DEVILS ALL THE WAY · 03-06-2012, 02:08 PM

If it would've happend to any other team in the league, I'd say the same thing. Because it so happens to be my team, I'm a homer?

Good job fellas

You should know how it works by now.

Oh, I do... it's just sad to see that it's coming from solid posters and not your everyday troll.

Paying players to injure players is as bad as it gets. It's not that difficult to understand dude.

Peyton Manning and Colts are parting ways.

Let the Peyton watch begin.

Seeing Peyton in another jersey is going to feel sacrilegious.

Zajacs Bowl Cut · 03-07-2012, 08:07 AM

hard not to be excited as a Dolphins fan

NJDevs26 · 03-07-2012, 08:57 AM

In a way, it's amusing that my last image of him as a Colt is looking bewildered on the sidelines after Caldwell called that idiotic timeout against the Jets in the playoffs.

Ripshot 43 · 03-07-2012, 09:18 AM

I think it will be one of the "off the radar" teams that swoop in and sign him. I take the much talked about Redskins right out of the equation... I just don't see it happening. I'd love to see him go to a team that has everything but a QB.

Zajacs Bowl Cut · 03-07-2012, 09:32 AM

I just don't see why he would want to go to Washington

that team is devoid of receiving threats

Jersey Man · 03-07-2012, 09:35 AM

Anywhere but the NFC is good for me.

My pick: Houston or Miami.

MartyForVezina · 03-07-2012, 09:49 AM

50,000 plus pages of evidence against the Saints...

I'm hoping for fines and forfeit of all 2012 draft picks. One thing is for sure, Goodell is gonna hit New Orleans square in the jaw for this; he seems beyond pissed.

Regarding Peyton, I'll guess Arizona or the Jets.

I agree, keep him out of the NFC, I don't want to deal with that. Houston or Miami is perfectly fine by me.

DEVILS ALL THE WAY · 03-07-2012, 10:39 AM

There's no way Houston is going to snub Matt Schaub in favour of Manning, who's still a question mark.

He'll land on a team that's in desperate need of a starting Qb who doesn't have a stud rookie waiting in the wings.

If I had to guess, I'd say one of Miami, KC, Arizona are my top #3 picks and the Jets are my massive wildcard.

DatBoyJPP · 03-07-2012, 10:39 AM

My guess for Peyton is Tennessee or Miami

apice3 · 03-07-2012, 10:48 AM

Last year I said Redskins.

Right now I'm saying Miami, although my dark horse is retirement.

Miami just makes so much sense. Warm weather city that he won a Super Bowl in, with an elite WR and a good defense. Stays in the AFC so he can play the Colts once a year (NFL will schedule a Colts game every year because ratings will be through the roof.) Also gets to take the AFC East crown from his rival Tom Brady.

Plus if he brings a Super Bowl to the city, he could become more beloved than Marino.

DatBoyJPP · 03-07-2012, 10:58 AM

NFL doesn't pick games. You 16 games are 6 in diviision, 4 from AFC division, 4 from NFC division and 2 equals from the divisions in your conference you don't play.

So for the Giants next year:

Washington x2
Dallas x2
Philly x2
the entire NFC South
the entire AFC North
And the 2 comparison games are Green Bay and SF since they all won their divisions

The reason the Colts played the Pats every year is because they kept winning their divisions

NJD1982 · 03-07-2012, 10:59 AM

They said Peyton has a house in Florida, my guess is he goes to Miami.

DatBoyJPP · 03-07-2012, 11:12 AM

I bet a large majority of NFL players have summer homes in Florida

MartyForVezina · 03-07-2012, 11:12 AM

I really don't see peyton playing for a team that doesn't have a promising future WITHIN the next three years.

apice3 · 03-07-2012, 11:17 AM

As a Colts fan, this conference is hitting pretty hard right now. Kind of saw it coming from a mile away, but you can't really brace for it actually happening.

Richer's Ghost · 03-07-2012, 11:32 AM

tears be a rollin'

it feels like a mutual breakup at this point more than someone getting dumped. kinda glad

the NFL just doesn't schedule random games. the schedule is set. you play your division (6 total), 1 AFC division (4 total), 1 NFC division (4 total) and the teams in the other 2 divisions in your conference that finished in the same place as you (2 total)

Yeah I thought the two extra games was dictated my the NFL. My mistake.
