Manning Watch

I've said before, I'm a Manning fan.

& it looks like it will still be a few more days before I figure out what team I've got to pull for.

Manning's top suitor's seem to be Denver, Arizona, Tennessee and Miami.

I could pull for any of those.

But what are the repercussions if he goes to those squads?

Denver - What would they do with Tim Tebow? Would he really be gone? What about Tebow Time?

I don't know where Tebow would head. But I know, personally, of a few Bronco's fans that would be extremely disappointed. I would be disappointed, too.

Maybe that wouldn't be for the best.

Arizona - They've got Larry Fitzgerald, who could prove to be a selling point. But they've got to make a decision quick because of their own QB situation with Kevin Kolb. He's owed $7 million if he's on the roster today.

Plus, this is the NFC people. Manning is all AFC.

Looking like they might not be in the running after all.

Tennessee - The same division as the Colts? Really? Would that be a smart idea? I understand you could seek revenge and seek it twice a season, but I'm not sure it'd be worth it. The Titans owner Bud Adams has reportedly said he'll do whatever it takes to get Manning on board.

I wouldn't doubt there are a lot of owners willing to do just the same.

Miami - The same division as the Patriots. This could hold some value in Manning's eyes. Sunny Miami. Beating Brady at his own game. I don't know where he's going or what he's thinking, but this stop seems to have something about it that makes me wonder if he might not end up a Dolphin.

Don't hold me to it though.

This is an article Rick Reilly wrote back on March 8th. A Tribute of sorts to Manning.

The Colts may have gotten lucky with Manning and his success, but clearly now they're looking to get Luck.

This time by the name of Andrew.

I'll still have an interest in how the Colts do, but with so many of their star players gone, it's not the same team. Though they do still have Reggie Wayne.

But, back to Manning.

I don't have a clue where he's going, but he'll have to take a back seat to March Madness now.

And so the Manning Watch continues.
