--- Quote from: Lunatic on January 25, 2012, 11:04:38 AM ---Manning will want to play for the Titans if he leaves the Colts but we won't want him probably :P
He has a house in Tennessee, went to College there and would get to play the Colts twice a year.

Depending on the price I don't see how you don't take him. Locker would do great learning under neath him for 3 years. hell, Peyt could go from QB to QB coach right after he retires and that's a win/win for everyone. Though, Peyton's other home could be something if the unthinkable happens and Brees ends up taking one last big payday. I mean Brees because of his health and coachability would easily be able to bring in the biggest contract from other teams. How much would the Redskins, Jets, or Cowboys be willing to pay for Drew Brees. Quite a bit more than they'd pay for a "maybe he's not healthy" Peyton Manning.
And if that HUGE if that Brees doesn't re-sign with the Saints happens then how can you not make the play for Peyton? Especially with the Superbowl in the SuperDome. They'd win the #1 seed and the whole playoffs would be in Louisiana. The NFL would almost insist. And the refs would try like the devil make sure it's Manning vs Brady. With Manning vs Manning in the NFC Championship game.

Brees is not leaving New Orleans
Titans will certainly be on Manning's wishlist

Then there is absolutely no reason to not want him unless he wants you to break the bank, but no one is going to offer him guaranteed money. Whatever contract Manning signs will be incentive based.

I just know my team and I'm sure they're happy with Hasselbeck & Locker, 2 buddies as well lol. Honestly, Hasselbeck is probably a better mentor for Locker.

I wouldn't be able to guess what kind of mentor Peyton would be for anyone, as I have nothing tangible to base it on. But Manning on this year's Titan's (healthy) and you guys may very well have still been playing in a couple weeks. You win all the 9 games you won, and get three guarantee wins against Jacksonville, Cinci, and Indy. Right there you've got 12. If you can even split the other 4 losses you get the #1 seed.

True.
1. I feel mentally, you'd learn more from a friend who knew he was talking about rather than somebody who was brought in to tell you how to do it because he's that good.
2. Not everyone is Peyton Manning. Whose to say Locker could run the Titans the way Manning ran the Colts? Shallow always says how he's gifted like no human being to ever be spawned into the sporting industry. You can't teach ability.
3. This is insane, he isn't going to the Titans.
