Today Manning did not look sharp against the Colts. After the first touchdown Manning and the Broncos were never in the game.

Buffalo needs a QB.

I do think it is time to move on.

Thanks for the memories!

He should. Mind is ok, body too old.

I think he’s done.

-He’s clearly not the athlete he once was.

-There will possibly be a new offensive coordinator in Denver next year

-The Broncos have several free agents.

I can see why he came back this year, after getting so close last year. I can’t see him come back next year after the way this season fizzled out.

His arm strength was non-existent - actually shockingly weak and very poor accuracy on his mid-deep passes.

Father Time has caught up with Peyton.

He’s actually been really bad down the stretch. 3 of their last 5 games in the season he threw no TDs. All the press was fawning about how “rounded” that meant Denver was (they did win all 3). But my thinking is it’s a hard cap league and his salary is way too high to not be making TDs, they can’t be that well rounded with his cap hit. And then today, man they just stunk. 200 yards of passing, with 48 of that on 2 garbage time drives. I’m sure if he comes back next year he’ll start fresh, but it won’t last past Thanksgiving. Add the fact that his OC is on the short list for some of the HC jobs. I don’t know if he really wants to come back.

He’s still a quality QB. The loss wasn’t all his fault... Not hardly.

It’ll be up to Manning and Broncos management if he goes another year or not.

I think that the karma is on the Broncos after the way they treated Tebow. I predict the longest historical streak of no superbowl wins for the Broncos. I wish it was not true, but know it probably is.

If he does not return next season, it will have been a sad way to go out. The Denver fans pretty much booed him the entire game and he was not sharp at all. He was flat-footed, looked like Drew Bledsoe out there. A 2005 version of Drew Bledsoe.

Also, he lost to the Colts, the team that he started with and had most of his success with. That had to have hurt.

On a positive note, we likely have been subjected to his awful "Nationwide" commercial for that time.

He was fine 2 months ago. I am not sure what happened to this offense but it was likely not just manning. If he retires it’s because he knows he ran out of gas and can’t likely get through a 16 game season plus 3 games to win a championship. If he was injured and didn’t share he will likely know if it’s something he rebounds from will be a problem again. I don’t see him retiring unless one of those is the scenario. He was still one of the best earlier this season. Anxious to see what happens here. The team definitely deflated since November. They were looking great on both sides in the first half and looked like a clear favorite when Seattle and New England were both floundering in October.

I was watching the game with the sound turned off as I was also watching “The Godfather” trilogy.

I did notice him overthrow quite a few passes. He did not look very sharp. Part of it was either the defensive backs were really good or his receivers were not very good. The DBs broke up a lot of passes and the receivers were not open at all. No QB could have completed those passes.

I am no analyst, but the mojo seems to have left when Decker did. Fox kept bleating there was nothing wrong with the passing game, joke of the season.

He certainly is a shell of what he was last year, and even if they had eeked out a win, would have been shredded by NE.

He should. Manning’s game is in serious decline and he won’t win another Superbowl. He doesn’t need the money so why risk injury just to extend his career?

Manning is a great — Super Great QB. But — his time to retire is now.

Is there anything more to play for? He’ll never get another ring. He’s only a year older than Brady, but Tom seems to have several more years left at a high level than Peyton.

John Fox is responsible for the coaching.

Denver had a predictable game plan which = No Game Plan
And No Win.

Manning may retire.

Fox should be fired.
