EPTSad for the fins but I hope they go ahead and draft Tannehill. I just feel like he would be better as the franchise guy than Flynn.

I find it hard to compare players from different eras, but if you think Manning wasn't a top 5 QB in the game during his reign of dominance then you need to lay the crack pipe down. Hell the ONLY reasons why I wouldn't put him as a top 5 QB right now is his age and injury question marks. The only reason why I take Smiff over Manning is b/c he'll be way cheaper in the long run and this will allow the 49ers to resign/extend assets (ie: Goldson, Bowman, Aldon Smith) with that added cap space not devoted to Peyton F. Manning. | ||

The 49ers are still Super Bowl contenders without Peyton Manning, so I imagine Peyton's looking at them as his best shot. Quite frankly (sorry Denver fans) but the 49ers core team is essentially an upgraded version of the Broncos (better run game, better defense, better passing game, probably worse line though). He's not going to get the same contract for life offer from Denver that he gets from Tennessee, so I see them being most unlikely. I can't envision Tennessee's talent being a lure to get Peyton Manning, but he has a connection to the state. In my mind it's likely between SF for talent or Tennessee for personal reasons/nostalgia etc. Of the three, I hope he goes to San Fransisco. | ||

Great defense, great running game, great offensive line, better receiving weapons (umm Michael Crabtree, Randy Moss, Vernon Davis, Mario Manningham - all of the sudden the 49ers have a receiving corps? Wtffff), and a joke of a division. The 49ers are still Super Bowl contenders without Peyton Manning, so I imagine Peyton's looking at them as his best shot.

Yeah, if Peyton wants to win another Super Bowl, he'll go with the Niners over any of the other teams that are after him. I really hope that's his goal. | ||
