I hope Peyton gets cut next, depending on who gets brought in as HC.
Personally if I were Grigson and wanted to ensure a successful resume I'd keep Manning and woe a proven hit maker out of retirement. A guy that knows how to deal with the admin stuff. I mean if you keep Peyton and bring in Marty to get the particulars of that team in check I can't imagine being any less than 10-6 next year, if not a whole lot better.
But if you bring in a new HC, draft Luck, and drop Peyton then Grigson will either look like a complete genius or super bust in the draft because they're going to have a top 3 pick for the next 5 years.

Took them very long to make this decision
I bet Jeff Fisher is pissed he accepted the job in St. Louis before this happened :laugh:

I'm not a Colts fan. I'm a Bills fan. I am a huge Peyton Manning fan though, and it has nothing to do with the Colts, but with greatness. It's the same reason I cheer for Belicheck, but my absolute hatred for the Brady hype keeps me from cheering for the Pats. I was a bigger Pats fan in 08 than I was a Colts fan.
I simply want to see Manning play on a team that can go 11-5 with out him, and then we can all see how great, or how not great, he really is.
and as for Fisher; there's no way he didn't know Caldwell's job was at least very open for dismissal. He could have waited it out, but I think he knew that it wasn't going to be there for him. That being said if I were Fisher I'd only pick the Colts over the Rams if Peyton comes back.
Actually if I'm Fisher I'd look at this scenario; see if you can trade Bradford to the Browns for their 1st round pick since Shurmer would rather have a proven Bradford back in his system than the possibility of RG3 being available at that spot. Then use the two top ten first round picks on Matt Kalil and Justin Blackmon. Then trade their 2nd and maybe even 3rd as well #2 picks to the Colts for Manning. Bring in that scrub that OC'd this year just so Peyton has someone to work with, and The Rams new greatest Show on Turf will make the last Greatest Show on Turf seem like ancient history. Draft the best available QB in the 4th to try and takeover for Manning afterwards.
If Manning has 3 or 4 years that's 3 or 4 chances at a Ring for the Rams.

Kalil & Blackmon are probably going to be picks 2 & 3
