Peyton is learning the Foxy philosophy quick

Those picks weren't due to his arm strength, they were bad decisions. Manning was straight up fooled by the Falcons hiding extra defensive backs behind LBs. Even if those throws were perfect they would have been picked.

I disagree. They were late or short and didn't have enough zing to get there. I think he may have been fooled to some extent but go look at the replays, at least 2 of the 4 were woefully short being picked off 5-10 yards in front of the receiver. He has never had the strongest arm but the problem has been exacerbated by the fact he is only 80% of what he was.

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
