March 7, 201214 yr Every team that shows an interest in Manning is casting a degree of no confidence in their current QB. For example the Jets, they have enough issues with their pompous head coach, colorful players, and lack of production from Sanchez. Of course everyone always defends Sanchez but showing interest in Manning is anything but confidence in Sanchez. The list goes on: Seahawks, Broncos, 49ers, Dolphins, Redskins, etc. Your thoughts?
March 7, 201214 yr How is it showing lack of confidence if you bring in a guy who might be able to take you to the Super Bowl? Do you think that any of those teams mentioned have a guy that can do that?
March 8, 201214 yr Author Is it different than any other FA on the market? I think it is. Teams use several players at other positions but only one at QB. In other words, say you bring in a FA CB, most teams use three or four CBs each game.
March 8, 201214 yr Author How is it showing lack of confidence if you bring in a guy who might be able to take you to the Super Bowl? Do you think that any of those teams mentioned have a guy that can do that? You just made my point. Lots of us fans think that (those teams don't have very good QBs) but using the Jets as an example they have stuck by Sanchez, however, if they entertain the thought of bringing Manning in it shows us all the confidence in Sanchez was nothing but a charade.
March 8, 201214 yr There hasn't been a free agent like Peyton at this age ever. Any team could use him, his 4th quarters come backs are special. Tom Brady is safe/Drew Brees/Eli/maybe a young QB Falcons/Bengals, but any other team might get Peyton. Dallas/San Diego/I wouldn't blame them. This is gonna be fun the next few weeks.
March 8, 201214 yr Sanchez is not a QB that the Jets should show confidence in. He has not shown that he is progressing to the point that you can win a Superbowl with him. I would argue that the Jets tried to make the team into a Sanchez-led operation this year and missed the playoffs because of it. So, if Mark Sanchez has a problem with pursuing Peyton then he should perform consistently and then the Jets wouldn't have to look at him.
March 8, 201214 yr I'd take Manning at 75% over the majority of QBs in the league. All the QBs from teams that were listed are sorry. So what if you hurt the feelings of Matt Moore or Rex Grossman, there a plenty of QBs cut from the same cloth available if PM doesn't pan out.
March 8, 201214 yr Eric Stangel @EricStangel BREAKING NFL: Out of habit, Archie Manning just went on the record to say Peyton will never play for the #Chargers
March 8, 201214 yr I think for teams like the 49ers, Jets, Ravens to go after Manning is dumb and detrimental. All of their qbs should get better and are young enough and experienced enough to one day see greater success.
March 8, 201214 yr Author No matter how much they say publicly that Mark Sanchez is their man, the New York Jets are wasting no time in at least exploring the possibility of dumping their man in favor of Peyton Manning. Jets have already inquired about Peyton Manning | ProFootballTalk
March 8, 201214 yr Author I realize Peyton is a better option than what any of those teams have my point is only one team is going to end up with Peyton and the rest of them are going to end up with hard feelings and dissension in the ranks.
March 8, 201214 yr I don't understand why teams who have qbs that led them to their respectable conference title games would look for another qb. Bum puzzles me.
March 8, 201214 yr I don't understand why teams who have qbs that led them to their respectable conference title games would look for another qb. Bum puzzles me. Deciding between Mark Sanchez and Peyton Manning is not hard PP92. With that said, I don't think Peyton will go to New York.
