The old bag o' bones wants to keep playing per Adam Schefter.

More power to him, but I think it's kinda sad. I would have never believed that Peyton Manning was a guy that would keep playing after everyone and their mama has literally seen his skills diminish. The juxtaposition from then until now is too obvious.

I dont get it, even when he's playing like garbage he still won the SB, in 10/15 years time nobody will remember how bad he was and just remember he went out on top, why would you want to ruin that for the sake of one more year?

This.  He fell backasswards into a 2nd ring on the back of a great D and a Panthers team that decided to turn the ball over at every opportunity.  He had a terrible season statistically.  The Broncos are probably gonna want to move on anyway.

I can understand the money, but the nfl gave him a super bowl..  Get the fug out 

Pro football is like a drug.

Relatively few guys retire on top. More often than not, good players stay around at least one year too long.

    • Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding. 
    • Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership
    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
