As I'm sure you wouldn't mind seeing Mathis in a Cowboys uniform.

We need so much help it's not even funny. I'll take anyone who I won't see the back of their jersey for 40 minutes of a 60 minute game(I'm talking to you Newman!!) I want to see Ratliff moved to the outside and get a nose tackle. I want a new secondary. I think Carter is the real deal at LB so pretty much the only thing we need is a rush LB for the other side of Ware. We need OL help. I think Murray is for real.

We lost our home run threat on the ground. Gonna change how teams play defense when there is no threat of Redman busting one.

That sucks. I hate end of the year injuries!

Definitely. If Ben were close to 100% I wouldn't be as worried because I do think Redman is more than capable. However, his ankle has clearly held back the offense. Hopefully we see the passing game get back on track next week.

I bet they'll still beat the Broncos. After that though, I think this will really start to hurt their chances a lot.
The Jags are interviewing a lot of people. I would be shocked if they hired Shotty. (replace the o with an i, please).
They're also looking to interview Mullarky and Chudzinski, so...
Shad Kahn wants to explore a lot of options. Don't get your hearts too excited yet, Jets fans.

They are more likely to let Wayne go than Mathis, they know they need Mathis to help their defense. I think he will be their first contract to deal with. Other than that now that Indy has fired polian it will be interesting to see what direction a new GM decides to go with the free agents and the draft pick.

heard some rumors. Jets looking to sign Manning and use Sanchez as trade bait.

There was an article somewhere basically saying that Sanchez will be their qb next year despite speculation that the jets are going to let him go, the reference to manning was sarcasm. They pretty much said that's the only way Sanchez wouldn't be back as qb

I don't think you understand. If the Colts keep an unstructured Manning and draft Luck, they won't be able to afford to resign anyone.
They should try to trade Manning or just cut him.
If they decide to draft Luck.

I think Manning will restructure and try to play for 2-3 more years and then Luck will be ready to take over the reigns. SImilar plan to that Rodgers guy in GB.

But if Manning does stay and doesn't restructure then the Colts will lose a lot of their key players.

Im not so sure its as bad though. They have a lot of expiring contracts that were not great deals that come off the books.
I think there are 16 total contracts that come off the books including 2 that you are mentioning that were monstrous this year towards their 115 million dollar team total. Some of those get restructured and I dont think Manning plays as big a role as some are making it out to be.

Not sure. However Wayne's deal was heavily backloaded, so if he resigns, it wont be a huge cap hit next year. Similar with Mathis and Saturday. Those 3 guys combined for almost 18 million against the cap this year. Freeney has the biggest hit agains the cap and rumor has it, he will restructure for the benefit of the team if they give him a 5 year deal.

With all this speculation about Indy, has it been said the Peyton is 100% and he will actually be able and ready to play next year? I haven't heard that but maybe I missed it.

Manning has restructured before, he is not out to be the richest QB, he is out to win games. I think if it needs to be done he will restructure. I think they can get Garçon at a good price because he does still drop his fare share of balls, but that dude is a monster (6'6" I think) and super fast so they could really use him. Irsay has said that money is not going to be an issue next season. I think Saturday will stay for sure, Mathis will be resigned because they need defense, and Wayne will probably walk because he sounds like he is going to be greedy and ask for a lot of money. I remember before last season manning was quoted as saying that he is not out to be the highest paid player and he wanted his contract structured so that they could afford to put good people around him, and I think that's what will happen. Manning has the ability to make any WR look pretty good, so I think the Colts would be OK without Wayne.
