Peyton Manning interested in joining Texans?

By Mark J. Miller | Scoop Du Jour – Tue, Feb 14, 2012 6:30 AM EST

US PresswireFour-time NFL MVP Peyton Manning is still a member of the Indianapolis Colts, but that's not stopping plenty of other teams from salivating over the possibility that the folks in Indy are going to let him loose soon.

Houston Texans fans suddenly have the idea that Manning could be coming their way due to a report from KTRK Houston. "Someone … who is close friends with the Manning family says Peyton is definitely interested in possibly coming to the Texans," the station reports. "The person who knows the Mannings says Peyton wants to play on a team that has a chance of going to a Super Bowl, and the Texans fit that description."

The fact that the Texans play in the same division as the Colts is said to be a plus, KTRK reports, since Manning already knows all of the teams involved well.

The Texans won the division last season while the Colts went 2-14 without Manning, good enough to be worst in the league and qualify the Colts for the top overall draft pick this year, which will likely be Manning's successor.

    I think tomorrow someone from Yahoo needs to write that Peyton is likely to join the Giants so he can show Eli who can really play ball. Cmon! Report the news, save the chatter and opinions for the TV and radio shows.

    Payton Manning
    That poor guy may have to hang up his cleats and go into retirement and going on the age of 36 tells you something.
    At 36 your reflexes start to slow down and your mobility is slower but its hard to say for him.

    Matt Schaub isn't exactly a Rex Grossman. When healthy, the guy is one of the better QBs in the league. I don't see any reason why this would make sense for the Texans. Plus, they have a lot of salary to absorb if they want to retain some of their defensive studs. The Texans are SB contenders when 100% healthy.

      Even at 80% health they are continders as long as in that 20% you dont have Schaub AND Williams out.

    They are already like 20 mil over the cap and probably will not be able to resign Mario Williams unless he takes a pay cut so how would this be possible?
