**OFFICIAL 2015 NFL SEASON THREAD**

Peyton: Take your time on the retirement decision (but try to let us know by March 9th!) His contract runs one more year. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/1...-give-peyton-manning-make-retirement-decision

"We're going to enjoy this, let Peyton enjoy this,'' Elway said. "I'm sure he'll sit down with his family. Eventually we'll talk to him too and go through that. There's no timeline for that right now.''

There is a deadline of sorts waiting next month.

Manning has one year remaining on the original contract he signed in 2012. The $19 million base salary becomes guaranteed on March 9, and the deal counts $21.5 million against the salary cap. That means the Broncos would certainly like to know before that date, since their available cap space is greatly impacted by what happens.

This past season, the Broncos and Manning worked out a $4 million pay cut for the quarterback, but they left the 2016 part of the contract alone. Manning made the $4 million back with $2 million bonuses each for wins in the AFC Championship Game and the Super Bowl.

"Important thing is, it's going to be his decision,'' Elway said. "Where we get a chance to sit down and talk to him, that's up to Peyton, where he is in that process, what he thinks he can ... what he wants to do from here on out.''

What does he keep looking to the side for?? Is he wanted by the goons or something? Kind of distracting to see him keep doing that. Maybe the bilderbergers are on to him...

Do you have anything to say about the content of the video or are you satisfied solely with trying to belittle the messenger?

If the body language strikes you as odd then you clearly only spend time around other white people. Step outside your bubble. You might learn something.

I like Cam. I like the Panthers. I have no animosity for him.
He had an opportunity to step up and be an adult, but he punked out. He's the one who has to live with the stigma. I didn't create it. The media didn't create it. He created it.
 
I don't have any amniosity towards Cam Newton. I was only pointing out why his team didn't win. I don't hate Cam Newton nor do I wish him any ills. He is a better football player then most people who put on a football helmet but that still doesn't mean he was capable of winning on Sunday which he didn't as stated earlier in a post.

10 points . . .

but the last "arm in forward motion" fumble with 7 mins left and the Broncos without an offensive touchdown still ahead . . .
close to becoming a 17-16 game

Not on mine. Pay attention to what he's telling you instead of worrying about superficial bs.

I just watched the first minute and a half of this....it doesn't even belong in this thread. This is a thread for football fans, not conspiracy theories. I don't have a problem with conspiracy theories, but this is not the thread in which to post them. This thread is for fun, getting away from all the political nonsense. Please take that somewhere else.

thank you.

Oh my bad. Pardon me for interrupting your fantasy world. Go team!

Huh? Is the Super Bowl not part of the 2015 NFL season?

Not the way that guy's pushing it. The Bilderbergers probably manipulate a lot of things, but I doubt they could care less about the outcome of the Super Bowl. That discussion just doesn't belong here... I don't want this thread turning political.
 
Manning to Retire

Denver needed a decision before Wednesday when his $19 million contract would be guaranteed and count against their salary cap even though they said he could take as long as he wants to decide. There was also speculation he wanted to play one more year- possibly with another team (Rams being mentioned). Denver needs the money for all the contracts the need to negotiate this year. Going out with a Championship is not that bad of a thing. What next? Maybe the broadcast booth. All he knows to do is preparing for Sunday games. His life will be drastically different but he also wants to be able to spend more time with his wife and kids- who were with him on the field after the Super Bowl win.

Peyton Manning to retire after 18 NFL seasons, five MVPs, two titles and numerous records

After earning a record five MVP awards and, finally, his second Super Bowl trophy, Peyton Manning will retire from the NFL.

He will make the official announcement on Monday, according to the Broncos.

"When you look at everything Peyton has accomplished as a player and person, it's easy to see how fortunate we've been to have him on our team," Broncos general manager John Elway said in a statement. "Peyton was everything that we thought he was and even more -- not only for the football team but in the community. I'm very thankful Peyton chose to play for the Denver Broncos, and I congratulate him on his Hall of Fame career."


This was the ending most were expecting after Manning’s 18th season, a year unlike any other in his career. For much of the 2015 season, Manning, 39, was at his worst, looking old and too weak with a depleted right arm and balky left foot.

But when it was over, he was good enough to help lead the Denver Broncos to their third Super Bowl title as a complementary piece to the NFL’s No. 1 defense, the season culminating with a 24-10 win over the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50.

Only QB to go to four Super Bowl games under four different coaches and only one to win two of them with different teams.
