Seahawks willing to spend big for Peyton Manning
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...eyton-manning/
Report: Seahawks willing to spend big for Peyton Manning Posted by Michael David Smith on March 7, 2012, 9:18 AM EST The NFL’s wealthiest owner may be willing to give a sizable chunk of his wealth to Peyton Manning. The Seattle Seahawks are planning to “come out checkbook blazing” for Manning, a source tells Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork.com, who is also reporting that the Jets will check Manning out. Seahawks owner Paul Allen has a net worth estimated at $13.5 billion, making him about $10 billion richer than the second-wealthiest NFL owner, Stephen Ross of the Dolphins. So from Allen’s perspective, money will not be an issue. The Seahawks are right in the middle of the NFL in terms of how much cap space they have available, so getting a deal done under the cap shouldn’t be an issue either. Whether the Seahawks are the right fit for Manning from a football perspective remains to be seen, but from a financial perspective, it sounds like the Seahawks would be willing to make him a competitive offer. |

In every city that wants to land Manning every sports radio and newspaper columnist today is laying out why their city is the one Peyton will choose. And every city honestly believes they are the one. This will be interesting to watch.
I'm guessing Greg Williams is pretty happy to see Manning consuming every headline from here on out.

From all i've read, money isn't the driving force for Peyton.
he's gonna go with the team he thinks can contend right away. the owner that wants his stadium filled more will be the winner here. Go Get em' Clark.

This seems like the last place he would go. He wants another ring and any other team would match Seattle's best offer

I like their chances of getting there a lot better than Oakland's.

Seattle is a big money city, This move would make sense to me, also remember, since he was released, his contract is void so they can give him 20 million guaranteed and pay him the league minimum for a 14 year old vet as a salary.

If it weren't for 2 blocked FG's you would have.
This division is so tight any number of small events being different and any of the 4 teams could have won. The difference between worst and first was ONE ****ING GAME...

I'm not saying KC should have won the division. I'm saying one game was what kept EVERY team other than Denver winning the division.
There is no suck or great in this division - every team is mediocre...
