As emotional as the last couple days have been, it feels good to smile about all the teams courting Peyton. It's going to be fun to watch what he does with his new team.

I agree. I will have two teams to root for next year. Going to be fun!

I thought Jim Irsay and Peyton made they best they could of a difficult situation. That probably leaves me in the minority. IMO, the press conference, both standing side by side and parting ways, showed a lot of class on both parts. I would love to see Peyton end up in a 49ers uniform with Jim Harbaugh as his head coach. Wouldn't that be something? Cap'n Comeback leading the charge from the bench and Peyton leading the charge on the field. Boy Howdy, that would be a sight for sore eyes.

Just goes to show what hard work, being loyal and great preparation could do for you. It could make you the most sought after FA in the history of the NFL. This is a good lesson for kids.

1. San Fran

2. Denver

3. Arizona

4. Miami

1. Miami

2. Arizona

3. Houston (??)

I agree, im very happy to see all these teams want him... Irsay.. 'whos da dummy now??' Before you get mad, its a quote from Major Payne.

More than anything I hope Peyton is healthy and stays that way. Good health trumps everything.

For a destination I like the JETS. All the pieces are there, and contrary to what the talking heads at espn are saying, I think that he and Rex Ryan would get along great because they already respect each other, and both are historians of the game. Their offense would be thrilled to run another 20-30 plays after practices with the best QB since Johnny U; and during games Peyton would like watching a defense that's dynamic, especially at LB and CB. He wouldn't have to throw four touchdowns to win every game.

And then there's that little fun bit about squaring off with Brady twice per year.

Peyton signing with the 49ers could guarantee another ring on his finger before he retires that's where I want him to go some place were he can continue his greatness and win another superbowl at least while the colts work through this rebuild, but could you image the headlights if Superbowl Luck vs Manning happened Luck's chance to beat the savior of Indy or Petyon's revenge haha I clearly have to much time on my hands

Luck vs Manning is unlikely but if it did, then Colts fans would get to see Peyton in the Superbowl once again AND know that the Colts team did great with the changes.

I think the 49ers are the most Super Bowl ready of all the suitors so far. I too am hoping Peyton goes to the 49ers.

Yes, I'll move it. It's taking some getting used to putting Manning threads in NFL general

Well if you move everything or everyone not a Colt you would have to move the Luck post also until he's drafted he's basically not a Colt either. Be easier to leave things alone until after the draft. JMO of course.

We battled the luck thing all season long. We recently started allowing the Luck topics in Colts section.

I was reading on a dolphins fan forum just for kicks and it does make a fan proud to see the way other fans are drooling over the prospect of signing Manning. One fan said "I just want to know what it's like". That comment really stuck with me.

Absolutely - we have have it great for more than a decade. Lucky SOBs who ever lands Manning and even luckier a healthy Manning.

      *Update: AD Mitchell signed

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Feel the need to clarify something.   The writer of the article, Bob McGinn, is one of the top-10 football writers there is.  (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) McGinn does NOT have an opinion on Mitchell.  It’s the unnamed scouts who have the negative opinions.  McGinn is quoting them which is his job.  He is supposed to do that.     Ballard even acknowledged that in his own way.  He literally said “put your name on it!”   Well, McGinn’s name IS on it.  it’s his column.   But it’s the scouts who are saying things anonymously.   If there’s an issue, (if) it’s with them, not McGinn.

      And when/if a team signs one of those safeties they’ll be made to look like a genius while Ballard is called a fool.    I think what’s more likely is that an injury will inevitably happen and a team will bring in an available free agent. That could be training camp. That could early in the season. You just never know.

      But if the Colts sign someone next week or the week after then it really doesn’t matter.    I would’ve preferred we sign some two weeks ago.   Get them familiar with the DC and position coach.   But once we didn’t then it really doesn’t matter when.  It just matters that we do it before camp opens.  At least to me.    And the fact no one else is signing these top FA safeties tells me the market just isn’t there yet.   I’m preaching a healthy dose of patients.

      How about getting a proven commodity in the FA market? I know that assumes the player wants to be here, but money talks and the Colts have some. This D needs a solid center fielder. Simmons fits that role perfectly. If he’s gettable, here’s to Ballard pulling the trigger, even if it’s a slight overpay. The team CANNOT leave this crucial position to players who have consistently underperformed in the past (Cross and Thomas).

      All - this is the real question.   What do the 32 GMs in the league know that the rest of us (we're on the outside looking in) don't know?   Answer that question and you'll have what you need to analyze the choices made by the leadership of your favorite team.
