Manning will make a great offensive coordinator in his early retirement years from being an active player.
Why would he take such a huge pay cut?
John Gruden is the highest paid non-executive at ESPN, works 3 days a week, and lives in Florida.
Top college coaches are in the $5m/yr range with ginormous perks
Manning could step into one of those jobs tomorrow.
I think the networks are falling all over each other to sign Peyton as an analyst.
