.  Against #11 USC had an 81.2 grade.  Against Washington had a 79.1 grade.  Hoping Benny can plug and play at either DT spot.   Round 5 RDEdge Kyle Kennard (South Carolina) 6'5" 254-pounds - Kennard did struggle against #16 LSU with a 59.0 grade and missed the game against #12 Ole Miss.  He did have a decent day against #6 Alabama and has earned Midseason Third-Team All-American honors.  Refer back to Round 3 pick and team need.   Round 6 WLB Eugene Asante (Auburn) - Asante's got the coveted speed we like capable of running a 4.48s-forty with a max velocity of more than 22 mph.  Made Bruce Feldman's Freaks List at #33.   Round 7 Swing OT Grey Zabel (NDST) 6'6" 296-pounds - Zabel finished 2023 with an overall 79.3 grade as an OG and an 88.5 grade in pass protection.            
    • Sure would love to see a new TE on that list.
    • He might can be had for a third , most likely a second.
    • If we could obtain PS2 this defense SIGNIFICANTLY improves. 
    • No , roll with who we currently have. If Williams didn’t look good with A Rod throwing to him there’s no possible way he looks good with AR throwing to him. Also not to mention he just doesn’t look like he has recovered from his injury. He looks like he is playing very timid and not confident.
