Where will Peyton Manning land in 2012?

Assuming he will play.

For the record I highly doubt Peyton will be a Colt next year. It can happen but I doubt it will.

There are 2 ways to look at this.

1. Who really need/wants him?

-A few teams I have heard are: Dolphins, Redskins, Cardinals. Even Jets.

Those a teams that desperately need a Quarterback. They are willing to fork out a huge lump sum for him. He could be in need of more money, but I doubt that too.

Either between Dolphins and Redskins.

2. Is Where he wants to go. If I was in his position, I would want to join a play-off ready team.

My list would be: Vikings, 49ers, and Jets.

Look how far the 49ers got with Alex Smith(he played good but not elite)

Vikings would do amazing with him. If they can sign him, and draft some lineman or sign some free agents. That is all they would need. Hopefully Peterson comes back healthy.

Jets would be a great fit. It would instantly make them a Superbowl caliber team.

The tough part about this, would be, they play the Patriots twice a year, maybe three times.

Would he want to do this to himself? I think not.

What ever team he chooses, will do better.

The issue is, even though he has been cleared to play, all it takes is one hit. That could knock him out for his career.

Who do you think? I am going with Vikings or Redskins.
