Seriously,if the Chiefs...

[Nzoner]

somehow someway land Peyton Manning I will be done as a fan until his tenure is over.I can't really explain it except to say my dislike for him and his family runs very deep and there is no way I could ever cheer for or back him.

Anyone else have similar feelings or would you be all for seeing him in a KC uniform?

His regular season success, though, does not mean that the future Hall of Famer should be absolved from criticism for his team’s repeated failures in January.

He has racked up seven one-and-done postseason exits—the most of any quarterback in NFL history. Overall, he owns a 9-10 record in 11 playoff appearances, whereas Eli is an incredible 9-3 with two Super Bowl MVP awards.

I don't think it is.

"Can you refresh our memories on Peyton Manning’s injury? What’s wrong with Peyton Manning’s neck?

Manning has degenerative disc disease of the cervical spine. He has had three surgeries thus far in his career to control pain, weakness, and tingling in his arms. Two of these surgeries happened this year, with the first in the offseason and the second shortly after the start of the 2011 season. His last surgery was a single level anterior cervical fusion. This is where the surgeon joins together Manning’s spinal bones to create stability."

A. Every surgery is different. From what I've heard (grain of salt, I know) his neck surgery went off without a hitch and his neck feels good.

B. I doubt you have access to Peyton Manning level medical care.

"Manning had neck surgery Sept. 8, the third and most invasive procedure he'd had in 19 months. Doctors fused two of Manning's vertebrae together, hoping that would fix a damaged nerve that caused weakness in Manning's throwing arm."

I'm not sure why you think the neck and arm issues are completely independent. They are not.

I could be wrong. The way I understand it, the problem in his arm isn't just tingling associated with the neck problem. It's a problem with a specific nerve that he is trying to work out. This impression comes from friends of mine who are huge Colts/Manning fans. They are constantly harping on how people keep getting his medical status wrong cause they focus on the neck.

Again, I could be mistaken, but the sensationalist argument about him having a broken neck that keeps popping up is ridiculous in any case.

I'd take him in a heartbeat. I don't like him, I like his meddling father less. However, if he returns to what he was 2 years ago, the chiefs go to the superbowl with the weapons he would have. That is all i've wanted for the last 40 years dammit.

Peyton or no Peyton or with Cassel at QB.

I bet Panthers go farther than the Chiefs will go in a playoff run in the next 2 years.

I would bet Panthers win a playoff game before Chiefs win a playoff game in the next few years.

I just don't see Peyton coming to KC in the first place & that would be Pioli sticking with Cassel. So I'm focus on hating Cassel at the moment. I hate the #7 it is of the devil.

If the team comes back at 100% this would probably be the most talented team Manning's ever been on. At least top 3.

As some who works in the newsroom at an Indy television station, I will tell you the overall feel is that Peyton is going to retire. One good pop to that neck and he could be paralyzed. He has more money than he is every going to need, a SB ring, a hall of fame career, and two brand new babies. Absolutely no reason for him to risk being a vegetable.

Personally, don't care either way, but since every other story we've done for the last six months is about his neck (don't know where this arm tingly crap comes in, we sure the hell haven't reported it) thought I would share what our sports folks say.

[Hammock Parties]

Archie Manning tells YSR's @CNotesbyCraig he isn't sure if Peyton will B able 2 play in @NFL next season & "we'll just have 2 wait & see."

If his neck injury doesn't stop him completely or bring his level of play down too far( and the colts commiting to Luck could be a tell tale sign of this), then I'd want no other QB beside Peyton. All The Chiefs would really have to do at that point is sign some O-line men and The Chiefs would be a great offensive team . And with the way The Chiefs defense has looked lately....

[Bump]

I'm all for Peyton Manning coming here. QB and 2 or 3 other positions are the missing pieces to the puzzle. We are a good team as a whole, especially with JC, TM and EB coming back (if they can recover). Throw Peyton Manning, assuming he would be healthy enough to play, we are an instant Superbowl contender. DO IT! But we would need to draft someone in the 2nd round probably if the value is right.

I had a phase where I despised Peyton Manning. To start, I hated the fact that he was a Colt. I have hated the Colts since the "kicker who doesn't deserve a name" game and my hatred for Manning was full-fledged after that shootout playoff game between him and Trent Green. However, I watched him on Saturday Night Live and thought he was hilarious. So at this point, I hate the fact that he is a Colt, but like him to an extent because he seems funny.

I stopped reading when someone suggested we hire their HC to be our OC...we have some serious morons on this board.

I found that amusing as well. Who needs an OC when you have Manning anyway?
