    may not even come to needing to trade assets, might be flat out cut.

    Now if we could get him and Adrian Peterson, wow.

    Well if I wanted us to throw WR screens 40% of the time, I'd just assume we draft Mariota, lol.

    If you're looking at it purely from a player standpoint I don't think Peyton has much left in the tank. Not sure how much help he would be.

    However all those annoying UT fans (I'm a UT fan but have a proper perspective, at least I hope so) who switch NFL teams to whatever team Peyton is playing on, would FINALLY come around and be Titans fans. You know, fans of the team that's actually in their state and the reason that they're Peyton fans in the first place.

    I went to a Wal Mart in East TN to buy a Titans shirt for my brother for Christmas a few years ago. Not only did they not have one piece of Titans apparel, they had Colts stuff EVERYWHERE. Not just Peyton jerseys. They had Reggie Wayne jerseys. They had Dallas Clark jerseys. Colts sweatshirts, hats, etc. You get the point. All that to say, if Peyton just came here for one year it would be SO good for the team and finally convert all of those team hopping fans that plague this state.

    Eh. Screw those Peyton bandwagoners. They'd just stop being Titan fans as soon as retired anyway.

    Payton Manning is probably my least favorite person in all of sports but I could have stomached us getting him 3 years ago because I would have given us a great shot of winning a Super Bowl but Manning is done and now the is not nearly as much upside.

    It's not the dumbest idea in the world.

    I look at it like this, we go into the season with:

    Manning

    or

    Mett/Winston/Mariota. None of which fill me with confidence

    We get 1 or 2 good seasons out of Manning, he retires and Mett is a better qb for learning. Or do a Colts and suck for a year and try to get a good QB in the draft.

    Why would manning leave the broncos again? There is no point here. He's built the team around him. He calls the shots. The next coach will be picked by him. Unless he retires. This dumb thread is dumb.
