What Happens to Peyton?


Peyton Manning is without a doubt a Hall of Fame Quarterback, a once in generation player that has had a wonderful run at the helm of the Colts. With that said, I believe he should part ways with the Colts and join a new team. Incase you didn't know Peyton sat out this past season with a major neck injury and many people have said that he will retire, his team went a pitifull 2-14 without him. He has now been medically cleared by two doctors to return.


Andrew Luck
 There are many reasons why he should not return to the Colts. The first is that the Colts are horrible there is not enough talent around Peyton anymore to even have a chance at another superbowl. Also the Colts are in rebuilding mode, Peyton is 35 and they have fired their general manager and entire coaching staff. Peyton is due a 28 million dollar roster bonus in early march and the Colts have the 1st pick in this years NFL draft. I think they will cut Peyton, save the money, and draft Andrew Luck with that pick.

This move will be a sad one but also a beneficial one for both parties. The Colts need to move on with their franchise and try to rebuild it. And Peyton could have maybe 3 to 4 years left of elite quarterback play. Some possible landing spots for Peyton could be Tennesse, San Fransisco, or the New York Jets. I hope Peyton can come back to full strength and win atleast one more super bowl, i mean he cant let his little bro have bragging rights forever, can he?
