I See QB Rumors (2012 QB Thread: The Sixth Sense)

I could easily see how a perfectly healthy Manning at 36 could go to a new team & really struggle,Gotta disagree with you on this one bro.
I can't imagine a 100% healthy Peyton Manning struggling.

"Come on Man" - to the guys who don't think he can learn a new scheme?

Peyton is coming from one of the most difficult offensive systems, will never be out done in the film room, out studied or out schemed. Calls plays at the line of scrimmage, calls all the protections, calls out blocking and can change a play in the same breath.

It's up to the coaches to decide but he certainly deserves a look and from about 25 other teams in the league as well.

"Come on Man" right back at cha!

I stated that it's not all just about Peyton, it's about him learning a new system AND his teamates & coaches adapting to him. He had full control it appeared in Indy for all those years. Can't assume he would have that here or anywhere else. The coaching staff & players would have to adjust to him as well. He's no spring chicken either, how much change would you want to bring upon your organization for a 36 year old? Better in the long run to do that w/a rookie.

As for him coming in & being given full 'control' over the offense, how would that be for team morale? I'm sure Shanny would adapt some things to fit Peyton, but coaching staffs don't gut their entire system for a player unless they're hiring a new coordinator.

Peyton not gonna be the same player he was on the Colts if we get him here, if he would be, the Colts wouldnt let him go.

I think that the Redskins are actually going to end up with Kyle Orton and possibly even resign Rex Grossman. We don't have any firepower to get Bradford or Luck.....

Is your name actually Rex Kelly or are you just dreaming of a Rex Grossman to Malcolm Kelly connection that never was?

All you need is draft picks.

All you need is draft picks.

True dat. And/or Orakpo.

Just have the Giants sign Peyton to back up Eli and call it a day.

But do you give up the 3 high round picks to get him?

...but coaching staffs don't gut their entire system for a player unless they're hiring a new coordinator.If its for a healthy Peyton Manning you do.
Manning would be the de facto passing game coordinator.

Or just hire Peyton as the head coach since Giant fans are so dissapointed with the job Coughlin is doing.
