No Decision

Teams are often reluctant to put players on Injured Reserve. We saw it with the Pats and Dan Koppen. This morning, the owner of the Indianapolis Colts indicated that QB Peyton Manning would not play again this year. They made no move to place him on IR. A few hours later, they backtracked and said he might play again this year.

I only know what I've read about Manning's condition. It doesn't look well. Considering the surgery he had, he should sit out this season.

In fact, Manning needs to give consideration to retirement. He could be walking away from millions, but his quality of life in his later years are staring him in the face. It's not worth playing anymore.
