A Pain In the Neck

Teams need to be ready to move forward with the signing of players once football starts up again. Many teams face huge decisions with their roster.

The Indianapolis Colts need to deal with the future of free-agent Peyton Manning. If he signs the franchise offer, he will be paid $23 million, but will only have a one year contract.

I think both parties will be very guarded about their future. Manning just had his second neck surgery in 13 months. There is rumor that he got injured in the first game of the 2010 season. Nobody is talking about any long term implications to Manning's playing future.

The fact remains that Manning will be entering his 14th season.and will be 36. Age creeps up on guys in this league. The body takes a beating.

Coach Belichick always had the best quote: "Nobody plays forever in this league".
