John Fox shoots back at Colts owner Jim Irsay for ‘disappointing and inappropriate’ comments on Peyton Manning

If Irsay thinks the Colts would have won one Super Bowl or been to the playoffs close to 11 times (or had that great new stadium) without Manning, he has lost his mind. There's one main reason his team is a contender again, and that's because it had the good fortune to get the first pick and land once-in-a-generation quarterback prospect Andrew Luck. The thought that Manning kept the Colts from winning more than one title is flat out wrong. Irsay probably was focused on the thought that the Colts were better off moving on from Manning because he took up a lot of their salary-cap and they wanted a more balanced roster, because he couldn't possibly have meant what his quotes appear to be saying. Irsay knows better. And it's not like the Colts have reinvented football the last couple years without Manning; they just happened to fall into another great quarterback.

But if nothing else, it adds a little more tension to Manning's return to Indianapolis.
