Pioli obviously has a bad reputation

At the end of the day, dude just wants to go play for either Elway or for Whisenhunt, and Elway has more money and will bring in his buddies.

The biggest issue this or other organizations who would like to talk to Manning have is that we don't have one of Manning's buddies in charge. Oh well. Let's develop our own damn QB for once instead of going after someone else's leftovers...

Seattle is nowhere near a SB contender like KC is w/ Manning at QB. Not even close. That team has problems everywhere.

If Manning is the competitor that we all think he is, and wants to win another SB before he retires, there's 2 teams that are above all else in terms of the best path to get there.

HOU - Indoors, lots of talent, weakass division, great young defense.
KC - Lots of talent, weakass division, great young defense, could offer more $$ than HOU
