vmax Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 He gave Manning $90 million and I bet he feels like he's comming out of a blackout like his Dad thinking "I did what!?!" Count Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay among those worried about Peyton Manning's neck. On Saturday morning, Irsay used his Twitter account to acknowledge there is a possibility the Colts will start the season without their No. 1 quarterback. Manning, who signed a five-year, $90 million contract last month, ....http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/Indianapolis-Colts-Peyton-Manning-may-not-be-ready-for-opener-082011/?gt1=39002 "Well Jim, I can still do commercial!."

OutsideRzAcE Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 With Manning, the Colts have been a perennial Super Bowl contender. Without him, well, the dream of becoming the first team to play an NFL title game in its home stadium would certainly take a hit. Indianapolis will host the upcoming Super Bowl. Backup quarterback Curtis Painter has started both preseason games and has completed 8 of 16 passes for 95 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. In Friday night's 16-3 loss to Washington, Painter managed only one first down and couldn't get the offense past its 29-yard line despite playing the entire first half. See...our backup QB situation could be worse. Quote

papasmurfbell Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 And they gave him a long term deal instead of rolling with the tag price. Smart move. Quote
