    Interested to see where people think that Manning will be playing next year.

    Personally, I think the Cards are going to jettison Kolb and make a play for Manning.

    I think Redskins offer him a good opportunity to play for the title. Redskins were one game away from the division lead I believe and they did that with Grossman at the helm. And they can dash out cash if it comes to a bidding war or to make their offer more attractive. I highly doubt Jets have any chance of picking him up.

    I think the Jets with some level of ease COULD pick him up, but wont.

    I took the Jets, but if he did go to Houston and is healthy, they could rival the 07 Patriots in dominance.

    Seattle Seahawks. Draft a receiver, resign Beast Mode. Then you have Peyton Manning throwing to Sidney Rice and *insert drafted receiver*

    Why would the Texans do it?

    You people don't make any sense...

    They were rolling before Schaub got injured...

    Out of all those teams. I'm hoping for the Redskins we won't have to deal with them. Then again would he go to the same division as Eli

    I think it's the Redskins or Arizona. I just don't see Houston as a realistic landing spot for him when they already have Schaub tied into big money.

    Texans have to be totally braindead to make that move. They have Schaub, who is one of the top 10 QBs in the league IMO. They have the best WR, plus a top 3 RB. They need to fix their D and have a few holes to fill when and if Mario leaves.

    Now that we look at the Colts, one can say Manning was the best QB in the league all along considering how his 10+ win team only managed one (or two?) without him. He'll be an upgrade for about 30 teams in the league if healthy. Can upgrade doesn't mean teams WILL upgrade.

    He's going to go some place he'd be happy moving the family for a few years. He's not going to live in a hotel out of a suitcase like some pathetic hanger-on. That makes Arizona and maybe Miami the most likely landing spots.

    If he leaves Indy he'll be totally out of his comfort zone, on top of recovering from a serious neck injury and trying to come back from a year out of the game. He played his whole career indoors, in the same offense, in surroundings that were totally set up for him. Not to take away from what he's accomplished, but I don't see him having the same results going somewhere else.

    I think it's unlikely he ends up with the Texans, but I don't think it's as ridiculous as some are making it out to be. Schaub is 30 and on the last year of his contract coming off what could be considered a career threatening injury himself. Their rookie QB played pretty damn well when forced into action last year.

    Would it be crazy for them to pickup Manning and move Schaub for a draft pick or an impact player?

    I don't get why people think the Redskins are a realistic choice. Maybe for RG3 but why would Peyton and Eli want to hurt each others career and playoff chances. I could see him going to the NFC but not NFC East with Eli.

    I think the 49ers would be his best chance at a Super Bowl. Any NFC west team besides the rams could use him but besides San Fran he's not winning anything.

    I really like the fit in Tennessee even tho management denied interest.

    I think the Cardinals present the ideal situation for him if he's healthy enough to play.

    Fix their D? Lol they were one of the best D's in the league even after Williams went down. The Texans have been the little brother to the cowboys since they came in the league. They make more sense than a lot of teams who've been mentioned, including the Jets. The Texans would be able to get some value for schaub. I'm simply thinking outside the box.

    Aaah...I still seem to be living in 2010. But I still don't think Texans will go after him.
