Pete Carroll: Manning called me
22 Mar 2012When word came out last week that the San Francisco 49ers were interested in Peyton Manning, ESPN’s report included this bit about the Seahawks’ interest: “Manning first visited the Broncos March 9, followed by a visit to the Cardinals, but there were other unreported developments last weekend, such as the Seattle Seahawks parking a jet [...]

The Seahawks are not in the Peyton Manning sweepstakes, but what if they could get a good quarterback out of it anyway?

Just two weeks after former Seahawks Rocky Bernard (2002-08) and Deon Grant (2007-09) earned Super Bowl rings as members of the Giants in [...]
Even in the unlikely event that the Indianapolis Colts cut ties with Peyton Manning, let’s eliminate one team from any possible courtship right now. We can tell you there is a 100 percent chance that the Seahawks will have zero interest in Manning if he is let go by the Colts. And we would 100 [...]
Peyton Manning’s future is completely unknown right now, but the possibility that the Colts will cut him rather than pay a $28 million bonus on March 8 has spawned all kinds of speculation about other teams trying to acquire him. One thing seems quite clear: Manning will not be traded. Not because Colts owner Jim [...]
