The OFFICIAL Peyton Manning Sweepstakes thread...

Him going to TN is one of two things IMO

1) He's seriously considering them as much as Denver and Arizona
2) He wants to give them their fair opportunity to talk with him b/c of his history in the state, but they're an underdog.


Not sure what to make of it. If everything else is equal, I wonder if his wife is in his ear in support of one particular spot. Anyone know where they met?

She is from Memphis, so it would not surprise me if they met in Knoxville. Nashville is a good middle point for them if you ask me. Family all over the place. I'm sure she would enjoy that quite a bit.

@DenverSportNews

Peyton Manning has narrowed his list to two teams, including Broncos: http://dpo.st/xJsjAY Sources tell @MikeKlis

Thats what I was thinking when I heard Wayne resigned with the Colts....I'm guessing it's Tenn or Denver.

[BroncoBlue]

Can't wait for Coors Field's 2012 opening day first pitch!



You know his BFF Todd Helton will make this happen!

So, take that Tennessee you might have college memories, but Denver has your drinking buddies!!!!!!!!

The Bronco's Top Brass are in Indianapolis right now...

Denver would be cool

Didn't they just do some public poll or something in Denver and Tebow was beating Manning with a 60% vote? LOL

It's just as funny as Colorado evangelicals thinking they will get a Catholic or Mormon in the white house in 2012! Ya I think it's obvious White Evangelicals take a lot of "public polls." ;)

I think any REAL Broncos fan realizes the storm that is brewing if we DONT get Manning!

Elawy is going to be fighting for a job IF Manning passes and Tebow leaves... Kinda like McDaniels lost out on a top tier Free agent QB and traded away a franchise QB...

People don't realize the stakes Elway is playing with.

Think about how bad the Broncos will be if they are starting Adam Weber (or as glen would say the better QB then Tebow) next year! If that happens welcome to Denver the number one overall draft pick Landry Jones!

[BroncoBlue]

How are we going to get a top five pick to get your boy Landry Jones then?

Funny that you were the one absent while GS, Warner and I were defending Tebow against the masses and yet you love to point out a statement I made in the pre-season.

You are so bad you make GS and I seem tolerable.

Worst case senerio... Manning picks elsewhere... Tebow gets his feeling hurt and demands trade... Broncos lose out on every FA QB and wastes an early draft pick on a shitty college QB like Foles... Weber comes in and leads us to a shitty record and the #1 2013 overall pick Landry Jones.

I was here for the 2011 Tebow run in spirit I KNEW 2011-12 was going to be meaningful back in the summer, watching all the "fake" Bronco fans like you jump on the bandwagon! Can't wait to see what happens in 2012-13!

No way in hell (get it?) Tebow demands a trade.

Worst case scenario is he gets a vision from god telling him to quit playing.

Enough with all the silliness. Come on home, Peyton.

I was waiting for your take on this.

I'm kinda in the same boat as you on this one. I'm happy with the Hasselbeck/Locker combo, but you can't pass up a future HOFer with a few years worth of gas left in the tank.

I've got a gut feeling that Manning will be wearing Columbia blue by the end of the week. I think (no matter what he says to the Indy fans and media) he feels slighted by Irsay and the Colts and would love to play against them as many times as possible.

Ricky Vaughn: "I've got news for you, Mr. Irsay! You may think I'm shit now, but someday I'm gonna catch on with another team. And everytime I play against you...I'm gonna stick it up...your fucking ass!"

I think what I'm thrilled with the most is that we're really trying to go after some big names in free agency. Usually we just sit on our hands and grab journeymen or no-names.

Whether this is because Bud Adams wants a SB before he dies, or just the new regime under Munchak instead of Fisher remains to be seen. But for the time being, it's definitely nice to see.

Agreed. It's a surprising, yet welcomed change.
