Not really suprised to be honest with you, had he chosen us it would be about the same numbers... and you cant rule out the thought that Denver may have just spent 95 million for a SB appearance.. Afc will get the ass kicking from the NFC like ussual here lately but they may have baught a ticket..Will have to see...

Then agian how great would it be to hear "with the first pick of the 2013 draft the Denver Broncos select (insert QB of future here)".. I wanna set manning break the single season INT record and look like shit while completely healthy all year.. ;)

Remember this time last year when the Eagles were just about guaranteed to get to the Superbowl this past year? They couldn't lose!!!11111

LOL, yeah.

Every year the term post season is it's own season proves to be right...

Who had the Giants winning the SB in November?

So much for that line of BS about an incentive laden contract with very little or no guaranteed money.

Had to figure he wouldn't be cheap once he had 3-4 teams heavily in the running. Still don't know how much is guaranteed though. we'll see. probably more than i was hoping.

I think it was just publicity posturing to make Polian look bad.

I doubt it's that simple. I bet he had no clue what interest would be out there or how many teams would be willing to take a chance on him after not being able to throw all year and having all those surgeries so he floated that b/c he felt he needed to and then quickly found out that teams were willing to pay him more so he went w/ it.

Who wouldn't? That's just crazy money for someone that may or may not play and play well.

That's what I'm saying. I don't think he was being disingenuous when he brought it up to begin w/ but then he quickly stopped being an issue.

All of a sudden no one here wants Manning.

I think a lot of people were more 'meh' on it than you think. I said a few times that getting Hutch and Wells/Myers was much more important to me than Manning.... but then we didn't get the C which sucked.

Don't confuse extreme interest with the intrique and wanting your team to "win" the competition for signing him, with actively wanting him. I saw a lot of people say they were warming to the idea or coming around or, etc.
