Colts fans need not be bitter nor upset that he left, and no blame should fall on Colts owner Jim Irsay. How can you fault either of the parties involved, if you're Peyton Manning, you believe that you can still play the game that you love and not to mention collect a pretty penny to do so. If you're Irsay how can afford to take a 35 million dollar risk? No matter how many zero's you have on that bank statement, that is just too big of a gamble. It was the perfect storm and unfortunately there is no happy ending for Colts fans.
Peyton Manning has visited with the Dolphins, Broncos, Titans and now the 49er's although it has come down to the Broncos, Titans and 49er's, the future hall of famer is expected to make a decision as early as today March 19th 2012 and no later than the middle of this week! Any of the three teams left in the Manning sweepstakes will automatically become a contender by adding an elite quarterback.
The 49er's seem to have the team that is ready right now to compete for a SuperBowl seeing that they were just one game away from the big game just a year ago. While the Titans seem to think they have the advantage because of Peyton's ties to the state of Tennessee as he played his college ball for the Volunteers. The Broncos seem to be the wildcard but was the first stop Manning made on his free agency tour, the Broncos fans have been overwhelmed with the Tebow mania that took over last year and the Tebow supporters believe, as they also will that Tim Tebow has earned his shot to lead this team.
As for myself I'd love to see Peyton in the orange and blue simply because I live here and also work in sports media, it would be great to cover for the few years that Manning has left in the NFL. On the other hand I do not believe that the Broncos are the best fit, as I mentioned the 49er's are the closest of the 3 teams to winning a SuperBowl right now. San Francisco was in the NFC championship game last year and with the addition of Randy Moss and already having a pro bowl tight end and running back on the roster, Mr. Manning would step in and make that team the NFC favorite to bring home the Lombardi trophy.
I was born in Indiana and of course always have and always will root for the home team, with that said I'd ask that all Colts fans show some class and not root for Manning to fail or for Jim Irsay to fall on his face but to understand that there was no good way out of this situation. Lets all thank Peyton for making the city of Indianapolis a recognizable city and not just the team that left Baltimore in the middle of the night. No one is at fault in here, the Colts need to rebuild and Peyton just like any other professional athlete will chase championships and money until he can no longer compete!
