Right. There's no plan to bring in to be the starter. Not as far as I know. He's just an option for depth

Re: 2011 Redskins Free Agent Rumors and Reports Thread
 

No to unfocused on disciplined quarterbacks. I don't care how much experience and potential they have.

I can only hope it's where ever Jeff Fisher goes to next. I can only pray he gets his chance to show he's learned his lesson any place other then the Redskins organization.

I hear Dirtbag is going to make more gametape videos when the Redskins sign their free agents next week.

You guys are gonna hate me...
Remember a few years ago when I speculated a Brett Favre return? And it happened? 1 year Redskins QB? I'd buy his jersey. Bring back the football!

Uh, no.

While it is/was time for him to retire due to wear and tear, BF's sudden and final retirement was also a convenient way to avoid a more in depth investigation and possible suspension from the embarrassing sex-ting and possible sexual harassment issues from his Jets days. I don't think he wants more things coming to light and a possible suspension from the Roger Goddell's moral police.
This is not based on any facts, just my assumptions, but the timing all this last year was very convenient.
As much as BF wants to come back, he is not coming back. No way.

Re: 2011 Redskins Free Agent Rumors and Reports Thread
 

Wonder if Brett is going to Santana's party.


2 years ago, I'd say sure...bring Brett in. His last season was ugly though. It's clear that he is done now. He may have the heart to play and that had carried him through most of his career, but age and injuries finally took enough away from his abilities that no amount of heart can lead him to success any more. Plus, the "other" stuff he's involved in too.

According to this report, Peyton Manning is looking to wriggle his way onto the open market.

Long way to go before we go lending credence to this, but if this were to happen, drop everything and sign him for a gajillion dollars.

He's not going anywhere.

I agree but can you imagine how badly the Colts would be screwed if he left.
There would be rioting in the streets of Indy.

I agree, that move would be out of character for him. And I can think of one big reason this story could have been invented and leaked to the media. With Manning as part of the antitrust suit against the NFL, he may have the legal standing to hold up the CBA. So somebody (not Peyton) probably started this rumor on purpose to put last minute pressure on the owners.

I doubt that would accomplish much, just as I doubt there's any credence to it. But I could definitely see either side resorting to some funny tactics now that we're at 11:59 pm in the negotiating process.
