    That's about the only positive I can imagine in that deal for them. Not that I care since I hate Rex Ryan and The Jets, but it's still a head scratcher.

    Re: Peyton

    As a Bronco fan I would like to see it but ESPN was reporting he will meet with Dolphins and maybe Titans so I'm not as hopeful as before.

    He's going to meet with the Titans also.

    It depends on how much the owner wants him. Last I heard the Jags are having problems drawing people to their games. Don't you think if they got Tebow that they would sell out every game? They more than likely will have more games on national TV.

    Is the purpose to try and sale out or win? I don't think you can win in the NFL with Tebow, no amount of goodwill is going to keep Jacksonville coming if its to see an 8-8 team every year. Tebow and the Donks got lucky with the schedule. It seemed like EVERY team they played had lost a key player the week before, was in Summer football mode because the new qb was still learnning the system, or the team just freaking sucked. I think most of the FO in Denver knows that and trying desperately to land Manning to stop the revolt when they get rid of Tebow.

    Tebow would give them a season or two of sellouts. As long as there is hope, and 8-8 Tebow season will keep fans coming to see the Jags play. It buys them time and allows them to develop a better team. If any place fits for Tebow, its Jacksonville.

    I'd say the Dolphins are probably out since they just traded Brandon Marshall to Chicago. Maybe they're going to sign Vincent Jackson though.

    Re: Peyton

    Or, maybe they're still in, and Manning doesn't like Marshall and they needed to clear some cap space?

    Re: Peyton

    Do you think John Elway gave Peyton a really strong pat on the back to see how he would react to some neck trauma? Or, do you think when they are having dinner, that Elway has to tell himself not to stare at Peyton's neck, like a man trying not to stare awkwardly at a woman during conversation.

    I am feeling more and more like the Titans may do it.

    Its a very interesting debate the Titans are having. There is no doubt that Manning would be a big upgrade in the near future. But with Locker as their QB of the future, how high are they on him, and what is his timetable? For as good as Manning has been over the course of his career, no one really knows the full extent of his condition and he isn't going to let teams put him through a workout. I think Tennessee makes the least amount of sense had he not gone to UT.

    If I were Manning I would narrow it down to Denver and Arizona and really not budge off of that. I know Miami is in the running but I don't see it. Playing the Pats twice and the Jets defense twcie. I think Denver plays in a weaker conference but plays in cold weather as the season goes along. Arizona is a retirement haven with 2 potentially tough division games a year against San Francisco.

    So do I. Same division so he's very familiar with the other teams (Texans, Jaguars and Colts). They've got some weapons on offense with Chris Johnson and Kenny Britt to go along with some nice young players like Damian Williams and Jared Cook.

    Plus the Titans wear white helmets - the only color helmet Peyton has ever worn!
