so... we're gonna wait and possibly lose out on possible key members of FA for a possible pipe dream? man... I REALLY hope they get him if this is the tact they're taking.

They have to know something, don't they? It would be stupid to wait , even at 50-50 odds.

I know. Felt stupid the moment I hit "post reply". Let's just call it accidental sarcasm..


After I made some stupid blunder and owned up to it, I think you told me to never admit to anything.....:D

The NFL Network Total Access crew (Hanson, Baldinger, Lombardi, LaCanfora) just predicted Peyton to the Cardinals.

wOOt! Probably guarantees he goes to Denver.

They were all popping balloons with the logo of the teams they didn't think Peyton would go to and the Cards were the last one left.

Doesn't mean they all agreed.

oh ok gotcha!

Not to be a smart *** but when have we ever jumped right into free agency and snagged players anyways? At least Rod Graves has an excuse for only being able to do one contract at a time for a few days.

Baldinger specifically said he thought Manning was going to the Cards. But who knows what he knows....Lombardi and LaCanfora seem to be more connected.

Quote from Kornheiser on PTI today while discussing Peyton's options:

"I agree with you about Tennessee because he played there, and he knows the division, obviously. You get a revenge factor against the Colts because you play them a bunch of times. I mean, I get all of that. I don't understand Denver at all. I mean, I don't know if their receivers are any good, and the weather can be terrible. Like you, I've thought Arizona has made the most sense. You know, Mike, I'm beginning to think we're getting taken for a ride. That Peyton Manning is leaking stuff here and there as suits him."

I rarely say this, but Kornheiser makes a lot of sense.

And yet there are still national writers out there who believe Denver is a better fit than us. How? They got us on the O-line, that's it.

I was about to say the same thing - I think we fans are being played.

Usually when I feel I'm being played, I "refuse to play."

Sooner or later, the Manning situation will be resolved. Until then, I'll let my "20% likelihood" prognosis stand and go work on my taxes or something.

One thing is certain. From day one... reporters, pundits and "sources" have been playing catchup. They'll finally get it right a minute after PM makes his decision.

The stuff coming out of the Denver media is getting crazier and crazier.

Apparently a radio guy over there just said on air that per "sources"(may I just add that Denver seems to have a lot of sources because no other city media has these sources), anyways back to topic, the guy stated that" Manning was not impressed with Fitz at the Sunday meeting".

Look, I can see a lot of reasons for Manning to not of liked the Sunday meeting, but now the Denver media is making crap up with this Fitz stuff.

... and no doubt, according to "sources", PM was thoroughly impressed with Eric Decker when they met. ;)

Keep in mind that there are many media personalities in Denver that are trying to become the next Schefter who maed it by having great sources inside the league. Most however are jst trying to hit something by throwing everything at the wall.

In truth, Manning knows where he will go, and everyone else is just reading tea leaves.

My gut still says Arizona, and we end up paying him a huge contract.
