So glad that one of the greatest of all time is getting out on top without serious injury.

although the season resulted in Super Bowl win, it was painful to watch, and i am glad its over for Peyton.

He must have watched the films. He doesn't have it anymore.

The best end to a great career. Hope he can stay healthy.

Being from Indy, we love Manning. He is really a great guy.

I am glad he is calling it quits at the top of his game rather than going out with defeat because of age and injury.

The guy is smart and the world is his oyster. He will come out on top of whatever he does.

You would think with his HGH, he would have gotten a couple ore seasons.

Probably played too much football to remain healthy in his old age. Probably the only thing he’ll be able to do is to play golf. Strenuous activities like skiing? Forget it.

I bet he winds up coaching a college team a few years then getting a pro contract. Unless of course he goes the Boomer and Simms route.

I think at least these NFL ownership groups--the Colts, the Titans and the Saints--have made inquiries about eventually making Peyton Manning a Managing General Partner in ownership stake of the team.

Yes, I know Manning left the Colts not on the best terms, but I think the children of Jim Irsay wants Manning to be on the Colts' management team, especially given Jim Irsay's known health issues.

I just wished Peyton Manning just released a long public statement thanking all the Broncos fans for his four years there, then on March 9, 2016, he shows up at the Indianapolis Colts’ practice facility to sign a one-day contract to officially retire as a Colts player—he means a lot more to the Colts than to the Broncos.
