Peyton Manning for Jake Delhomme? I think Dungy made a big mistake keeping Manning and not signing Delhomme. Peyton chokes in the playoffs every year and this year was no different.

Jake is CLEARLY a better decision maker when under pressure. Well, maybe the Colts have learned their lesson about Peyton Manning.

This one is for you Billy :

New England and Carolina are going to play for the Super Bowl title in two weeks because they found quarterbacks who allowed them to save money at football's most expensive position, and spend the money they saved on the side of the ball where money goes farthest, defense.

The previous three Super Bowls have been won by Tampa Bay, New England and Baltimore, all of whom rested their reputations on their defenses. Their quarterbacks were journeyman Brad Johnson, second-year pro and former sixth-round draft choice Tom Brady, and the previously laughable Trent Dilfer.

Who will it be this year? Jake Delhomme? Would that do it? Delhomme is a $1.8 million cap hit and Manning is a $15.4 million kick in the teeth. Is that enough to finally get the message across? Probably not.

And let's not forget the Saintsfan link: http://www.jaguars.com/

Hope that answered it for you Billy ..... ;)
