Everybody is on Manning’s jock, amazing! I hope he does well, and stays out of the AFC East!

Houston signs Peyton, then trades him to Tennessee for the Oilers franchise.

“I hope to be one of the teams he looks at,” Adams said.

Umm. Last time I checked, teams had 53 men on them.

Hey Bud, you will have to talk with Archie the Ventriloquist. He’s the one who controls where his daughters play.

Hey Bud, I heard there is this QB called Vince Young whose a free agent. He won the national championship for the University of Texas. Want to sign him?

Every owner in the league should take a hard look at this. How often does a player with this much risk/reward come available? People say he’s got two good years left in him if he’s healthy but he was cleared to play. You may just be getting a future HOF’r with a chip on his shoulder, a well rested 90% of his body and a no doubt wiser mind. Peyton didn’t forget how to play football. He could win his second Super Bowl in the right situation, right now. I applaud the Dolphins and now the Titans for saying “of course we would be interested in Peyton freaking Manning”.

why are these teams so willing to just trash the careers of their young stars like Locker for some old injured QB who won’t be there beyond 2 years……sad/stupid.

The feeling needs to be mutual and there is no way Peyton Manning would want to play on a non contender

I still think when all is said and done that he winds up on the Texans.

I actually think this is a smart fit. Solid offensive weapons, a young QB to be groomed/fall-back-on and a chance at revenge twice a year.

Titans just invested — a lot — in Hasselbeck for now and Locker for future. Obviously neither are Manning, but both played very well last year.

This would be a waste, they could use the help at other places more.

This Bronco fan wishes Bud good luck. I think Peyton would divert and stall our team’s youth movement. I’d rather spend the money on a couple young top-notch free agents who could stay in Denver for years to come. If Peyton had anything left, it seems to me the Colts would have renegotiated his contract – I guess they still could do that.

Denver has way too many weaknesses to win the big one for a few years so give Tebow another year, then go from there.

i cant see this, even if Adams throws a ton of money his way. i just dont see Manning going to the AFC South.

In hindsight, I bet the Raiders wish they waited to trade for Carson Palmer. They could have had a better QB without giving up the First Round pick…

If this keeps up, there are going to be a whole lot of starting QBs this year feeling insecure/insulted. It’s one thing for a team like Denver to be looking, but the Titans have what they need at QB. Manning’s a great prize, but some of these teams will end up both without Manning and sabotaged at QB.

Although he just lives in another city, it always seems like Bud Adams is on another planet in relation to the football people at his team.

Sometimes it seems like the football people explicitly ignore him and do their own thing until really big stuff happens like when
Jeff Fisher and Vince Young went through their public divorce.

I mean, you’re speculating if the football people or the owner will get their way, lol. The owner kind of trumps everybody in the organization, doesn’t he?

Nice. Locker and Hasselbeck must feel really good about playing for this clown. Not having to put up with the whims of Adams, Ross, Snyder etc. is one of the best things about being a Green Bay fan.

Yeah I’m sure you do Bud. I wanted him in Miami…Unfortunately Peyton has already visited the teams he is going to choose from. I’m guessing Denver over Arizona.

That should work for Peyton – a tiny city, a forgiving press corp, a forgiving fan base and no real expectations.

Bud didnt know Peyton was a free agent till the Wyatt told him during the interview.

all this hoopla for a guy that only has one super bowl win (and that was against Safe Rex Grossman), no ncaa national championships, no heisman.

I’m flabbergasted.

As a Falcon fan all I can say is Jake Locker looked pretty damn good to me in last year’s Falcons/Titans.

Hey Bud, ask Manning to throw. You’ll no longer want him. Nobody will. He’s done. He’s just looking to rip off the highest bidder like he ripped off Irsay and the Colts last season.

As my Latin teacher, Sister Dulcilia would say …
Caveat Emptor.

Not a problem. Please return Jake Locker and Matt Hasselback to Seattle where they belong, and Peyton can return where he came from…

It would be interesting if he stayed in the same division. It would be a ton of pressure on Luck.

If Peyton really wants the best fit, the Dolphins with Marshall or Cardinals with Fitz would be the best fit. They could both bring in Wayne and Clark to compliment the standout wr each team already has. Bush would have a field day catching balls out of the backfield with Wayne, Marshall, and Clark commanding respect.
