Why Manning ruled out KC...

Apparently, teams were pre-qualified by Manning prior to any visits. When Condon was contacted by the 12 teams, he told them that the contract Manning was starting at was 5 for 90 and going from there.

Teams either had to say in or out at that point.

From there, Manning narrowed his selections.

I was told this from someone yesterday, and then today on Twitter, a great guy to follow, Andrew Brandt commented on it as well. I was leery about what I was told, but this guy confirmed it.

The Chiefs never got past the pre-qualified stage.

Seattle did, but when Manning narrowed his choices, the roster had no appeal.

Just thought I'd post this since we had a lot of discussions about why the Chiefs never got a face to face.

Elway has sold a ton of season tickets with this move, and jersies. But all Denver has won so far is the offseason.
Agreed. Manning hasn't won a damn thing and there is zero gaurantee he will.

only thing I don't quite agree with you here is that what you call "kicking out a fan favorite" I call "getting rid of a wildly popular QB that gave us no shot at winning a championship in the only way possible without causing a mutiny".

Yes, the disciples have denied him. Tebow is now buried and will arise again. Probably in Florida.

That is the team that should have drafted him to start with, then the Bronco's wouldn't have had that divine intervention last year.

That's just way too much coin for a 36 yr old QB coming off neck surgery.

I love the terms of this contract! All we have to do is get him hurt without hitting those specific locations on the neck and the Broncos will be on the hook for all that money. Every season we just take out his arms or legs (in a way that allows him to be healthy after the season and football) and the Broncos will cough up all that money.

Tim Tebow wants to take his talents back to Florida, according to a close friend of the unconventional quarterback.

Tebow — likely to be jettisoned by the Broncos following the signing of four-time MVP Peyton Manning — apparently prefers his next NFL destination to be the Sunshine State, where he came to fame playing for the University of Florida.

Monica Culpepper, the wife of former NFL and Florida Gators player Brad Culpepper, told 970 WFLA radio in Tampa Tuesday that Tebow was hoping to head back to familiar surroundings.

"Brad and I just had dinner with Tim last week and I don't think this comes as a shock or surprise to him that Manning was actually going to go there," Culpepper said.

"And in all honesty, Tim said, 'I miss home. I miss the South. And hopefully I'll land somewhere in Florida.'".

You are absolutely correct !

What I posted on 3/12-

Killer my man, I hate to say it but I don't think we were ever in the running as far as Peyton was concerned. But the Chiefs FO had to make the PR attempt to appease the fan base.

Think about it, why would Peyton want to come to an organization ran by a paranoid control freak GM who makes his players feel like they have to walk on eggshells and potentially be 'bugged'? Also, don't underestimate Peyton's ego to a little sensitivity about playing for a head coach "who had his number" the majority of the time. The sports media can stand back and laugh at the Jets and Miami FO fiascos right now but our Chiefs FO is not that far behind IMHO. No way in hell Pioli lets Jeff Saturday or Reggie Wayne be part of the deal or pays Peyton what he wants.

Everyone knows everyone in the NFL and has worked with everyone at some point or another and everyone talks. I assure you as sad as it is to say that the Chiefs were and never have been on Peyton's radar from the get go. Take that to the bank

Living out here in Denver, many don't realize the connections that Peyton has out here and one of those connections is one of his best friends from his college days Todd Helton who he QB'd with at Tennessee and have remained very close since. PM has come out to Denver several times a year with his family for the past 10yrs plus and stayed with Helton's family at Helton's ranch calling Denver and Helton's ranch "home away from home". He loves it out here. Don't underestimate that connection especially from a family perspective. Brandon Stokely who lives here as well is very close to Manning who Peyton wanted to see while he was here during that 30hr visit actually went to a nearby park where Stokely lived and they threw the football around 'incognito'(how that's done I don't know?).

Peyton and Elway are fairly close as well and respect each other immensely thus the kindred spirit of playing the QB pos winning SBs. Don't underestimate that. Also unlike Pioli, Elway told Manning whatever personnel you need to bring in it's a done deal.

With the yr long ongoing friction between Haley and Pioli and Pioli's alleged 'bugging' of Haley along with Pioli's reputation and couple that with Peyton's home away from home connections in Denver the Chiefs weren't even a thought in PM mind
