I still can't believe Manning chose Denver over Frisco

His team is about to be 2-3, no run game, shytty defense, average to ok receivers.

At best he has 2-3 years left, so why not go to a team on the verge of greatness, with a top 3 D, solid run game, top 3 TE, decent receivers and a good young head coach.

To me the decision would of been a walk in the park, not sure what Manning wanting to prove by going to an mediocre team as a 34 year old with a bad neck.

Alex has been amazing this year so i'm good, but 15-20 years you can look back and say WHAT IF?

Breh, he wasn't going to the NFC to get in the way of Eli and a possible Manning/Manning Superbowl

SF was never a realistic option if you knew Peyton and his personalty. They just let themselves get hyped up when it was never going to happen in the first place

Manning was shook. 9ers woulda been a lock for the SB. Not making it, Peyton woulda been shytted on. He has an excuse to lose in Denver. And yea, there's also the (highly improbable) Giants/Broncos SB :stopitslime:

You honestly think Denver has a sno balls chance in hell at reaching the SB? Sounds like a delusional excuse for manning. It seems he ran from the pressure

Peyton Manning took a team with the worst running defense in the league to a Ship. Any team he's on has a chance to go to the Superbowl

Broncos can still make the playoffs. Remember they were in a similar position last season at this point! Chill breh.

San Fran probably offered him a bullshyt deal compared to Denver anyway

TBF that shytty defense nutted up in the playoffs while manning struggled all post season. 3 TD's 7 picks. To bad they both units didn't play well at the same time

Well considering Peyton had the hardest superbowl run of all time (Faced #1 , #2 , #3 overall defenses, only QB to ever do that and win) and still led the biggest comeback in conference championship history (vs the pats) and won Superbowl MVP I say he did pretty well
