How many times has Manning spanked KC or Denver in the playoffs
He probably finds the AFC West too boring

[Mr_Tomahawk]

Meh....FWIW.

Chris Berman didn't say WHO he thought Peyton would play for.

But said he wasn't sure if he would want to play in Eli's division [regarding Washington] nor would he want to play in Brady's division [regarding Miami].


He didn't mention anything about other teams...but said this could be a 2+ month process for him to sign with a team.

Not at all. As unlikely as it may seem, I am hoping he busts as well.

Watch....manning signs with the jets, and then the chiefs trade their first round pick for Sanchez. Lol.

And he is surely smart enough to see the talented trio + tight end, already in place.

[KCrockaholic]

All of the media spewing random Peyton Manning things don't know any more than any of us.

They're just giving opinions because the fans want to hear them.

At this point anything Schefter, La Canfora, or Berman have to say about possible PM destinations is just hot air. Just sayin, It's too early for people to believe anything the media is saying.

Or possibly a sure shoe in for the playoffs in this weak division....

Good defense, respectable offense, average o-line, he could make it work with this franchise to chase down his little brother on the ring count. Like I mentioned in another thread, I see Peyton wanting a ring and not so much after a huge payday. He has already been paid. I believe he is after legacy now more than profit...Chiefs would fit him.

10. Kansas City Chiefs: New coach Romeo Crennel caused a stir at the combine by saying he “would be crazy not to consider” signing Manning were the quarterback to become available, which kind of sounded like tampering. In my opinion, Manning would be crazy to consider the Chiefs. Yeah, they have a big-time halfback in Jamaal Charles (coming off a torn ACL), a potential star in talented wideout Dwayne Bowe and some good players on defense, but there are plenty of reasons for Manning not to come to K.C. The first is the presence of newly hired offensive coordinator Brian Daboll – ask the Browns’ Colt McCoy how he thinks Manning might enjoy playing for such a coach. Another is general manager Scott Pioli, whose control-freak tendencies likely wouldn’t allow for a quarterback who desires near autonomy. (If nothing else Manning, were he to sign with the Chiefs, should keep his cell-phone number a secret.) I’m sure Manning is also thrilled that Pioli decided to waive veteran offensive lineman Brian Waters before the 2011 season. Waters jumped to the Patriots and made the Pro Bowl blocking for Tom Brady. Bottom line: I don’t see Manning in a Chiefs uniform, at all.

That's pretty weak.

[Dayze]

Yeah...like daboll would have a fighting chance against manning. He'd tell daboll to stfu and stfd.

What a reeruned comparison.

If that happens I won't watch another Chiefs game until the current group is gone.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

I just don't think the national media wants Manning to sign with KC because well...it's KC.

This is a pretty poor article. First off anybody with legit knowledge of KC is not upset Waters is gone considering his replacement.

Second, Pioli was with Brady for a while. I think NE has shown the 'Patriot Way' allows for the QB to do what he wants if he is elite.

Third, he did a pretty light grazing of the Chiefs talent to help make his point. I am not saying he is going to KC, but this article is pretty weak IMO.

[bricks]

Well, if anything, Pioli could be the reason the Chiefs don't sign Manning. Pioli is just simply another big head. Why would he want to give the keys to someone else to drive charge? That's just simply not Pioli's way.
