Where would Peyton Manning play besides Indianapolis?
January 12th 2012 03:42
I got to thinking about what teams would be a good fit for Peyton Manning if he leaves the Colts. What teams other than the Colts that Manning may want to play for. First I don’t think Peyton Manning will leave the Indianapolis Colts, I think he is done and will retire before next season.
If Peyton Manning does return from injury I think he would play one more season for the Colts while Andrew Luck sits on the bench. I did find it interesting however that Archie Manning hinted that neither Luck nor would Peyton Manning enjoy the scenario. If the Colts don’t draft Andrew Luck to appease Peyton Manning then they are crazy. Manning was slipping a bit before he was injured and don’t have much time left. So I will list the teams that would be a good fit for Peyton Manning if he does leave the Colts.
New York Jets
The Jets are the team most people are saying Peyton Manning would go to. I think the Jets would do it in a heartbeat. Rex Ryan loves media attention and a healthy Peyton Manning would make the Jets a Super Bowl contender. I am not sure if Peyton Manning would want to play for Ryan. I do think the Jets would have to cut or trade Sanchez if they get Peyton Manning.
The Washington Redskins
The Redskins would actually be the best first for Peyton Manning in my opinion. My girlfriend who is a Redskins fan brought it up and I laughed it off but it makes sense. Mike Shanahan had worked well with different styles of quarterback and would make his offense fit Peyton Manning. The Redskins have a good defense and Shanahan can coach up a running game. Also the NFC East is ripe for the picking and Peyton Manning could do well with the Redskins.
Seattle Seahawks
The Seahawks are talented at most positions other than quarterback and play with great heart at times. A healthy Peyton Manning would put the Seahawks in good position to contend in 2012.
San Francisco 49ers
Jim Harbaugh and Peyton Manning teaming up would be interesting. The 49ers are very solid and would own their division against with Peyton Manning joining the team for a year. It may appeal to Manning’s sense of NFL history to join the team that Joe Montana and Steve Young had so much success with.
