transient Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) The perfect plan for the Bills is to get Manning and use two QB sets. Manning lines up, reads the defense/audibles. Hikes the ball. If he sees single coverage way down field, he hands the ball to EJ who throws it as hard as he can with his eyes closed. If there are two deep safeties, Manning throws one of his 5 yard ducks. Championship. Instead, how about they have Dr. Frankenstein attach Peyton's head (maybe even shave the forhead so it doesn't need a custom helmet) to EJ's body so that they don't have to play short-handed. It's a win-win-win. Peyton gets limbs that still work and a neck that doesn't have all the wear from the years of wind shear on his forehead, the Bills still get to make use of a first round draft pick, and EJ keeps his spot on the team (sort of). EJ head on Peyton body can throw teeshirts to the crowd where his tendency to throw things over people's heads will be compensated for by his newly worn out arm. Edited February 10, 2015 by transient
BuffaloHokie13 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Just thinking out loud here, if you could have any QB in the world now on the Bills where would Peyton rank? Top 5? Top 10? Top 20? Which guys would you rather have than Peyton Manning of 2015? For me (in no particular order): Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Romo, Ryan, Wilson, Newton, Big Ben and Flacco. I guess that I would have him right around top 10. For what we currently have in place? Rodgers, Luck, Newton, Wilson, Big Ben, Brees, Brady, Rivers, Flacco, Peyton
Talley56 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Nationwide jingles about Peyton playing for the Bills: That O-line will crack my neck. Broken legs they hurt so bad. Ri-chie may call me a wuss. I like my head where it is. I get to play Brady twice Man it snows a lot up here
K-9 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 No thanks. I think Manning has reached the end of the road as a player. GO BILLS!!!
Kirby Jackson Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 no Luck?!I knew that I forgot someone!!!
PromoTheRobot Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 With the new Pegula/Ryan Bills I think there is a decent chance Manning would consider the Bills but only if he feels our O-line is seriously improved. I can see facing Brady twice being a draw.
HT02 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 How great would that be? I'm already dreaming about it
aristocrat Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Peyton helps make our line look better just by him being back there. The def will be scared of him throwing the ball. I wonder if he'd even consider coming here for a cheaper deal so we can put some talent around him.
PromoTheRobot Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Let's temper our lust for Manning with how he actually played the last few games. The guy may really be hitting the wall.
aristocrat Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Guy throws 39 td's and 4700 yards which is way more than any bill in history and we're like...ehhh. Sign me up for that immediately and I'm renting a box at the super bowl.
Bronc24 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Food for thought...if this miracle happened, I'd still build a power running game and use 2015 Peyton in PA, where he excels. True, he chokes in the playoffs, but with the way we are built, he would not need to shoulder the load. Play defense...run the ball...go up top when opportunity knocks. Super Bowl!
Mike in Horseheads Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I hope he doesn't come to the Bills, I don't want to see our OL get him killed or break his neck.
NoSaint Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 No thanks. I think Manning has reached the end of the road as a player. GO BILLS!!! really at this point, you are hoping hes a little better than the injured version, for 1-2 years and that his intelligence at the line makes up for any age issues. i mean, hes better than orton, not that its a good standard to go by.
Big Blitz Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Texans. Not even worth fantasizing about.
NoSaint Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I hope he doesn't come to the Bills, I don't want to see our OL get him killed or break his neck. it is possible with a very good O line coach, draft, and free agency, there may be an improvement.
Not at the table Karlos Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Food for thought...if this miracle happened, I'd still build a power running game and use 2015 Peyton in PA, where he excels. True, he chokes in the playoffs, but with the way we are built, he would not need to shoulder the load. Play defense...run the ball...go up top when opportunity knocks. Super Bowl! up top for Peyton right now is about 15 yards. His arm is shot.
YoloinOhio Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 I hope he doesn't come to the Bills, I don't want to see our OL get him killed or break his neck.if Orton survived...
jletha Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Let's temper our lust for Manning with how he actually played the last few games. The guy may really be hitting the wall. He may be getting close to a wall but he also may have been injured. Two seasons ago he had his best year ever, a historic MVP season but floundered in the superbowl. This year he started out as hot as he was in the the previous regular season but struggled later for whatever reason, you say old age I say injury. I dont think the last couple games will be the norm for him next year though, dont expect 16 of those The guy can play still. Obliviously hes slowed down but Im hard pressed to believe that he went from the best 16 game stretch hes ever had followed by 8+ great performances this year only to fall completely apart beyond repair in a 5 month span. I would love Manning in Buffalo

Update: Luck too yup. and how many of those might shake free this year? maaaaaaybe 1? if 1 does, you have to take a shot. even if not to win the big game, to bridge the gap some to the guy that can
