What if Colts/Broncos make the playoffs?

[bap1331]

and Andrew and Peyton saw each other face to face. What would it be like?

[The Fish]

It would be 2014 and we'd have hover cars, and I'd be a million dollars richer.

[willysp]

Probably a friendly hello. Remember that their dads are friends.

[FireJimCaldwell]

The Sheriff meeting the Deputy?

[Blackhawk4]

North Korea would declare war on South Korea and then chickens would take over the world.

[Carlos Danger]

I'd just refer to the espn clip where Gruden asks A. Luck about playing #18... Manning's game face can peel the varnish off a locker... There might be a polite handshake involved, but that will be the extent of the formalities until after the the game clock expires... QBs aren't on the field at the same time, but we've all seen Manning intimidate the opposing team's players and coaches into making epic mistakes on offense... If Luck plays Manning in the playoffs next year (chances=slim to none) I hope he learns a thing or two about killer instinct and perseverance. If they face each other in 2013 or later, I hope Luck teaches Manning a thing or two about avoiding interceptions in big games.

[Andy]

It would probably be the best QB showdown in years. I would like to see Gruden commentate that game... he would have a heck of a reaction to just about everything.

[HarassedOffTheSite]

A some point I expect we will dispatch the Manning led Broncos in the playoffs.

[Gavin]

It would be great for us fans and the media and ratings, I would be rooting for my Colts all the way though

[FanFromtheWasteland]

Would probably top the old Colts vs Pats coverage

[18 to 44]

Hope it happens. That means both teams made the playoffs!! Great fun to watch. Kinda like when the 49ers and Young met the Chiefs and Montana!(Though that was in the regular season.)

[Blackhawk4]

Yea...about that....Manning would probably be retired the day we face the Broncos in the playoffs again

[CR91]

LETSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS GET READY TO RUMBLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Kenny]

I wouldnt know what to do with myself honestly that whole day till the game would be nerve racking

[mark5362]

We do have a home game with denver next year http://www.johnnyroadtrip.com/schedules/nfl_future_afcs.htm

[Fx Stryker]

I would just watch the game. Be happy with whoever wins.

Definitely making prime-time. Can only imagine the headlines.

[oldunclemark]

Like Lebron vs. Kevin Durant!

Too soon?

[Peytonparker]

Manning would probably do to us what he used to do to the Broncos in the playoffs

[Smonroe]

That's what I was thinking. I was just hoping our CB's are improved before we face him. He'd pick our guys apart.

[MAC]

Like Lebron vs. Kevin Durant!

Uh, no.

How about Chris Paul versus Anthony Davis.

[oldunclemark]

Uh, no.

How about Chris Paul versus Anthony Davis.

wow..that an insult to Luck... (and Manning, actually)

[MAC]

Perhaps in Indy. It took years of Colts/Pats matchups to develop the massive national attention that they had. Manning/Luck would be more like Manning/Manning. An easy hook for the networks, but not exactly the same as two HOF bound SB winning QBs meeting for the umpteenth time.

[oldunclemark]

ESPN would have Skip Bayless and Stephan A Smith do their show from Bob Irsay's garage...

[MAC]

[SilentHill]

it would be an epic win for the colts :-)

[Qwiz]

and Andrew and Peyton saw each other face to face. What would it be like?

[The Peytonator]

Bad GIF file.

Was supposed to be the face melting scene from Indiana Jones......not sure if forum-appropriate.

[TKnight24]

The Broncos wouldn't Win. Defense isn't that Great anymore just their LB Core. Luck would pick their secondary apart. And the Broncos average O-Line wouldn't protect Peyton against the NEW & Improved Indy pass rush IMO

[Jules]

If this current pretend game happens then our TEs can pull a Gronk/Hernandez and we make smoke come out of that D while an aging Champ Bailey keeps himself busy on Reggie Wayne.

On the defensive side of the ball we hope and try to make Manning ignore the run and have another playoff game where he throws nearing 40+ times.

Well the obvious parallel is a superb player facing his former team after a traumatic parting, and facing the overwhelming #1 pick who replaced him as the face of the franchise.

A closer parallel specifically for Manning if you factor in "place in the history of the sport" would obviously be Kobe Bryant or Tim Duncan. Please don't associate him with the jerk in Miami.

Davis makes a fine parallel with Luck, because nobody has a clue what his future will be. Kevin Durant is already a perennial MVP candidate. Anthony Davis is "the overwhelming choice to be selected number 1". How is that an insult to Luck?

they'd be laughing and hugging...

They dont have to hit each other...

[oldunclemark]

Not really. Durant was ganged up.

It was more like Lebron, Bosh, Wade, and Miller vs. Durant...lol

OKC was like the Colts in the early part of the last decade...

Flying through the air.....but not quite there

[ColtsFTW]

I would just watch the game. Be happy with whoever wins.

Definitely making prime-time. Can only imagine the headlines.

[Warhorse]

What if it happened and and it was just another important game on the schedule?

[lollygagger8]

Man that'd be tough.....

Would our D be foaming at the mouth to actually get to sack Manning for once instead of having to stop everytime in Practice?

[Restored]

Colts will be down by 4 with 2:18 left and the ball at their own 18. Luck leads the drive for the win and the world ends thereafter.
