Kansas City radio host says Chiefs, Condon have spoken about Peyton Manning
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...eyton-manning/
Posted by Mike Florio on February 23, 2012, 5:06 PM EST The news of lingering neck problems that eventually would result in season-ending surgery for Peyton Manning first arose via a couple of Indianapolis radio hosts. And so it’s fitting, we suppose, that the first semi-concrete report regarding Manning’s next destination would come from a Kansas City radio host. Bob Fescoe of 610 Sports writes via Twitter that he is “[h]earing” the Chiefs and agent Tom Condon “have spoken twice” about Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, and that Fescoe is “told” the financials are a “good fit” for the Chiefs. Technically, no team may talk to Peyton or Condon until the Colts release Manning. But tampering happens all the time at this time of the year, and it becomes nearly blatant at the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. Manning makes sense for the Chiefs for various reasons. They have more than enough cap space, a relatively strong defense, a great young running back in Jamaal Charles, and competent receivers (who’d look a lot better with Peyton Manning throwing the passes). Last year, even after Charles, safety Eric Berry, and tight end Tony Moeaki were lost early to torn ACLs, the Chiefs pulled it together and nearly pulled off a second straight AFC West title. The fact that the Chiefs play in the AFC West would make Peyton’s path back to the postseason easier than elsewhere. With the AFC West teams playing the AFC North and NFC South teams in 2012, eight or nine wins will likely once again result in a playoff berth. Apart from the Ravens (home), Bengals (home), Steelers (away), Browns (away), Falcons (home), Panthers (home), Buccaneers (away), and Saints (away), the Chiefs play the Bills in Buffalo and, yes, the Colts at Arrowhead Stadium. And so, 19 years after the Chiefs acquired Joe Montana for a late-career second act, it’s time to add the Chiefs to the list of teams that possibly could provide Peyton Manning with a place to chase another Super Bowl title. Or two. |

You get that draft and just Manning and Bowe and I would be a happy camper.

Interdasting.
Cap space plus surrounding talent does seem like a perfect fit. All HandBowenana would know is ball, good, and rape. |

Hell if we could scrounge up the money to franchise Carr with those guys, I'll take that team. I dn't think there is anyway Carr is a Chief next yera but who knows. If it was down to Carr or those free agents, I know which way I'm leaning. |

I have to wonder how the league office won't look suspiciously on tampering.

I would have no problems whatsoever (assuming he's healthy) with him passing the ball in a Chiefs uniform. Don't think it will happen but....

Well, that would certainly be competition.
I still take the "I'll believe it when I see it" approach. |

At bare minimum, he can at least show Cassel the ropes on hat tossing.

The defense, while not perfect, should be more than adaquate to win a lot of ballgames with that offense. Especially if Houston takes his game up another level across from Hali. |

I'm gonna go to bed tonight and jerk off to this idea that a healthy Peyton Manning is the QB in KC.
