    The Seabags have the defense to make some noise if the QB situation is resolved.

    Arizona might want to take a shot as well, because Manning throwing to Fitzgerald would be insane.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I don't think Arizona will abandon the (expensive) Kolb experiment after only one year. Manning to Fitzgerald would be pretty fun to watch, though.

    Arizona makes a lot of sense to me

    Fitzgerald + playing in a dome

    First time in a long time the NFCW should be pretty competitive. The 49ers and Seahawks could arguably have the most physical teams in the NFC next year.

    I agree, Arizona would be a good fit and I dont think they'd think twice about releasing Kolb if they could get Peyton.

    The Dolphins are getting a lot of noise, but I just don't see it. Sure, they have Brandon Marshall, but I doubt Manning would want to play outdoors all season, and play against Brady 2x/year and the Jets as well.

    Denver may be an option as well. With their defense and a QB, they'd be nasty.

    I'd like to see Peyton and Wayne sign with the Cardinals or Dolphins.

    Cardinals would be fun to see. Fitzgerald and Wayne with Manning would be a blast to watch next year. Arizona's offensive line needs some work, though.

    The Raiders can always use a QB.

    This is what I've been saying since the playoffs... put Manning on the Niners and they win the superbowl.

    Do you think Peyton cares what happened that long ago? It's about the current roster, the city, and the organization.
    Seahawks/Seattle > Raiders/Oakland.

    John Clayton was on Mike & Mike this morning and he said that Arizona will have a hard time getting Peyton because of their salary cap situation. They are only $3 million under the cap and are looking to dump one of their best offensive linemen to clear more money, but still wont have nearly as much as Miami, Washington, and Seattle. Obviously Peyton isnt going to like the idea of a team dumping a good offensive linemen. He doesnt scramble much, so he needs a good o-line. Arizona can cut Kolb, but would still take a $6 million cap hit. Miami, Washington, and Seattle are all about $32-$35 million under the cap.
