In recent events, my favorite NFL player of all time, Peyton Manning, has been let go from his team of 14 seasons. While it was extremely heartbreaking to watch him give his goodbyes to Indianapolis, it just goes to show that when one door closes another one opens. This could be one of the greatest opportunities for him to go to the Super Bowl for a second time.
Rumor has it he is down to three teams to sign with for next season. One is the Denver Broncos. The Broncos currently have a quarterback who may eventually be Super Bowl material, but isn't quite there yet. He is the one and only, Tim Tebow. He doesn't quite have what it takes to take the Broncos to a title, but he is young and definitely progressing. These two quarterbacks would not co-exist if Manning decided to sign with them, so we would either see one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time take over and have Tebow fans everywhere be distraught, or Timmy would continue to progress as he keeps his reign in Denver. The Broncos have some very big decisions to make.
Miami has also shown great interest in the HOF quarterback, Manning. With WR Brandon Marshall at the top of his game, Peyton may have a chance to take the Dolphins all the way. And with their need for a quarterback, Peyton would be a great fit.
The opened door I was referring to earlier was the opportunity Manning has to play with the Arizona Cardinals. With Fitz and Doucet ready to rock and the possibility of taking Reggie Wayne as a package deal with Peyton, this new Cardinals team would be a force to be reckoned with.
Peyton's final decision is apparently based off of what city would be best for his family. Well, Peyton, if you ever did read this, it doesn't get much better than AZ! Great weather, great schools and so much to do! It's within driving distance to everything. The beach, the snow, lakes, and one of the 7 wonders of the world, all only a few hours away. You don't have to worry about floods, hurricanes, tornados, blizzards, or anything like that. In Miami, obviously you have hurricanes. You may or may not freeze your bum off in Denver. But in Phoenix, the worst thing you have to worry about is third degree burns from your steering wheel. Nothing a little remote starter or some oven mitts can't fix.

If there was one thing I could say to Peyton Manning, it's that Arizona is the next best fit for him besides the Colts and he would be more than welcomed here. I can not wait for this NFL season to start up. He apparently decides in a couple days so I'll be watching Sports Center religiously until he decides. There are so many exciting things happening in the NFL right now! I literally can not wait to see who he chooses.
On a side note: for those of you who know me, I will always be a Colts fan. I will never desert my team because of the loss of a player, even one as great as Manning. However, I will be jumping on the band wagon for whatever team Peyton decides to sign with. I will always have a loyalty to both Peyton Manning and the Colts and will always support both wherever they go. It looks like I get to buy a new jersey this year though. Yay!!
