Well he has a condo down there so let's not get carried away. He's probably just visiting his home away from home

Miami is a good option for him but again atm anything is possible

4. Washington Redskins: Mike Shanahan has had a rough first couple of years in D.C., and given owner Dan Snyder’s impatience, it’s possible he’s coaching for his job. Manning would be a huge gamble, and there would have to be a fallback option, but I’m pretty sure it’s one neither the coach nor owner would shy away from taking. This wouldn’t be Donovan McNabb 2, a horror-flick sequel; people close to Shanahan say he regards Manning as the greatest quarterback of all time, and he and his son – offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan – would give this veteran quarterback a lot more power and leeway than they did McNabb. The Redskins would need to go out and get Manning some weapons, perhaps making a run at familiar targets like Reggie Wayne and/or Pierre Garcon in the process. The team’s overall talent level isn’t overly impressive, but a healthy Manning could change the vibe in a hurry. The weather isn’t horrible, and the move would be incredibly sexy: Among other things, he’d have the chance to battle younger brother Eli and the defending Super Bowl champion Giants twice during the 2012 season. With the Shanahans’ play-calling chutzpah and acumen and Manning’s immense knowledge, this could be a legendary combination.

Peyton Manning reportedly according to John Keim on Twitter, has just landed in the airport at Miami...

Just the beginning of Manning and/or his agent meeting and talking on the phone with every interested team. They would be foolish not to before making a decision.

He just came from Florida with Irsay, don't think he's down there on vacation

Who in their right mind would spend wintertime in Miami when they can spend it in Indy?

same can be said if we trade for RG3 and he is bust or gets injured.

Never implied we should do that, at least in that comment. RG3 will probably coast too much. The most I would consider giving is the same as the Manning trade. I think we are in a bad situation right now with no great solution.
