Manning no longer The Man
 

Interesting take by the DP about Manning and Kubiak

Also the last paragraph sounds eerily familiar

I bet he has enough gas in the tank to sweep the Chiefs one more time.

Elway - Davis
Manning - Anderson

It wasn't meant to be if Elway had a hand in it..

Another good clip.

LMAO

We were such a layup

Well, he didn't do much to beat the Chiefs these last 2 games. Chiefs lost those because of, well, you know why...

And, I'm fine either way ... lets just get to the point that I know which QB I'm cheering for in 2015.

After watching Beady and Luck in the playoffs, manning should just hang em up. He's not close to those two

or pretty much for as long as he wants.

Who is beady?....

2-8 against Denver in five seasons.

I'm surprised we won two games.

Nice. You seem it.

I hope they bring back Tebow, just for you LMAO

To backup osweiler? Sure. Maybe Orton will unretire for them. Cutler going to be available? What is Brian Griese doing these days? LMAO

I'll worry about the QB situation later...

Even if he's a shadow of his Colts self, I would still be happier if Manning retired. Playoffs aside, he's better than 90% of QBs in the league, especially if the injury excuse was real this year.

If the Broncos cut Manning or if he retires, it's $5M in dead money next year and that's it - not too shabby.

Once a Champion always a Champion.

Osweiler is dog shit

Remember back when it was just Elway & R. Smith. The Broncos were always a RB away from finishing the job.
Until TD exploded on the scene. Everyone, including me figured that was all they needed & it ended up being that way. Stack the box, fine, our passing game will gash you. We know how that ended.


As soon as CJ started tearing it up I immediately thought back to Elway - Davis and figured CJ would carry 5 head to at least Foxborough.

So it took 2 full seasons to finally dial up a defense to force throws outside the numbers...wow.
I have just enough knowledge about the minute aspect of pro football, enough to made a butt out of myself. But why did it take so long to dial up a game plan. I realize he was hurt, but he's been hurt for more than a few games.

Will the Colts D plan only work if 5head has a bum leg?

So, when was it just Elway and Rod Smith looking for that lone RB? I think you need to go back and review your history a touch... you're forgetting some key details.

I loved seeing the Donks choke again. Manning is hurting his legacy-pretty obvious he is only playing for stats and money at this point. Probably one of the worst Post season QB's ever.

That being said-Chiefs are saddled with Alex for another year. So I am guessing 6-10 with another sweep to the Donks. Alex chokes in EVERY big game he has played for us-I don't see it changing next year.

Peyton Ning!

this has to be fake. Clay has assured us all that Smith is incapable of throwing a ball past 4 yards.

Alex who?

Alex ****ing Smith that's WHO!

Kubiak is in a no win position here. If Manning stays, I don't think they even make the playoffs next year.

:thumb: You may be right!

LMAO

Well, can't wait to cash in on this future bet.

Peyton Manning and Tom Brady win their divisions no matter what. It's like clockwork.

Manning will find a way to win 12 games. Seems like he's generally fine for at least half of a season these days.

I think he should hang them up ... people are already starting to think this is the real Peyton Manning

he can't throw the ball well anymore ... father time hit him ... nothing to be ashamed of

but his Chad Pennington arm isn't how he should be remembered ... back in his Colts prime he had an amazing arm, amazing accuracy ... dude was just the perfect QB

Until the typical Post Season Choke. :thumb:

Dude-order a Papa John's pizza and rub one out to Manning's highlights-whatever it takes so you stop posting this shit-lol

This is a ****ing Chiefs board-not a Colts or donks board-**** Manning!!

Running backs fall off a cliff at the age of 30. QB's at 38. Manning is done.

He's too close to too many records. He'll play 1 more year. I'm totally calling him Peyton Ning from now on though because of this thread.

:spock:

Hard to blame him for coming back to break all the records. If you can't have the super bowl wins you might as well have the numbers...

Yep. And it'll be good for our team and this fanbase to get monkey off our backs. I believe we will too.

I'm praying we see the Chiefs that stomped a hole in New England & Seattle most of the year next year!

It depends. If he looks like he did the last two months? Maybe.

If he reverts back to 2013 or early 2014 form? It'll be an uphill climb.

I do think, pending a few good free agents and a decent draft class, we can compete with them for the division ... which is something I did not believe coming into this year.

I just think it's foolish to assume a Peyton Manning team is suddenly going to be a 6 win team. People like to draw conclusions based off of small sample sizes.

They found ways to win despite how he looked. Nothing is set in stone, but I think we'll improve enough to beat them. We'll see.
