OG Jaydc:
Who's to say manning is even the same player when he comes back? And let's be real, manning takes every single snap in practice and warm ups,he demands it. That's documented. It's not a coincidence that the colts have never been able to produce a viable back up.If I was developing a young qb I wouldn't want manning(or Brett Favre) anywhere near my team.A team like Seattle manning would fit because they aren't developing anybody, same with the redskins.

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.

Yeah, I wouldn't want Manning on the Hawks if we were developing a young QB (Locker), but all we have is undrafted Josh Portis and Tavaris Jackson who by all accounts has already hit his ceiling. If he can still play I'd love to have him here.
BabyBird:
good call on manning being re-leased

If Manning is healthy and can play I don't care who is being developed, depending on the cap space. Even teams with established starters like Matt Ryan, or Cutler, or teams that just signed #1 picks like Bradford or Stafford. Jake Locker may be the future of the Titans but Peyton Manning can take a 2-14 team to the playoffs ten times. You have a legit shot at 3 rings in 3 years. Good luck trying to get a legit shot at 3 rings in 20 years with Locker.
To me this is like Larry Bird being cut by the Celtics after his 88/89 injury, and somehow there is a team in the league that doesn't want him. You think the Pistons beat the Bulls in 7 the next year if you added Larry to the mix? Larry only played 3 years after that injury, but if he was signed by the Lakers that very first Bulls 3-peat may not have happened.

Titans wouldn't grab Manning, they won't want him near Locker
Redskins or Seahawks make sense for sure
