Greenseed4 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 If you read the body language in todays presser you could tell that Irsay and Manning 1) don't like one another now 2) Manning is a better public speaker - and dare I say more intelligent, than Irsay 3) there is a good chance that Irsay is hitting the bottle again. Ha! Personally, I liked the forced snivels, and repetitive "...we like each other a lot... pretty much 'besties'... " Manning was in the driver's seat during that presser.

Klecko73isGod Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 On the surface you may be right, Manning is looking for the Big time and a big paycheck and that also means huge commerical deals...i.e. NY JETS (for better or worse). You have to admit if he comes here what would be a bigger story line for the next 6 months and through the season? I don't think Manning is looking for the "big time." He is already the most recognizable face in the NFL. He's gonna get huge endorsement money no matter where he goes. He's looking for a comfy fit where he has a legit shot at a SB. Houston pretty much offers everything he's looking for except the cap space and we all know there are ways around that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetscode1 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Mentioned this another thread a couple of days ago. Manning wants Houston first and Tennessee second...He's hoping to stay in the division so he can stick it to Irsay twice a year ala Farve. Maybe we could pry Schaub from Houston once the deal is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashmouth Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Of course Manning wants Houston look at the talent on that houston team you think the Mannings want the Jets with Green McKnight Powell Holmes lol.... or Foster Tate Johnson ? No brainer IMO But mannings forgeting one Key element Jets fans know that they have Super Stars all over the field on offense they are top five man ...Hell maybe if Peyton comes here we might be able to lure back the incredible 35 year old Plaxico !!! Manning also does not realize that Hunter is heading for a pro Bwol next season and Keller will stretch for balls in the middle of the field with Safties and LB's looming just like Dallas Clark used to do.

Bleedin Green Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I find it funny the hard-on that's developed in recent times for the Texans, when the truth is the team only just made the playoffs for the very first time in their history, and it only took them 9 years. Considering that last year was the first time their team's defense ever wasn't a complete joke, I'm not exactly holding my breath thinking they won't take any steps back there, and the truth is, their passing game is essentially a one man show, and AJ is only getting older and more injury prone as time goes on. Don't get me wrong, I think they're a pretty good team, but I'm far from blown away by them either. There's other reasons I could see Manning wanting to go there (the division, venue), but I hardly see a team that's particularly more talented than a number of other potential suitors. If anything, the real difference last year between them and a lot of the other teams in question was when they actually had a healthy quality QB worth a damn. And frankly, given how badly Manning has owned the Texans over the course of his career, I'm not sure how enamored he would be with their talent either.

If only Peyton was as smart as the Jets fans Man great points Smash. You are so dialed in to the NFL and what it takes to be successful its scary. That stacked and I mean STACKED! Houston offense managed to score a whole 23.8 pts per game. Which blew the Jets 23.6 out of the water. And their passing attack with all that amazing talent at WR, TE, RB and OL - managed an insane 219yrds per game vs. the Jets horrendous 206. You're right. Its amazing what talent on offense can do for a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the same guy who threw for 300 yards in a victory against Cincy without the benefit of an injured Andre Johnson. If you want to go that route I can bring up the playoffs where he did have Andre Johnson and threw for 159 Yards and one TD and Arian Foster went nuts with 153 yards and 2 TD's and in the other game vs the Ravens he was 184 yards and 3 Ints only reason they stayed in the game at all was Foster once again. Want to compare those 2 playoff gems to Sanchez 4 road victories and the 17 -6 lead vs the Colts when the Jets defense sh*t the bed and the idiot Jet coaches went conservative ?
