OMG, please, please, please get the season here. I can't stand all the speculation. I've stated my stance on Manning. I think he is going to be OK, but that is it. At 36, within a year of 4 neck surgeries, and missing the last 18 months of football? If indeed he is really good, it will be the first time in history a person of that age, coming off major surgery, and having missed the entire previous season, will succeed with a new team. Probably the closest was Montana when he came to KC. He was Ok, but not great. What got that team to the AFC championship game was the running game and defense. I think the chiefs and donks will fight it out for the afc west, with one of them winning it at 10-6. Both had similar seasons last year (8-8 v. 7-9) and played weak schedules. Both play tougher schedules this year and have big changes to their teams from last. Should be interesting to say the least.
