Well shit. At this point, bring on Tebow I guess! Can't get any worse...

I'd take him over David Garrard, or even Alex Smith. Honestly though they should just stick with Matt Moore, if those are their choices. But since when has the Dolphins' front office done anything sensible?

Niners need to move on, patch things up with Smith and give him what he wants; Smith is going to be coming up in this deal.

So, he's got the Bears' curse in QBs. But, hey...at least his drought is not since the Luckman days.


Cutler is the most decent QB Chicago's had in ages...and while he's not bad, he's proven nothing so far.

Yea I'm not sure if it was the best suit either but we'll see how the season plays out.

Matt Moore actually isnt bad. I hope he wins the starting job over Garrard.

Broncos owner Pat Bowlen just made the announcement alongside Broncos legend John Elway -- a deal worth a reported $96 million over 5 years, making Peyton the highest paid player in the NFL.

Who thinks he'll last 5 years with Denver? He's 36, three surgeries in little over a year and I feel he'll struggle with Denver.

I think Denver is hoping for 2 or 3 years. Probably provisions in the contract that don't pay if he can't play. Lets see who they have to back him up.

Cuz, honestly...all of this attention in the NFL without him must be killing the guy.

I predict a press conference about him unretiring any minute now.

Speaking of attentions whores. LeBron must be shaking his head at the lack of a televised decision by Peyton. Was Jim Gray busy?

His FinalFour Bracket is one of the worst in the country. So he's actually hiding from the press right now.

only the first year of Seyton's contract is guaranteed. Worth the gamble IMO


Theyre saying that the Jets are VERY interested in Tebow

If he's healthy after next year it's more than half guaranteed

The first year of Manning's deal with the Broncos will pay the quarterback $18 million without injury protection for the Denver Broncos, according to Brandt. The Broncos will then pay Manning $40 million guaranteed for the next two seasons, pending Manning passing a physical in March of 2013. The final two seasons of Manning's deal will pay out $19 million each season.

As it stands right now, Manning's deal is essentially a one-year deal for $18 million guaranteed, but if he's fully healthy in March of 2013, it will jump to a total of $58 million guaranteed for the first three years.
