HOUSE Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) 1. The Buffalo Bills. Pros: Potential championship-caliber defense, receiver Sammy Watkins, Rex Ryan at coach, deep-pocketed ownership that seems to be committed to winning, passionate fan base. Cons: Direct competition with the Patriots and Tom Brady, possibly multiple bad-weather home games. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/01/13/could-peyton-play-elsewhere-in-2015/ Edited January 13, 2015 by HOUSE
Realist Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I'm sure a lot of people on this board would hate that too.
Kirby Jackson Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I have a feeling that there will be a lot of posts in this thread....
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Well, this would definitely make the Bills the #1 most talked about team in sports.
YoloinOhio Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) But he's 40 and has one leg. Bills fans: I'll take him!!!!! Edited January 13, 2015 by YoloinOhio
GunnerBill Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Peyton Manning is done. He is hanging them up and I really hope he does. He deserves better than coming to a place like Buffalo and getting booed by elements of our fan base for being a shell of his former self.

(for Real) once he gets healed up and rests the first month we are all set.
beerme1 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Peyton Manning is done. He is hanging them up and I really hope he does. He deserves better than coming to a place like Buffalo and getting booed by elements of our fan base for being a shell of his former self. Especially when he can stay right there in Denver and get booed during a playoff game.
GunnerBill Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Reports say a torn quad. Yea I know and maybe the injury was worse than they let on - but is it just that? I really don't think so though. I believe that sometimes body language and the tone of someone's voice when they are speaking tells you a lot. Peyton was telling me on Sunday that this is the end of the road.

PromoTheRobot Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I'll start eating Papa John's pizza if he signs with the Bills.
NickelCity Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 If he were to come, which he won't, it would be fantastic. He wouldn't have to throw nearly as much (although it might be hard for him to forgo that level of control/influence on a game), he can move the chains. He is still a very good QB.
BillsFanM.D. Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Maybe this belongs in the 'big splash' thread? I hope...
Best Player Available Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Someone listed this dribble in another thread somewhere. besides who needs a QB who exits the playoffs every year in his teams first game? EJ has a higher ceiling and that hurt just writing it. peyton doesn't need the money that bad, but maybe franchising Bocce's club would interest him?
SouthernMan Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I get sick of hearing "bad weather" being such a big factor for players or FA considering playing for Buffalo. It's an exaggeration of the frozen tundra perception of Buffalo. The majority of blizzard-like conditions occur after Jan 1. Typically there are only about 4 games per year played in WNY after October, and usually there are not more than 1 out of 4 (if that) that could be considered "bad weather". There may be some cold games, but it's hardly any different than it often is in Denver, Foxboro, NY, Cleveland, Green Bay, Chicago, Pittsburgh, etc. Even players with the Bucs or Dolphins have to experience "bad weather" games, since there's a fair chance they'll play a late season game in one of those locations at some point. Seriously, how many "bad weather" games have the Bills had at home over the past 10 years? I'd be surprised if there were more than a few. For you season ticket holders, what games in recent memory would you categorize has having harsh conditions for a Bills home game? If fear of bad weather is really that much of an issue for any player, I wouldn't want him anyway.
