Rex Ryan staying in the east is bellicheks nightmare

It's all McDaniels fault too.

Friends, I would let amy poehler sit on my face. That is all.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

I feel like cutting Peyton Manning is crazy. I think you make the playoffs with him next season no matter what.

Past next year? Ehhh....

I think you need a solid season showing significant regression from Manning before you move on.

Are the Broncos in it to make the playoffs or win the Super Bowl?

The book has been written on Peyton Manning. He cannot win when it counts. Had to be carried to his only title.

 

[chuckddd]

After reading that Rex Ryan article that I just posted, now I'm really thinking that Dimitroff/Blank/Pioli fucked this one up.

Rex Ryan doesn't speak to the suburbs.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Broncos can let go Manning anytime he signed a 5 year 95 million non guaranteed type contract.

@TomPelissero
Peyton Manning's $19M base salary for 2015 becomes fully guaranteed if he's on the roster the last day of the league year in March.

Dude gets $19 mil if he doesn't make a decision and the team doesn't force his hand. And they still have to consider paying Welker, Thomas, etc. They don't have time.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Broncos to cut Peyton. Peyton goes to Buffalo with Rex.

Denver didn't have any intention of bringing back Welker. Thomas will have to be paid

Too Urban for Atlanta. Didn't like his thuggish demeanor or inhuman glare.

I'm not sure if going back to quarterback purgatory is the solution either.

I think the idea is to win a Super Bowl and the only way you do that is get to the playoffs and hope to get hot at the right time.

I dunno, I'm sure we'll revisit this argument at least 20...maybe 30 times all through the offseason.

Unless the Broncos cut Peyton or he retires.

As I said earlier, on top of him being a choker his arm is fucked. I doubt you can even rely on regular season Manning at this point.

 

[Futurevoid]

Goes to two AFC Championship games and loses both.

Pey Pey's legacy is to be compared to Mark Sanchez forever.

 

[Man God]

Cutting Manning makes no sense.

If anything else he's a trade chip for Desperate GMs who could keep their job by getting into the playoffs.

I can't imagine a scenario where Peyton honestly starts with a new team. I think it's Broncos or bust at this point because then it would be a process of starting all the way back over with new coaches in a new city, etc.

Trades like that don't seem to happen in the NFL. I doubt many teams can just absorb his money.

They don't pay Thomas because Peyton fucks around, and they don't even make it further than this again next year. Add in inevitable injuries and all the talent that's going to be gone and Gase and maybe Fox gone and I have no clue how anybody thinks we haven't already seen the most competitive Peyton Broncos team there can get.

If he takes that check after March begins then he has no choice if they trade him.

I could see Arizona taking him.

 

[Mackenzie 92]

I could see Arizona taking him.

I don't think he'd go to the NFC and Arians' offense requires a QB who can go deep.

 

[Sviatoslav]

He could retire out of spite. Didn't Plummer do that?

 

[Goro Majima]

Yeah let's be real. Nobody is going to bother to trade for Manning if Manning doesn't actually want to play for that team. There's literally no chance Manning plays for a football team he has no interest playing for to begin with.

 

[DarkFlow]

Arians would take him, just from their history. I'm positive he would adjust for noodle arm to give him one more go.

 

[Man God]

Plus if you believe the weather narrative he'd do fine there.

I think he might have one more go left in him and team construction wise the best bet is still Denver. What sort of dead money would they have if they cut Welker?

 

[slightconfuse]

Team trading for manning would get RG3ed real hard. Would need to give up a lot for potential

 

[Sviatoslav]

| wouldn't say no chance while the Raiders are still in the league. I'd never put anything past that franchise.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

I can't imagine a scenario where Peyton honestly starts with a new team. I think it's Broncos or bust at this point because then it would be a process of starting all the way back over with new coaches in a new city, etc.

But if Fox is fired and/or Gase gets a HC job, then Denver has the same scenario. Honestly I think his decision depends a lot on what Elway does next with the coaches.

I doubt he goes to Buffalo. Dude needs a warm weather team or a dome. Would be hilarious if he went to Houston.

Edit: I contend he should have gone to SF instead of Denver when given the opportunity.

 

[Jarnet87]

Denver didn't have any intention of bringing back Welker. Thomas will have to be paid

Julius Thomas is a fraud. Denver should let him walk, he'll fade away at some bottom tier club that decides to pay him mega money. They could just draft Nick O'Leary, he's Dallas Clark reincarnate.

Welker's contract is up, they'd be insane to bring him back (Which is why I think they drafted Latimer)

Even better.

Wes will be a Raider!

He can always return the New England, cut amendola and bring back welker for less. Of course belichick may want to avoid doing this as welker will choke again when it matters most

Julius Thomas's market value has reduced significantly, he has ankle problems and such. I think they can sign him for a bargain now, but I don't even know. These dudes seem soft, they need tough receivers. Sanders is the only one that has heart, even when he misses catches. DT is alright when he doesn't drop passes. Goodbye Wes, he lost a step clearly.

Rex to the Bills? I'm kind of surprised Jim Schwartz never seemed to get consideration for the promotion.

 

[LyleLanley]

Manning should go to NE and backup Brady.

 

[Sviatoslav]

Manning should go to NE and backup Edelman.

I've been out drinking all day watching football at a bar. Please direct me to any worthwhile meltdowns.

I'm assuming that in this scenario Edelman would be traded and start at QB for the Browns.

So who really has the right to the throne?

 

[Jarnet87]

yeah they have to bring back Demaryius Thomas. I think Sanders is the best receiver they got but that team drastically changes without the threat of DT. I wonder if that "hometown discount" disappears if Peyton is gone.

 

[Fox318]

Jets go to back to back AFC champ games.


4 years later

Their Coach is on the Bills
Their best player is on the pats
Their GM now runs the Fish
And Sanchez was so immature and didn't take the job seriously that he will be out of the league


The Jets everyone

So Quarterback by Committee is the ultimate sign of a bad team.

and rule in this thread is determined by who has the worst team.

so it makes sense that this thread should have two captains.
